How to deal with GDPR cookie consent?

[OCram85]

Is there a preferred way in how to deal with such requirements?

A better way to do this is to make a plugin.

I'm not familiar with the code base yet - Therefore I'm asking 🤔 : Do you think it would be possible to create a plugin which adds some frontend html and JS to display a cookie consent dialog?

[fenbox]

@OCram85 Yes, it's possible.

I've tried to get familiar with the code base and read the developer docs for creating a plugin.

If i got this right it would be some kind of standard ui plugin. But I'm nut sure about the plugin type:

Currently the front end supports the following types of plugins:

• editor
• route
• captcha

I was thinking about using something simple like https://github.com/orestbida/cookieconsent and to indicate there are just necessary cookies (e.g. session management) that answer needs and you have to accept them as user if you like to use it.

But again - I'm Looking for a solution to block the answer usage if a user opt-out the cookies

There is currently no available type, a new plugin type needs to be added.
