Hi @udvi86,

Here’s what I’ve come up with, this can go in your functions.php, essentially we look and see if the failed cookie exists and change it if it does:

// add an action to put some JS in the footer
add_action('wp_footer', 'age_gate_cookie_length');

function age_gate_cookie_length()
{
    ?>
    <script>
        (function(){
            // function to get the cookie so we can check if it's set
            function getCookie(name) {
                var nameEQ = name + "=";
                var ca = document.cookie.split(';');
                for(var i=0;i < ca.length;i++) {
                    var c = ca[i];
                    while (c.charAt(0)==' ') c = c.substring(1,c.length);
                    if (c.indexOf(nameEQ) == 0) return c.substring(nameEQ.length,c.length);
                }
                return null;
            }

            // function to set (or essentially update) the cookie
            function setCookie(name, value, time) {
                time = time || 2;
                var date = new Date();
                date.setTime(date.getTime() + (time*60*60*1000));
                expires = "; expires=" + date.toUTCString();
                document.cookie = name + "=" + value + expires + ";path=/";

            }

            /**
             * 1 is the default value set by the plugin, so if
             * it is set and equals 1, we change the value and
             * also set the length to what we need.
             * Now the value is 2, it won't do this again
             */
            if (parseInt(getCookie('age_gate_failed')) === 1) {
                setCookie('age_gate_failed', 2, 2);
            }
        })();
    </script>

    <?php
}

That’s a fair bit of code for the footer, so here’s a version of the function with it minified, just pick the above or below, which ever you want:

add_action('wp_footer', 'age_gate_cookie_length');

function age_gate_cookie_length()
{
    ?>
    <script>
        !function(){1===parseInt(function(e){for(var t=e+"=",n=document.cookie.split(";"),i=0;i<n.length;i++){for(var r=n[i];" "==r.charAt(0);)r=r.substring(1,r.length);if(0==r.indexOf(t))return r.substring(t.length,r.length)}return null}("age_gate_failed"))&&function(e,t,n){n=n||2;var i=new Date;i.setTime(i.getTime()+60*n*60*1e3),expires="; expires="+i.toUTCString(),document.cookie=e+"="+t+expires+";path=/"}("age_gate_failed",2,2)}();
    </script>

    <?php
}

Thanks
