Thank you for sharing the solution, let us know if we can help with anything else.
Hi @arvindkumar0821,
I’m sorry about the confusion here. The free version of Search & Replace Everything includes full previews of the before and after based on the query. From what you are describing, it sounds like you ran into a conflict that prevented our plugin from displaying the text. If you can share more details we’d be happy to help you find a solution here using the free plugin.
Please reach out either in the support threads here or using the form at https://wpcode.com/contact and we’ll get this sorted.
Hi @joycegrace,
Thank you for sharing those details. If you are loading GA through GTM, the steps outlined above will not work. Script blocking only works for scripts loaded directly on the website. GTM is always loaded by default, as GTM on its own does not include any cookies or tracking. In most cases, scripts loaded through GTM are controlled using Google Consent Mode (advanced).
In your case, if you would rather not load GA automatically and use the consent signals from Google Consent Mode you can configure the GA4 tag to be loaded based on the banner following the steps in this article: https://wpconsent.com/docs/how-to-trigger-google-tag-manager-tags-based-on-user-consent/
You can change the trigger for the GA4 tag to the WPConsent event as outlined in the article and only based on the statistics variable.
We are working on making this process easier to set up with a template that is not yet available.
Hi @joycegrace,
Can you please share the other settings in WPConsent for your website? Specifically, if you are using “Default allow”.
This behavior also depends on how Google Analytics is loaded on your page: are you adding GA using a plugin or directly in the theme header? Or is GA loaded through Google Tag Manager?
You can always reach out using the form at https://wpconsent.com/contact if you want to share your website URL with us privately.
Thanks
Hi @joycegrace,
If you have Script Blocking enabled and disable the Google Consent Mode option in the WPConsent settings, WPConsent will block Google Analytics scripts loaded directly on the page like any other script. This will match the Basic Consent Mode behavior.
You are right that in Basic mode, no data is sent until the user clicks Accept since the script is not loaded at all. In Advanced mode, cookie-less pings will be sent to Google to track events.
Regarding compliance for your site/jurisdiction: we can’t provide legal advice, so if you’re unsure about specific compliance rules for your region, a quick chat with a legal expert is your best bet.
Hello @chopperpl,
Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry to hear about your frustration, but I would like to clarify a misunderstanding regarding the features of the free version.
The plugin is NOT locked to English.
You can manually translate or customize every single text string directly within the free plugin settings. We do not restrict this feature at all. You can use the free version to translate the banner and all other strings into any language you wish.
The premium version is only required for automatic translations (where the plugin translates it for you, which has underlying costs) and multilanguage setups (e.g. if you need to run a single site in English, German, and French simultaneously).
If you are running a standard site in a specific language, you can translate all the content for free. If you are having trouble locating the text input fields for some content in the settings, please open a support thread, and we will happily guide you to them.
We hope you might reconsider your review once you see that the features you are looking for are actually free.
Hi @harrydevries,
WPConsent uses a web standard called Shadow DOM that enables the banner to have its styling isolated from the rest of the page. This provides a consistent experience across all themes/websites.
CSS changes are still possible using part attributes and CSS variables. You can find more details on how to style elements using part attributes in this article: https://wpconsent.com/docs/how-to-customize-the-wpconsent-banner-with-css/
For example to target the accept button hover styles you can use this selector:
#wpconsent-container::part(wpconsent-button-accept):hover{}Hi @verselabwp,
Thank you for reaching out. We have a fix for this issue that will be included in the next release.
Hi @steveforeman,
I’m sorry about the confusion here. Essential cookies by definition do not require consent. If you decide to block reCAPTCHA before consent, we have to associate the scripts with one of the categories that are blocked.
Deciding if you have to block reCAPTCHA before consent is up to you. Since this is an external service, managed by a 3rd party, we can’t make any statements as to what they are using their cookies for outside what they declare in their privacy policy.
You can either:
– Block reCAPTCHA before consent
– not block it like you have it set up now and list it as an essential service
– Choose an alternative that does not use cookies.Let us know if we can provide more info.
Hi @muzammilshaikh,
Thank you for reaching out, and I’m sorry about the delay here. WPConsent will show up later as it does not block the page rendering, but it needs to do some checks before the banner is displayed.
From what I can see, on the URL you shared, by the time our banner is rendered, the rest of the site is not loaded yet, so PageSpeed Insights sees that as the largest content on the page.
You can prevent this from happening by disabling the fade-in effect that your site has where no content is shown until the page is fully loaded.Let me know if that helps.
Hi @enigrusso,
Thank you for reaching out. The issue seems to be related to your site’s performance plugin that is minifying the HTML of the page and a JavaScript error is preventing the banner from being displayed.
We have received your message on our website, and we’ll reply there to help troubleshoot this further.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention; we’ll get it sorted.
I will mark this as resolved here. Please reach out using the form at https://wpconsent.com/contact if you run into other issues with this, as we are not allowed to provide support for premium features in these forums.
Thanks,
