  Cookie Consent v0.0.2 — Theme shield Stable

  Robin released this 2026-08-30 20:53:37 +02:00 | 0 commits to main since this release

  Second release. Two fixes to how the banner renders inside a theme, plus the
  value+unit "Custom" option on every appearance scale.

  The banner now looks the same on the front as in the preview

  The banner is a plugin-owned island dropped into an unknown theme, and styling
  bare button is a near-universal theme habit — frequently through selectors
  that outrank a plain class. Any layout property the banner did not set itself
  could be taken over by the theme, and the admin preview could never warn you:
  it renders in wp-admin, where no theme stylesheet is loaded. So the preview
  promised one banner and the front delivered another.

  On a theme giving buttons a min-width, that meant a close (×) stretched across
  the whole header, action buttons stacking one per row instead of sharing a line,
  and the "continue without accepting" link rendered as a wide centred block.

  The banner's controls are now shielded from theme layout rules — widths,
  margins, letter-spacing, native appearance and the rest — without a single
  !important. Colours, font family and sizes are deliberately not shielded:
  those still come from your theme through the plugin's CSS variables, so the
  FSE-first "looks native with zero configuration" behaviour is unchanged.

  If your banner already looked right, nothing changes.

  Closing the banner is no longer the highlighted default

  The banner used to hand focus to its first control when it opened. That control
  is the close (×) — which counts as refusing everything. Browsers drew a focus
  ring around it, so the most visually prominent thing in the banner was refusal,
  and it was the default keyboard action too.

  The banner now takes focus itself. The × keeps a proper focus ring when you
  actually tab to it.

  New: close-button size

  The × has joined the appearance controls: Small / Medium / Large, or Custom with
  your own value and unit. The default matches the previous size exactly.

  Since closing the banner counts as refusing everything, a discreet × next to
  clearly-presented choices is the better default — this makes that adjustable.

  Also in this release

  • Custom + unit on every appearance scale. Width, spacing (padding/gap),
    text and title size, and corner radius each offer a Custom option backed by a
    value + unit control, alongside a free-text font family. The live preview
    resolves them exactly as the front does.
  • "Continue without accepting" outside the box — an extra placement pinning
    the refusal link to the top of the viewport (the French press pattern), with
    its own colour option.
  • CAPTCHA fixes. A CAPTCHA rule set to "always blocked" now renders nothing
    instead of a dead "Accept & load" button, and the admin warns you when a
    CAPTCHA rule is set that way.
  • Cookies tab: scan and list merged into one view, an "Ignore" status to hide
    a cookie from visitors, and a shorter, less unwieldy editor.

  Upgrading

  Update from wp-admin as usual. If you run a page-cache or CSS-minify plugin,
  purge its cache afterwards — the previous banner stylesheet is otherwise frozen
  in the minified bundle.
