## Description

Cookie Consent Hub is a WordPress plugin that connects your site to the
 [CookieConsentHub](https://cookieconsenthub.com)
service. It provides:

 * **Cookie consent banner** — Customizable from your CookieConsentHub dashboard
 * **Server-side script blocking** — Rewrites third-party scripts before they reach
   the browser
 * **Cache compatible** — Works with WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, LiteSpeed Cache,
   and WP Super Cache
 * **Regional targeting** — Show banners only to EU, US, EEA+UK, or Brazil visitors,
   or globally
 * **Google Consent Mode v2** — Supported via the CDN script and GTM integration

#### Requirements

This plugin is a client for a third-party service and does nothing on its own. It

requires:

 * A [CookieConsentHub](https://cookieconsenthub.com) account with an active subscription
 * An API key generated from your CookieConsentHub dashboard

See **External services** below for exactly what data is sent where.

#### How It Works

 1. Install and activate the plugin — activation opens a short setup flow
 2. Paste the API key from your CookieConsentHub dashboard
 3. Choose who sees the banner, where it sits, and whether trackers are blocked
 4. The plugin loads your own home page and confirms the banner is actually live

You can re-run those settings any time from **Settings > Cookie Consent Hub**, which

also has a “Check my banner is live” button for when something looks wrong.

### External services

This plugin relies on the third-party service **CookieConsentHub**
 (https://cookieconsenthub.
com) and does not function without it. Nothing is sent anywhere until you enter 
an API key and click Connect.

**1. Connecting your site — `POST https://cookieconsenthub.com/api/wp/validate`**

Fires once, when an administrator clicks “Connect” on the settings screen. Sends
the
 API key you pasted. Receives your site’s banner configuration, script URL, 
and subscription status. No visitor data is involved.

**2. Syncing settings — `PATCH https://cookieconsenthub.com/api/wp/settings`**

Fires when an administrator finishes the setup wizard or clicks “Sync to Dashboard”.

Sends the API key and the banner settings shown on the settings screen (enabled,
region, position). No visitor data is involved.

**3. The consent banner script — loaded from `https://cdn.cookieconsenthub.com`**

Once connected, the plugin adds a `<script>` tag to the front end of your site. 
This
 script runs in each visitor’s browser and contacts CookieConsentHub directly.
It affects your visitors, so it is described in full:

 * `GET https://cookieconsenthub.com/api/customization/{site-id}` — fetches the 
   banner
    text, colors, and behavior you configured. Sends your site identifier
   only.
 * `GET https://cookieconsenthub.com/api/geo-country` — resolves the visitor’s country
   
   so that region-restricted banners are shown to the right people. The visitor’s
   IP address reaches CookieConsentHub as part of this request and is used to derive
   the country. If your banner region is set to “Global”, this lookup is not needed.
 * `POST https://cookieconsenthub.com/api/consentlog/{site-id}` — records the consent
   
   choice so you have an auditable log, as GDPR requires. Sent only after a visitor
   interacts with the banner. Includes: the accept/reject action, which categories
   were granted, the page URL the choice was made on, an expiry timestamp, a generated
   event identifier, and the browser language, platform, and user agent string.

If you deactivate the plugin, the script tag is removed and none of the above occurs.

CookieConsentHub is the only service this plugin contacts. The tracker blocker holds
a
 list of third-party domain names — `connect.facebook.net`, `googletagmanager.
com/gtag`, intercom.io and so on — and the settings screen prints that same list
under “What gets blocked”. Those are patterns matched against script tags your site
is already serving, so they can be switched off until a visitor agrees. They are
not destinations: the plugin sends no request to any of them, and adding one to 
the list is what stops it loading.

## FAQ

### Do I need a CookieConsentHub account?

Yes. The plugin connects to the CookieConsentHub service to load your consent banner

configuration and customizations, and to handle consent logging. See the External
services section above for what that entails.

### Does it work with caching plugins?

Yes. The plugin is designed to work with WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, LiteSpeed Cache,

and WP Super Cache. Scripts are blocked server-side so the cached HTML already has
scripts in a blocked state.

### What scripts are blocked?

Google Analytics (including the GA4 gtag loader), Facebook Pixel, TikTok Pixel,

LinkedIn Insight Tag, Hotjar, Mixpanel, Intercom, Zendesk, HubSpot, and other common
tracking scripts. Scripts are categorized as analytics, marketing, or personalization.
The full list is shown on the plugin’s settings screen.

### Is the Google Tag Manager container blocked?

No, and deliberately. Consent Mode v2 works by letting the GTM container load and
then
 signalling the visitor’s consent state to it, so that GTM itself withholds
the tags that need consent. Blocking `gtm.js` outright would stop those signals 
from ever being delivered. Tags loaded directly rather than through GTM are still
blocked as listed above.

### Does server-side blocking slow down my site?

Scripts added through the normal WordPress queue are rewritten as WordPress prints
each
 one, which costs almost nothing. On WordPress 6.9 and later there is additionally
one pass over the finished page; responses with no script tag at all are skipped
entirely, and on a cached site that pass runs once per cache build rather than once
per visitor. If you would rather not have it, turn the option off — the banner script
still blocks trackers in the browser.

### What is not blocked server-side?

Only scripts registered through WordPress’s own script queue can be rewritten as
they
 are printed. These cannot, and are left to the banner to hold back in the 
browser:

 * Tracking code pasted directly into a theme file or a theme “header scripts” setting
 * Tags another plugin prints into the page instead of queueing them
 * Tags inside post or page content, such as a Custom HTML block
 * Tags a script loads after the page has already reached the browser

On WordPress 6.9 and later, WordPress can also hand the plugin the finished page,
which
 covers the first three of those before anything is sent. Some page builders
and performance plugins switch that off for the whole site — Elementor is one — 
and on earlier WordPress versions it does not exist at all. In those cases the tags
are held in the browser by the banner instead. Either way, running any of the four
supported caching plugins also hands the plugin the whole page while the cache is
being built.

### Where do I customize the banner design?

In the CookieConsentHub dashboard. The settings screen in WordPress covers the few

options that need to be available locally; everything else lives in the dashboard.
