Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about CookieBoss – Cookie Consent & GDPR Compliance
Yes. The plugin loads your consent banner from the CookieBoss CDN. Create a free account at cookieboss.io/signup — no credit card required.
Log in to app.cookieboss.io, go to your site, and find the Site ID in the Installation Script section.
Yes. The free tier includes 1 domain with all core consent features. Paid plans start at €9/month for additional domains and advanced features.
When enabled, the plugin automatically prevents known tracking scripts (Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, etc.) from running until the visitor consents to the relevant cookie category. This is done by changing the script type to text/plain and adding a data-cookieconsent attribute.
Yes. The consent script and Google Consent Mode defaults are tagged with the attributes caching and JavaScript-optimization plugins look for (data-cfasync="false", data-no-optimize, data-no-minify, data-no-defer, data-noptimize), so WP Rocket, LiteSpeed Cache, W3 Total Cache, Autoptimize, SiteGround Optimizer, and Cloudflare Rocket Loader leave them alone by default. This matters: the banner must load before other scripts to hold cookies back correctly. If an aggressive "delay/defer JavaScript" setting still holds the banner back, exclude the CookieBoss script manually: WP Rocket — File Optimization: add cdn.cookieboss.io to "Excluded JavaScript Files", and add cookieboss to "Delay JavaScript execution" exclusions. LiteSpeed Cache — Page Optimization → JS Settings: add cdn.cookieboss.io to "JS Excludes" (and to the deferred/delayed excludes if enabled). W3 Total Cache — Performance → Minify: add the script to "Never minify the following JS files". Autoptimize — JavaScript Options: add cookieboss to "Exclude scripts from Autoptimize". SiteGround Optimizer / Cloudflare Rocket Loader — already skipped via data-cfasync="false"; no action needed.
Yes. The plugin injects Google Consent Mode v2 default state before any Google tags load. All consent categories are denied by default and updated when the visitor consents. This is required for Google Ads compliance in the EU.
No. The consent script is under 25KB gzipped and loaded with defer, so it doesn't block page rendering. It has zero impact on Core Web Vitals.
Yes. Enable "Admin Preview Mode" in the settings to hide the banner and unblock all scripts when logged in as an administrator. Visitors still see the banner normally.
Yes. Banner layout (bottom bar, modal, preference center), colors, text, animations, and dark mode are all configurable in the CookieBoss dashboard.
Yes. The consent banner supports 32 languages, served from the CookieBoss CDN. Configure your preferred language in the CookieBoss dashboard.
