Exporting configuration data. / Autoptimize

    First of all, my thanks for making this plugin freely available. The plugin is indeed lightweight and blocks the relevant cookies without prior consent, making the website GDPR compliant. I wonder if it is possible to export the configuration data so that it can be used (imported) for other websites using this plugin. This is especially useful for translations that would otherwise have to be reconfigured each time. I also note that when using Autoptimize in “JavaScript Options” the “Optimize JavaScript Code?” should be left unchecked because otherwise blocking cookies will not work. Have you heard of this before and is there any solution to this problem? I am running WordPress on a LEMP platform with FastCGI cache.

    Hey, @pieterbakker!

    Thank you for your kind words and for highlighting the issue with the plugin’s functionality when used with Autoptimize, along with suggesting a workaround by unchecking the “Optimize JavaScript Code?” option.

    I wonder if it is possible to export the configuration data so that it can be used (imported) for other websites using this plugin.

    Yes, you can export your configuration to a JSON file, and import it on another website.

    1. Log in to your website
    2. Navigate to the WordPress dashboard (wp-admin)
    3. Select the Cookie Consent menu item
    4. Scroll to the down and click Export Settings to export your configuration as a JSON file

    Likewise, on the other website, click Import Settings and choose the JSON file you exported earlier to import your configuration.

    I also note that when using Autoptimize in “JavaScript Options” the “Optimize JavaScript Code?” should be left unchecked because otherwise blocking cookies will not work

    We’ve opened an issue on the plugin’s GitHub repository (#48) to track and look into this further.
