How Do I Add Cookie Consent in WordPress?

In this article, we will be discussing how to add cookie consent in WordPress. WordPress is a popular content management system (CMS) that enables website owners to create a website from scratch, or to improve an existing one.

One of the best features of WordPress is its plugin architecture, which makes it easy to add new features to the platform.

To add cookie consent in WordPress, first you will need to install the WP Cookie Consent plugin. Once the plugin is installed, you will need to add the following lines of code to your theme’s functions.php file:

add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘cookie_consent_enqueue’ ); function cookie_consent_enqueue() { // Add your code here }

Next, you will need to add the following code to your theme’s settings.php file:

// Add your settings here wp_cookie_consent();

Finally, you will need to add a cookie consent banner to your website. To do this, you can use the Cookie Consent Banner plugin.

Once the plugin is installed, you will need to add the following code to your theme’s functions.php file:.

add_action( ‘wp_print_footer’, ‘cookie_consent_footer’ ); function cookie_consent_footer() { // Add your code here }

Now, when a user visits your website, they will be presented with a banner informing them that cookies will be saved on their computer. They will have the option to accept or decline the cookies.

If they decline the cookies, they will not be able to access certain features of your website.
