The problem
We are experiencing a lot of frustration from Wordpress users about not being able to integrate Cookiebot with their cookie setting plugins. Modifying plugins manually is not a sustainable approach, because new updates to these plugins will reset the changes.
We can't make the plugins GDPR compliant, the developers of the plugins have to do this themselves. You are welcome to reach out to the developers and kindly ask them if they would like to make an integration.
MonsterInsights and GADWP
MonsterInsights (MI) will be relasing a GDPR addon with support for Cookiebot. As it is the same company behind MI and GADWP, they will roll out an integration for GADWP as well. This would not have been possible if our users had not asked them to do so. Way to go to our users, and to AwesomeMotive!
I am a WP plugin developer, how can I integrate my plugin with Cookiebot?
Any developer can easily integrate Cookiebot with little effort:
$scriptTag = ”;
if(function_exists('cookiebot_active') && cookiebot_active()) {
$scriptTag = '<script'.cookiebot_assist('statistics').'>';
}
Full description of our JS API and PHP samples are available at https://github.com/CybotAS/CookiebotAddons and https://www.cookiebot.com/goto/developer/
Cookiebot's contribution/solution
To accommodate our WP users, we have started developing "Addons", which are plugins that can integrate Cookiebot with other plugins. E.g. an integration to the most popular GA plugins such as MonsterInsights, GADWP, etc.
Addons/plugins and installation instructions can be found at:
https://github.com/CybotAS/CookiebotAddons
In the future we will bundle and release the Addons as a WP plugin, which you can install and use side-by-side with Cookiebot. For now you have to install them manually. Installation instructions can be found at the Github repository.
The repository is maintained by Cybot A/S, the company behind Cookiebot, but anyone is welcome to contribute to the community.
