how can i move the js script avia_cookie_check_sessionStorage () in the footer?

Hey Demia87,

Thank you for the inquiry.

We can nullify the original script by adding this script in the functions.php file.

// a custom script
// disable avia_cookie_check_sessionStorage
function ava_custom_script_mod_cookie_check() {
    if ( wp_script_is( 'avia-default', 'registered' ) ) {
        wp_add_inline_script( 'avia-default', '
		window.avia_cookie_check_sessionStorage = null;
	');
    }
 }
 add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'ava_custom_script_mod_cookie_check', 9999);

Then use this code to add the script back to the footer. Please note that the original function will still exist but it should not work because it’s already nulled.

 
/**
 * Add a script that removes the class av-cookies-user-silent-accept if local browser session has the cookie set
 * that user refused cookies. This is a fallback for enfold\js\avia-snippet-cookieconsent.js
 * 
 * As FF throws an error when cookies are disabled we have to add this workaround.
 * 
 * @since 4.6.4
 */
function avia_cookie_check_session_storage_mod()
{
	$privacy = av_privacy_helper();

	$option = $privacy->get_cookie_consent_message_bar_option();
	if( 'disabled' == $option )
	{
		return;
	}

	$output  = '';
	$output .= "
		<script type='text/javascript'>

		function avia_cookie_check_sessionStorage_mod()
		{
			//	FF throws error when all cookies blocked !!
			var sessionBlocked = false;
			try
			{
				var test = sessionStorage.getItem( 'aviaCookieRefused' ) != null;
			}
			catch(e)
			{
				sessionBlocked = true;
			}
			
			var aviaCookieRefused = ! sessionBlocked ? sessionStorage.getItem( 'aviaCookieRefused' ) : null;
			
			var html = document.getElementsByTagName('html')[0];

			/**
			 * Set a class to avoid calls to sessionStorage
			 */
			if( sessionBlocked || aviaCookieRefused )
			{
				if( html.className.indexOf('av-cookies-session-refused') < 0 )
				{
					html.className += ' av-cookies-session-refused';
				}
			}
			
			if( sessionBlocked || aviaCookieRefused || document.cookie.match(/aviaCookieConsent/) )
			{
				if( html.className.indexOf('av-cookies-user-silent-accept') >= 0 )
				{
						html.className = html.className.replace(/\bav-cookies-user-silent-accept\b/g, '');
				}
			}
		}

		avia_cookie_check_sessionStorage_mod();

	</script>
	";

	echo $output;
}

 add_action("init", function() {
	add_action( 'wp_footer', 'avia_cookie_check_session_storage_mod', 10 );
 }, 25);

Hi,

Thank you for the update.

Yes, my bad. I just realized how pointless the solution above is. Please edit the enfold/includes/helper-privacy.php file and look for this code around line 131.

add_action( 'wp_head', array( $this, 'handler_wp_head_script' ), 1 );

Comment it out or remove it completely, then add this code below.

add_action( 'wp_footer', array( $this, 'handler_wp_head_script' ), 1 );

Best regards,
Ismael

Hi,

Yes, unfortunately, this will get overwritten on update. Unfortunately, we cannot find a way to override the current action hook that is attached to the privacy class in the functions.php file. This is also why we recommended the first solution.

Why do you need the script in the footer anyway? It should work fine in the head tag and should not incur any performance overhead.

Best regards,
Ismael
