cookie consent buttons and link to page do not work properly in 4.6

Hi,

Sorry for this.

I fixed the bug in oncoming 4.6.2 – will be released soon.

Can you wait or do you want to update the file on your site. It’s 3 lines of code:

In file enfold\includes\helper-privacy.php around line 1579:

				case 'info_modal':
					$btn_class .= ' avia-cookie-info-btn ';
					break;
				case '':

replace with:

				case 'info_modal':
					$btn_class .= ' avia-cookie-info-btn ';
					break;
				case 'link':
					$btn_class .= ' avia-cookie-link-btn ';
					break;
				case '':

Do not forget to make a backup of the original file for a fallback, clear server and browser cache.

If you need assistance let us know so we can do it for you. Please also provide ftp access and make sure our WP account has admin rights and can edit theme files.

Hi,

The file is correct – but it has moved. In our github repo for 4.6.1 it is around line 1555.

Can you look for function msg_bar_button_html.

A few lines below there is a switch statement including the code above.

Hi,

Thanks for feedback and it solved the problem.

Did you accept cookies as admin in frontend ?

As long as you do not accept you are treated as a new visitor on every pageload.

Hi,

Thanks – this is caused because of missing cookies which are new since 4.6. You probably already accepted cookies in 4.5.7. This is a bug.

I added a fix for this in the next update.

A quick workaround would be to add a button with action “Do not accept and hide message bar” to the message bar, click this button, then open the modal window, check your settings and accept.

To fix it in core:

In file enfold\includes\helper-privacy.php around line 1366:

$cookie_contents = md5( $cookie_contents );

replace with:

$cookie_contents = md5( $cookie_contents ) . '||v1.0';

Around line 228:

			$option = $this->get_cookie_consent_message_bar_option();
			if( in_array( $option, array( 'message_bar', 'disabled' ) ) )
			{
				return;
			}

Below this insert:

			$cookie_accepted = isset( $_COOKIE['aviaCookieConsent'] );
			$cookie_allow_hide_bar = isset( $_COOKIE['aviaPrivacyRefuseCookiesHideBar'] );
			$cookie_essential_enabled = isset( $_COOKIE['aviaPrivacyEssentialCookiesEnabled'] );
			
			/**
			 * Check if we updated 
			 *		'||v1.0' from <= 4.5.7 to 4.6.2
			 */
			if( $cookie_accepted && ! ( $cookie_allow_hide_bar && $cookie_essential_enabled ) )
			{
				/**
				 * If user already accepted cookie we add our essential cookies so user can continue to use site without need to opt in for these explicit
				 */
				$cookie_accepted_value = $_COOKIE['aviaCookieConsent'];
				
				$sep = strrpos( $cookie_accepted_value, '||v' );
				
				if( false === $sep )
				{
					setcookie( 'aviaPrivacyRefuseCookiesHideBar', true, time() + YEAR_IN_SECONDS, '/' );
					setcookie( 'aviaPrivacyEssentialCookiesEnabled', true, time() + YEAR_IN_SECONDS, '/' );
				}
			}

I hope Kriesi will release 4.6.2 soon.

Do not forget to make a backup of the original file for a fallback, clear server and browser cache.
