Problems blocking embed code

Hi @panevin83,

Could you try 3.2 Block a script, iframe, or plugin on https://complianz.io/integrating-plugins/

Try to block outdooractive.com, with a Google Maps placeholder.

This should be the quickest way. Let me know!

regards Aert

HI Aert, I tried but it didn’t work… it hides everything and if I accept all cookies it does not load anything, inspecting for many errors

Hi @panevin83,

If I follow the link and see below Google Maps with the trail markers, it seems to work, maybe there was some caching issue.

You can change the dimensions of the placeholder under Settings, as the height is pretty big.

You can also create your own custom placeholder; more about that here: https://complianz.io/changing-the-google-maps-placeholder/

Hi Aert,
the problem is not Google Maps that works correctly, I can’t block the Outdooractive code ..
Here is the settings: https://freeimage.host/i/VXDQ0F
Blank page in Outdoor Active section…
how can I solve it?

Hi @panevin83,

I see what you are referring to, the behavior seems to be specific to the OutdoorActive embed. I have created a feature request to add support for this particular embed, which you can find here. We will update this when the status changes.

As a solution for now, my recommendation would be to wrap the OutdoorActive embeds in Consent Area shortcodes to block them before consent is obtained.

[cmplz-consent-area category=’marketing’ text="Enable this content by clicking this link"]

/* add your snippet here */

[/cmplz-consent-area]

For more information about this approach (and some ready-to-use CSS to style the placeholder), please refer to: https://complianz.io/wrapping-content-in-consent-shortcodes/

Kind regards,
Jarno

tnt @jarnovos , it works (temporarily)!
Not knowing what kind of cookie Outdoor active uses ( I think pref or session), does it only work with category=”marketing” or can I also add “preferences” or “statistics” (with which code)?
Thanks!

Hi @panevin83,

Thank you for confirming! And yes, you can change the consent category on which the script should be unblocked.

You can do this by modifying the category='marketing' part in the shortcode to category='statistics' for example, which will result in it being unblocked on consent for the Statistics category.

The end result after applying the above would be:

[cmplz-consent-area category='statistics' text="Enable this content by clicking this link"]

/* your snippet */

[/cmplz-consent-area]

Kind regards,
Jarno

If I put ‘statistics’ the page starts loading in loop.. and I don’t know why -_-

Hi @panevin83,

I expect this might happen as a result of caching. Could you try the below shortcode instead, which additionally has cache_redirect=true attribute added? This allows the caching tool to cache the consent page separately.

[cmplz-consent-area category='statistics' cache_redirect=true text="Enable this content by clicking this link"]

/* your snippet */

[/cmplz-consent-area]

[cmplz-consent-area category=’statistics’ cache_redirect=true text=”Accetta tutti i cookie per visualizzare correttamente questo contenuto”]

/* my snippet */

[/cmplz-consent-area]

This is my code…For now I have only edited the page in Italian.
if you want to test it go to the Hike & trail page (Italian version)
If I click on “accept all cookies” in the blocked section, It selects “Marketing” cookie even if I have put “Statistics” as category and the page loads in loop.
(I disabled WP Cache plugin)

Hi @panevin83,

I was able to reproduce the described behavior as well when changing the category in the consent-area Shortcode to “statistics” instead of “marketing”.

The plugin version attached on the GitHub link below should fix the issue. You can download this updated version by clicking the green Code button > “Download .ZIP”.

Just let me know if that works for you as well!

Kind regards,
