Agreed. But if it’s not implemented by 25th May 2018 (22nd as I write this), they missed the boat and we have to go buy another plugin which can do it 🙁
I really hope we see an update any day now?
Well given that the plugin is free, every effort to make it better and better is highly appreciated. My previous comment was a sort of suggestion, not a request to fix a bug in a well-paid pro service. I’ve not lost my faith yet hahahah
You must consider that also most of other cookie plugins have the same limit, apart from Cookiebot that is expensive for small online projects, and I’ve always preferred Cookie Notice up to now.
I tried by myself the solution suggested by @danielez15 here but I’m not pretty sure it works perfectly, but it’s a very good step on the right direction.
Hope that developers could implement that features very soon.
Keep in mind sometimes you cannot simply put all non-functional cookies to block in there: think about youtube embedded video, social share, map which load later as body content or after mouse events.
Sometimes you can call external APIs without cookies (new maps ones, youtube-nocookies.com, etc), but sometimes you can’t.
Using an ajax call means you need to unlock all these cookies on the success event. Hard enough.
Reloading the page, on the other side, lets you handle every cookie policy by working on specific elements once it’s loaded (for example by overriding shortcodes of js composer in yout theme).
Just a thought
You are right, but there is no need to block all cookies, including the ones from third-parties as Youtube or Vimeo. I was relating to the cookies like Pixel Facebook loaded by the site itself… or Google Analytics code when anonymize function is not used. In these cases cookies must be blocked until users give their consent: this is when ajax reload should work.
Cheers.
