    Hi Daan!

    Just wondering if you have plans to implement Opt-out Google Analytics anytime soon?
    Btw, awesome GDPR compliant update! Keep it up!

    Please read the article on my blog on how to setup a cookie notice. The plugin that I made CAOS compatible with already supports adding an opt-out button, by inserting the shortcode [delete_link] inside your cookie template!

    Hi,

    Edit: The shortcode [delete_link] doesn’t seem to work on the cookie template. I did use the same GDPR Cookie plugin on your blog but it didn’t work. I’m currently using CAOS v.1.55
    https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/cookie-law-info/

    The code [delete_cookies] also doesn’t remove _gat on the browser cookies.

    It’s correct that it doesn’t delete those cookies. It deletes the cookie in which the user’s consent is given, which triggers the ga_disable-function in your Analytics tracking code. This blocks the cookie from sending any data to Analytics.

    Hi,

    I did try to accept/reject alongside with realtime analytics but it is still tracking the activity. Note that I’m the only active user accessing the test site.
    Could you please try to debug or replicate the issue?

    Thank you.
