Our.Umbraco.CookieConsent 0.0.3

Our.Umbraco.CookieConsent

Easily add a configurable cookie consent banner to your Umbraco site. Features include a dashboard for customizing behavior, appearance, and translations, using the Orestbida/CookieConsent library.

Configuration

1. Access the dashboard
   Navigate to the Settings tab in the Umbraco Backoffice, and then select the Cookie Consent dashboard to manage all settings related to your banner.

2. Customize appearance and behavior
   Use the dashboard to configure:

   • Position of the banner on your site.
   • Categories of cookies to display.
   • Layout and styles to match your site’s design.
   • ...

3. Manage translations

   • Translations for the popup text can be managed in the Translations section of Umbraco, under the key Our.Umbraco.CookieConsent.
   • The available languages for the cookie consent popup depend on the languages configured for your Umbraco site.

4. Render the banner in your layout To display the cookie banner on your website, add the following line in your main layout file (_Layout.cshtml or equivalent):

   @await Component.InvokeAsync("Cookie")
   

Scripts by category

You can define custom scripts that are injected only after user consent, based on the selected cookie category (e.g. Analytics, Marketing, etc.).

To do so:

• Navigate to the "Scripts" section in the dashboard
• Add a new entry with the target category (Analytics, Marketing, etc.)
• Paste your script using safe JS, such as dynamic script injection

Important: HTML <script> tags cannot be directly used inside JavaScript blocks. Instead, use JavaScript to create and inject scripts dynamically.

Example: Google Analytics script

    var gtagScript = document.createElement('script');
    gtagScript.src = 'https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-CN4GDXXXXX';
    gtagScript.async = true;
    document.head.appendChild(gtagScript);

    gtagScript.onload = function () {
        window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
        function gtag(){ dataLayer.push(arguments); }
        window.gtag = gtag;

        gtag('js', new Date());
        gtag('config', 'G-XXXX');
    };

This logic will only be executed if the user accepts the analytics category
