WP Cookie Consent Lite

Descriptions

Overview

Cookie Consent Lite is a free and lightweight WordPress plugin that helps your website maintain compliance with GDPR and CCPA regulations. It offers a fully customizable cookie banner with consent by category (Essential, Analytics, Marketing, Preferences) and a modern, responsive design that works seamlessly on all devices.

What sets this plugin apart is its built-in cache-busting technology, which ensures the banner displays correctly even when using caching plugins like WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, LiteSpeed, or CDNs like Cloudflare. It's designed to work out of the box with minimal setup and no coding required.

The admin interface is clean and intuitive, offering real-time previews, toggle switches, color customization, button controls, and full text editing. You can set cookie expiration periods, enable or disable categories, and control how consent is displayed and stored.

For developers, it includes helpful features like hooks, filters, JavaScript APIs, and PHP functions to load scripts based on user consent. This makes it easy to integrate advanced tracking or marketing tools while remaining fully compliant.

Whether you're a developer, agency, or site owner, Cookie Consent Lite provides a fast, flexible, and legally compliant solution for managing cookie consent on WordPress.
