How to install and set up the Cookie Consent Banner – CultureHub, presented by CultureSuite

Introduction

This article will guide you through installing and the set up of the Cookie Consent Banner, navigate to the Dashboard, enable the banner, and ensure compliance with the new DMA and DSA laws by allowing users to easily decline or accept cookies. New template texts have been created for various consent options. Additionally, a reset link for cookies can be added to the footer, and specific instructions for managing cookies in Edge and Chrome browsers are provided.

We have made some adjustments to the Cookie banner to comply with the new DMA and DSA laws of the European Commission. These laws establish, among other things, that website visitors must be able to refuse (some) cookies just as easily as they can accept them all.

We have updated the standard Cookie Banner in such a way that all options are equally easy to choose. The three options 'decline', 'limited' and 'agree' are still the same, but can be more easily navigated and selected with this new design.

Cookie Settings

Go to Dashboard > System > Control Panel. Search for 'Core' click on the edit pencil and switch on the Cookie Consent Banner:

Template Text

The long text with an explanation and link to your privacy statement is still used (FE3_cookies_explanation)

For all the other areas, new texts have been created;

FE3_cookies_intro

FE3_cookies_explanation

FE3_cookies_button_reject - This will only accept functional cookies

FE3_cookies_button_limited - This will accept functional cookies and some third party cookies, like Youtube players

FE3_cookies_button_all - This will accept all cookies

FE3_cookies_intro_inline is a special case that is shown as an overlay over third party (social) media embeds when the "limited" or "all" consent was not yet given:

🚧

Take note! When you are using Google Tag Manager make sure all your tags are set up accordingly to the different levels of agreement (limited or all cookies).

Add Option for Updating Cookies

If you want to place a link for visitors to reset the Cookie Banner, place a link in one of your footer template texts, and use this as the link:

<a href="javascript:(function(){document.cookie='cookie_consent=;domain='+window.location.hostname.replace('www', '')+';path=/;';window.location.reload()}())">Reset cookies</a>

🚧

Take note! This reset link only works for cookies set after release 190. All older cookies were in a different location, and will not be reset. This could potentially result in a Cookie Banner that cannot be closed after the reset. The only thing you can do is then delete cookies in your browser.
