Source Code

The PHP source code of this plugin is fully readable in the distributed plugin files.

The administration interface is built as a modern React/TypeScript single-page application and compiled into a single JavaScript bundle (public/js/admin-view.js). The bundle is shipped in a readable, unobfuscated format, allowing developers to review its implementation directly from the plugin package.

External Services

This plugin does not require or connect to any third-party external service.

All plugin settings, cookie categories, consent preferences, and consent logs are stored locally in your WordPress database.

The optional Geo Targeting feature uses the MaxMind GeoIP2 database only when configured by the site administrator. No visitor consent data is transmitted to external services by the plugin itself.

The plugin is simple to install:

1. Download the file web357-cookie-consent-manager.zip.
2. Unzip it.
3. Upload web357-cookie-consent-manager directory to your /wp-content/plugins directory.
4. Go to the plugin management page and enable the plugin.
