I've had a look around the WP Plugin ecosphere and it's a complete mess regarding cookie consent plugins. So many companies asking for quite a lot of money to deliver some relatively simple services. My main cookies would be Google Analytics (via the SiteKit plugin, with WP Consent API installed) and YouTube embeds.
After lots of testing I'm either going to use Pressidium or write something myself that uses CookieConsent v3.
Pressidium seems to be the best option but it's still using CookieConsent v2. It doesn't block iFrames but as most sites I build only have YouTube videos as possible GDPR-clashing embeds I think a simple change to make all these iframe links point to the www.youtube-nocookie.com URL instead will suffice. Does Pressidium + YouTube url rewrites seems like a sensible solution for simple sites?
Once a user clicks play on a nocookie YouTube URL I believe tracking cookies are added, so I could add some code that checks to see if cookies have been accepted, else display a warning message above the video.
Alternatively I could look though the discussions and issue threads here to help me build my own solution using CookieConsent v3 and iframemanager but that could end up being a bit of a time sink.
What do you use on your WordPress sites? Thanks in advance.
