CookieBot breaking my dynamic menu based on language selection)
Completed
My website is hosted by weebly and I have added in the cookiebot script as required and the function for asking for permissions for cookies works perfectly. However, I also have a plug in https://app.multilanguage.xyz/ that deals with language selection. The cookiebot script is breaking this plug in and not allowing the dynamic menus to show properly unless ALL cookies are accepted. I have tried each individually and none on their own allow the menu to work properly. The language selection is a function of the site and not for marketing etc so should not be stopped by cookiebot.
Cookiebot is stopping the js libraries
I have spoken with the app provider but they can not fix the issue it needs to be fixed by cookiebot. I have temporarily removed cookiebot so that my website works but can put it back to demonstrate the issue if someone picks this up and can help me.
Please can you help me rectify this ASAP

HI Ralph!
I can see you also wrote to us in support and my colleague Patrick already replied. Please reopen the support ticket if you have any other questions.
You can find the reply again below:
What you describe is a sense, expected behavior. The cookies that the script sets are deemed not-essential by our scanner. In this case you can do two things:
- Change the classification of the cookie inside the Cookiebot Manager from whatever it is, to 'Necessary'.
- If the above does not work, you can add an attribute to the script that tells the scanner to ignore it, like so:
<script src="https://app.multilanguage.xyz/media/snippets/multilanguage_15774.js" data-cookieconsent="ignore"></script>
It's important for me to state that both solution may compromise your GDPR compliance, so proceed at your own risk. :)0
