[ADDON] Cookie Consent

Simple-ish addon which puts a pop up letting people know you use cookies on your website and will unset the PHPSESSID cookie if you have'nt acknowledged the notice. It does mean you get errors when you're logged in as a user and haven't accepted but not sure how to get around that one yet!

You have accepted cookies when you log on anyway so might assume if you're logged in you accept the notice. If anyone has a better idea let me know and I'll adapt the mod to support that.

For now it's available at the following url:

I thought I had searched to see if anyone else had done one!

Is that just for SMF or also for Elkarte?

I obviously don't know how to use the search functionality properly.... I'm sure nothing turned up when I did try and search! That mod has a GEOIP lookup, I never bothered with that as well everyone might as well consent.

unless there is just the session cookie, such an addon is not needed, at least in Europe and under the new laws. Cookie agreements are necessary as soon as other cookies are loaded, last but not least 3rd party cookies.

According the GDPR, Cookies MUST accepted before set .. means you need a OPTIN !!!
Many are stubborn in relation to the path, a few in relation to the target.

No non essential cookies must be accepted. Essential cookies are exempt.

The first version doesn't have the GEOIP lookup, then I later try to upgrade it as people from non-eu might not want to it but the later version of 1.0.2 is so buggy I just abandoned it.
