Theme Integration Tips

Hi @ianmac2,

We are currently working on documentation with instructions like this.

For now, you need to include checkboxes for your registered consent types.

When users register through your custom form, you need to hook your checkboxes and save them as a usermeta.

The meta key is gdpr_consents and the value is the consent id. Like privacy-policy.

I’ll try and push a documentation page with code samples today to help you out.

Thanks for the reply I will take a look at our registration form php template – we also have pre-existing registered members, can confirmation request be applied to those existing users who log in e.g.

Given existing User logs in
And user has no recorded consent
Then present dialog with policy review and agreement options

Thanks – I

Hi @ianmac2,

This is already the plugin behavior.

Whenever a user login we check if a privacy-policy consent is present. If not, we present a window asking for consent. Same window that appears if you update your privacy policy and request your users to consent to the updated policy.

Hi Fernando

Thank you! I can now see that when I login I get the Privacy Policy opt-in displayed.

However I noticed that when the opt-in screen is displayed the user is still able to access their WP dashboard view and make use of any functionality available.

Also it would be nice if the opt-in display on login can be disabled for admins.

Best -I

Hi @ianmac2,
Someone pointed out that the admin bar was sitting on top so people could go in.
I already fixed this and it will be available in the next update.

Unfortunately, I can’t disable this for admins. They also need to consent. Admins are also protected under this law and we need to make sure everybody gives explicit consent.
