I’m also wanting to block recaptcha except on login/registration. The js libraries are killing my pagespeed. Hiding the badge won’t stop the js from loading.

As you mentioned Complianz is recommended. I have been using this from the start. It simply makes use of filters available from your plugin to allow the visitor to block the cookies. It does not create the filters for your plugin. Therfore it does not make your plugin compatible. And the API plugin is just a listing tool to show the incompatibility. Your plugin needs to declare a filter to allow the cookies to be blocked by Any cookies consent plugin. It does not. Any adjustments I make to the code would simply be overwritten on your next security patch updates. This is law. Not opinion. Not oh this would be a nice new feature to request. Although not pissing off governments is nice ?? So the question remains, do you plan to make your plugin compatible with the law? Cause millions of your end users are at risk this very moment. If needed I can probably find the filter change needed so the work is already done for you. ???♂?

Your right I did drop 11 points from not using Google analytics in any manner. But that is still a gain of 11 points from the plugin version with a 22 point drop. The website losses 22 points with your plugin and only 11 points with just manual installation.

Here’s my question, mostly curiosity. Google requires a score of 90 to be considered “good” and not just “acceptable”. So for a webmaster to get the search information about their website that Google obtains they would have to decided not to be “good” in Google’s eye. Just by using analytics? Seems like Google is frowning on it’s own service.

Have you guys thought about optimizing to atleast allow 1 or 2 points, or heck even perfection to still be called “good” and not just merely acceptable?

It just blows my mind that a webmaster could have a perfect website with a score of 100, but simply using your analytics to get the same information from Google that Google has gathered about them already they are considered merely “acceptable”. A perfect website (first we know that doesn’t exists) would be a score of 100, remove the 11 points from Google analytics and your no longer good, just “acceptable”. Mind blowing.

And as a third, I’m sure your actual web developers have some training in using cookies and sessions. Please secure your plugin as cookies are VERY insecure since users can edit them to inject malicious code into your plugin. (I saw WooCommerce in the list of 121 plugins with vulnerabilities in the last Wordfence update.) That is why most developers prefer sessions over cookies. Sessions are server side and only the server can edit them.

Please understand I am not a novice for you to send information about a plugin, Google Listings & Ads that I do not use.

Easiest way to clear a problem is to deal with the plugins in question without opening up additional irrelevant plugins. Keyword, irrelevant.

And as a courtesy you might want to invest a few minutes to transfer your “consent” to actual documentation about your plugin. Not www.ads-software.com support forum responses and off topic plugins not related directly to your plugin for other users who face these challenges.

???♂? Please read my complaint as throughly as you expect end users to read your documentation. Site Kit is the Google plugin. Googles official plugin Site Kit recommends WP Consent API. That plugin, WP Consent API is the one saying your company is refusing to comply with Cookie laws.

Screenshots:

Google Site Kit

I’m sure you are aware that WordPress default behavior does not have almost any type of privacy for the visitor. And I am assuming you are only going by the default behavior and nothing to do with official Google integrations in your previous testing message.

I am also sure you are aware Googles official plugin is Google Site Kit. I rely solely on official plugins instead of generic off brands like monster insights.

If you view the attached screenshot (and if you use the official Google plugin) you will see Google recommends WP Consent API to manage visitors being able to deny cookies. Meaning Google can readily acknowledge a website is complaint.

After you have the official Google plugin and installed their recommended plugin, visit site health were you can see the error appear. (Yes there are many many plugins that do not comply. I have and still am removing plugins that refuse to comply with Google even after being made aware.)

And there would be your answer as to how to reproduce the error. It is your decision to comply with Google suggestions or don’t and cause a big dip in serps for your users.

As for Google listings & Ads, I don’t think those have anything to do with browsing your website merely importing information into Google. I am not sure why you felt that plugin would be relevant other than hearing the name “google” in the title.

And last but not least, you are aware of the security risks in relying on Cookies instead of Sessions. As cookies can be modified by the visitor and Sessions are strictly server side. I’m not sure why you use cookies when a secure method is available, but hey it’s your plugin.

At this point I have transferred hosts. Hostinger is the worst host I have encountered. This was just one of many issues with Hostinger. And customer support is like a dog chasing it’s tail. Round and round through their steps to contact them and it keep going round and round over and over never getting anywhere just back to the same pages. Where InMotion had my request (new dns records) replied to and solved in under 2 minutes.

IF there are further issues with my new host, I’ll let you know. But at this time dns records need to propagate etc.

I do have 1 question though. I use Cloudflare in addition. I’ve noted between the two hosts there is a connection issue. Cloudflare is blocking you guys. It’s not your fault, but any chance do you have information on how I can white list you through Cloudflare?

Thanks!

I have this same error. I cancelled the scan. Enabled Debugging and now it says Scan Stop Request Received literally as soon as I click the scan button. It runs for maybe 1 millisecond.

P.S. I verified Discourage search engines in general/reading settings was not checked

I created an account, but when trying to link the account to my wordpress it says an error occured when trying to login.

I was able to reach the sign up form, but EVERY submission came back with there was a problem processing

100% thanks

So far the only thing close is the attributes are in the wp_term_taxonomy but no other information is available for mysql

that’s not it at all. I just don’t know what table to use since none of them are labeled wc_tags. And nowhere online refers to the tags.

basically this is the information I need

mysqli_query INSERT INTO this_table VALUES(V1,V2)

That’s what I am wanting
