Hi, the extra styling elements for the Cookie Consent Bar, Cookie Dismiss Button and Cookie Consent Link and Info Button stopped working with the update to 4.6. They either don’t have an impact on the styling at all anymore, or only partially. Like e.g. the Cookie Consent Bar background color, if you change it, it will only cover a part of the background of the bar, not the full bar. Button stylings don’t work at all.
I experience that issue on various websites I maintain, all running WP 5.2.3, PHP 7.3, tested in latest versions of Firefox, Chrome and Edge.
I had the hope this would be fixed with 4.6.3.1 but it wasnt, all versions since 4.6 have this problem. I reverted the sites to 4.5.7 until this is fixed.
Can you confirm and provide a temporary fix or give at least a rough date for the release of 4.6.4?
Thank you very much!
Hey L+T,
Could you post a link to where we can see the problem in question please? We can give you some custom CSS to use.
Best regards,
RikardHi Rikard, sorry for my belated reply. Like I wrote, I went back to using 4.5.7, so far I only have a local testing area. Basically I want to alter all colors of the background of the bar itself, the button colors and the button’s frame color’s. Probably I will have to alter the fonts as well.
Maybe you can give me some custom CSS to start with and I take it from there as good as I can.
Will this be fixed in 4.6.4?
Thanks a lot and best regards?
Hi,
Thank you for contacting us. Please refer to the docs https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/privacy-cookies/#how-to-style-the-message-bar
You can change most of the styling from Advanced options. You may not see the changes until the cached files are cleared in your browser.
Please perform the below steps to clear the browser cache:
1. Disable “merging and compression” for CSS and JS files from Enfold > Performance.
2. If a caching plugin is installed check the plugin settings and clear the cache and deactivate the plugins for testing purpose.
3. Hard refresh by pressing Ctrl + Shift + F5 on your browser or press the F12 key to open chrome dev tools and right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”.
If yous till have an issue please share the link to your site so we can inspect and help you better.
Best regards,
VinayHi Vinay, thanks, I am aware of the advanced styling options, and I think that something indeed is wrong with those since the upudate to 4.6. Your suggestion partially did the job and I could alter some elements. But not all of them. For example,the background doesn’t fully accept the defined color from the background color setting in the options. It builds like a rectangle around the text of the cookie bar, the rest around remains dark transparent. In various other threads here on the forum I found custom CSS to solve this. But the advanced styling options won’t work. I also couldn’t change the frame color of the Link and Info button, but for the Dismiss button it worked. Again: I followed all your steps, part of the cookie bar can be altered by using the advanced styling options, other parts cannot.
I hope that gives you some information to look into it. It worked before and still works in 4.5.7. And sorry, I still cannot show you the problem, like I said, I only have a local testing area which runs all latest possible versions of PHP etc.So that won’t cause the issue, I could reproduce it on live sites before I switched back to 4.5.7.
Thanks a lot for looking into it. I know it’s not a showstopper, however that advanced styling options are helpful and should work flawlessly, right?
Hi,
Thank you for the update.
The default style of the cookie bar overrides the advanced styling. Please use the following css code temporarily to change the background color of the consent bar.
#top .avia-cookie-consent { background-color: #0011ff; }We’ll forward the issue to the dev team.
Best regards,
Ismael
