cookie-law-info/cookie-law-info/legacy/public/modules/shortcode/shortcode.phpCookie Law Info [cookie_accept] Shortcode
The Cookie Law Info plugin shortcode, ‘cookie_accept’, is used to generate a customizable ‘Accept’ button for cookie consent on a website. The shortcode allows customization of the button’s color and margin. By default, it sets the button color to green and does not apply any margin. However, these attributes can be modified according to user preference. The generated button is compliant with accessibility standards, featuring a role attribute and a tabindex. It also includes a ‘data-cli_action’ attribute set to ‘accept’, which triggers the acceptance of cookies when the button is clicked.
Shortcode: [cookie_accept]
Parameters
Here is a list of all possible cookie_accept shortcode parameters and attributes:
colour– Sets the colour of the accept buttonmargin– Specifies the margin around the accept button
If no params are used in the shortcode, the accept button will default to green with no specified margin. This means the button will adopt the default margin styles from your website’s CSS.
Examples and Usage
Basic example – A simple usage of the ‘cookie_accept’ shortcode without any additional parameters. By default, it will generate a green ‘Accept’ button.
[cookie_accept /]Advanced examples
Changing the color of the ‘Accept’ button to red. This is achieved by using the ‘colour’ parameter within the shortcode.
[cookie_accept colour="red" /]Setting a specific margin for the ‘Accept’ button. This is done by using the ‘margin’ parameter within the shortcode. The value of the margin should be specified in CSS format.
[cookie_accept margin="10px 20px" /]Combining both the ‘colour’ and ‘margin’ parameters to customize the ‘Accept’ button. This will generate a red ‘Accept’ button with a specific margin.
