The new WP Cookie Consent dashboard displays all the vital information you need at a glance.
The WP Cookie Consent contains a progress circle for guiding you through the next steps, showing important links at your fingertips, useful tips and tricks, and other valuable plugins from WPeka.
The dashboard includes 4 sections – Your Progress, Quick Links, Tips and Tricks, and Other Plugins.
Your Progress #
This section ensures you are guided through the next important steps after installing the WP cookie consent plugin on your website. The progress circle will reach 100% when all 5 requirements are met. Let’s look into the 5 requirements in detail:
- Ensure no other cookie plugin is installed on your WordPress to avoid conflict. If any cookie plugin is already installed, you can deactivate it.
- Scan for cookies on your website. Note that this is a pro feature and can be accessed only by upgrading to the pro version of the plugin. Click on the ‘Upgrade to pro’ to access this feature.
- Ensure that the cookie notice appears on your website.
- Install and activate the WP Pro plugin.
- Enable geotargeting with MaxMind Integration. This is also a pro feature, which can be accessed after upgrading to the pro version. Click on ‘Upgrade to pro’ to access this feature. After installing and activating the pro version, click on the ‘click here to configure’ link to configure this setting.
