New major release (v3.9.0) for the Cookies Policy Notification Bar Joomla! plugin

The new major release of the Cookies Policy Notification Bar plugin for Joomla! comes with a few great new features and a lot of improvements and minor bug fixes.

Let’s see what’s new in the version 3.9.0

This update release has 9 new features, 2 improvements,
1 language update, and 3 bug fixes.

View the Accepted/Declined categories

Admins are able to see which categories are accepted by the users via the acceptance logs in the plugin settings.

Confirmation alerts for each button

Confirmation alerts for each button separately. In “Base Settings” you can see a new section of parameters “Confirmation Alerts”, for the “Accept”, for the “Decline”, and for the “Delete” button.

Reset plugin settings

Restore the plugin settings to the defaults. All the settings will be replaced by the default plugin settings.

The cookie expiration has been splitted to the datetime and text.

The cookie expiration has been splitted in two variables, the datetime and the text. Now, if you are using the shortcode functionality to display the cookies info table, you can choose the Cookie expiration (count), and the cookie Expiration (text) (for example, 30 days, or 1 year, or 2 years, etc.)

Translate the expiration date’s text values

You can now translate the expiration text values in the shortcode info table. You can do this from the “Texts for Languages” tab, for each language separately. There is a new field for each of these strings (minute, minutes, hour, hours, day, days, month, months, year, years).

Add a class attribute for each button

Add a class attribute for each button separately (accept, decline, cancel, more info, settings, save, reload), where these are displayed on the cookies notification bar, on the cookies manager (modal window) and in the cookies info table (shortcode). There are 11 buttons in total.

Set the days of the expiration date of the cookie “cpnb_cookiesSettings”.

Because of some European countries, for example, Italy, a new parameter field has been created to set the days of the expiration date of the cookie “cpnb_cookiesSettings”.

The “Include/Exclude from Pages” functionality has been separated in two parameter sections.

The “Include or Exclude from Pages” functionality, in Advanced Settings, has been separated in two parameter sections. The “Show Notification Bar” and the “Plugin’s Functionality”. With the first parameter you can show/hide the notification bar from specific pages, and with the second you can enable/disable the whole plugin’s functionality (notification bar, cookies manager modal window and cookies info table – shortcode functionality), from specific pages.
