I am looking forward to the plugin update, If I am not mistaken an option will be added so if the user consents the page is refreshed then the visit is tracked.

Big kudos. We are all looking forward to the plugin update. ??

Following. I have also done a lot of research and testing of different plugins and systems for this GDPR stuff but this is the best I’ve seen so far. I am also refreshing the page constantly to see if the update is up. I am pretty confident it will rock and that we will have the options needed.

De acuerdo con @bonaldi. Este es el mejor hasta ahora. La nueva version promete ser mas fácil e intuitiva.

Hello, I am not associated with the plugin developers. I did the same thing on my site with the shortcode they provide.

[gdpr_preferences text=”Privacy Preferences”]

Do you still have access to the WP hosting? One way could be to make access the DB and export an SQL backup. If the provider already pointed to the new hosting I don’t think there is a way to retrieve that data.

Thanks, Fernando.

Awesome explanation Fernando. I really appreciate it. My question comes because I am not really a developer so I am trying to avoid getting into the code for the purpose of the cookies. I have to replicate the settings on 10 more sites too. We do not really get personal information until the visitor wants to do a transaction on our sites.
Another question I have. I have a coworker who gets greeted by the “privacy Policy pop up” and on another computer, the user does not get it. What’s your take on that? any reason why that could be happening? Thanks for this awesome plugin and thanks for your responses.

@fclaussen I have a similar issue. In my case, the banner is conflicting with LiveChat. I did Z index but works for some time and then goes back to normal. Any idea how to fix. Thanks in advance

This might be a dumb question @fclaussen. So we register a cookie then we have to add the lines of code? Thanks

I think people are so used to plug and play WordPress plugins :/

Don’t lose heart guys, the plugin is awesome.

I still consider that if the issue is that big, it will be great if we could get a solution at the browser’s level. That could present a happy world!. Even if this, not the right forum, let’s keep everyone posted in as many forums as we can, especially for small website owners and small companies it is very beneficial. Thanks

I have found a couple on Codecanyon. Not sure if they deliver the way they say they will. I am not affiliated with them and have not tried them just yet.

We are all in the same boat. Personally, I think it is all big government business. The good news is that WordPress team is already working something out, let’s hope everything gets sorted. Here is the link

I think it is a great plugin, very well developed and with great functionality from the get-go. The plugin does exactly what it says it does, the rest we have to do it ourselves for each of the sites. @simon3333 is right, there is a market for more plugins that solve the compliance issue, but the truth is that any plugin will hardly be a 100% solution. I saw more plugins on several marketplaces, but at the end, all of the terminology and the functionality required by that law will fall under the site owner. On a personal level, I think the functionality should reside at the browser level, that way everybody will be compliant.
