From cookie notice to visitor settings

EU Cookies Bar for WordPress Premium provides a configurable cookie bar and a settings panel where users can read the site’s cookie information, accept or decline, and change their selections later. A small bar at the bottom of the page can reopen the settings. To place a settings link or text elsewhere, use [eucookiesbar_settings]Your text[/eucookiesbar_settings].

Add a privacy policy explanation and a list of cookies used by the site. Set how long an accepted agreement lasts, and choose whether cookies are blocked until a visitor accepts. Strictly necessary cookies can be marked as non-disableable, with name prefixes available for cookies that should remain enabled. Premium adds language detection, multilingual support and an expiration period for cookie rejections.

Cookie entries and consent rules

Premium can scan the site to detect cookies and display cookie information on the front end and in the back end. Administrators can add, edit or delete entries, including each cookie’s name, category, duration and description. Create categories with names and descriptions, assign cookies to them, mark selected cookies as Always Active, and rearrange categories by dragging and dropping.

Bar and popup controls

Edit the front-end message with the WordPress editor and choose a bar position: top, bottom, bottom left or bottom right. The bar can include decline and close buttons. Its implicit behavior can be configured so closing, scrolling or refreshing accepts or declines according to the selected option. Appearance settings include font size, text and background colors, opacity and a custom CSS field.

Premium adds a header title, control over the privacy button’s appearance, a delay before the bar appears, a dismissal timeout and conditional tags for controlling where the bar appears. For the settings popup, choose a layout, show cookies as a list or tabs, add custom icons and adjust opacity. Options control whether the cookie list, descriptions or specific categories appear. You can also configure the save, accept and reject buttons, edit overview text and headings, and set labels for cookie names, descriptions, Always Active and Active Cookie sections.

Tracking, access and reports

Premium integrates with Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel for tracking. Position the floating icon and choose which icon it uses to give visitors quick access to cookie settings. Activity logs let administrators view interactions with the consent mechanism, and detailed reports summarize cookie consent performance.

Installation and setup

Upload the add-on to the WordPress extensions directory, activate it from the Plugins menu, then open its settings to configure the bar, visitor choices, cookie categories, popup and access icon. Add the shortcode wherever visitors need a direct settings link. Configure Premium’s language settings, integrations, logs and reports in the plugin settings.
