Cookie Control [Support Thread]

[honda-crunch]

New version (1.1) submitted with SSL support, English defines added, less core files to be altered, general off/on switch in admin and extended read me.

Firstly, great mod. I had been using the copy and paste version direct from CookieControl website as until today I hadn't found one that was ready-to-go on the zen cart site.

I'm using the the latest v1.2 version which claims to be able to handle SSL. I appeared to have problems with our sites SSL. I have our mod set to explicit giving the user the choice to avoid cookies until they allow them. In this mode, SSL works ok in both IE9 and firefox. Once the user has allowed cookies, there becomes SSL issues in both browsers; not good news for the customer who's about to log-in.

Then I thought, I had this problem before! The google analytics script found in includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/templates/tpl_cookie_control.php contains the a URL that did not start with https:. So I changed it from http: as below:

function ccAddAnalytics() {
jQuery.getScript("https://www.google-analytics.com/ga.js", function() {
var GATracker = _gat._createTracker('<?php echo COOKIE_CONTROL_GOOGLE_ANALYTICS ; ?>');
GATracker._trackPageview();
});
}

It worked with my old installation so didn't see why it couldn't work with this mod. And it did, cookies are now being stored on my browser. I'm not a php programmer but love to tinker so I'm unsure if this the correct way to sort out this issue, it just happened to work for me.

The whole Google function is actually meant a bit as an example, since a lot of people already have analytics added to their site and need to change that. For my own site i rewrote the code so it works together with the simple Google analytics module.
But I am glad you found your solution that works for you.

Hi, I installed this module (1.2) on 2 different zencart shop (both 1.39h) but I have the same problem by both shops.

shop 1: does NOT have Google analytics so in the backend , the set protected cookies is empty
shop 2: does have Google analytics so in thet backend, the set protected cookies has:analytics


shop 1: frontend I get the cookiecontrol popup, and the product lists has images, but the product info page has no image
shop 2: frontend I get no cookiecontrol and the product info page has a image

when I get to the backend of shop 2 and empty: analytics in the field protected cookies then the result on the frontend is no main image but the cookie control is working

I tried a several hours but no result What went wrong?

Nothing went wrong.
You probably use zen lightbox with mootools in stead of the zen lightbox with jquery.

Yes that's exactly the problem!!! The sites used fual litebox and I changed this in Zen lightbox and it's working fine now. Many thanks.

Thanks Design75 for creating the plugin. I have installed v 1.2 on my zencart v1.5. All working fine EXCEPT that the slider features on index page of the template is now not working. I saw this issue in the other support thread but no solution yet. Does this plug in works with/support easy sliders feature that is used in estornow template? Any guides or hint or pointer of what might hv gone wrong.
Many thanks

Okay,
I thought to solve this just before going to sleep, and not wait till tomorrow.
I made a test shop with Zen Cart 1.5.0, estornow template, and cookie control 1.2

The slider and cc fail to work. the problem is the jquery already being loaded.
Solution:
edit includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/jscript/jscript_cookieControl-5.1.min.php
find and remove the following

http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7/jquery.min.js

it is not the best solution, but it works

Hello there,

Is there a way to disable the script on secure pages? I get the 'do you want to display insecure content' on checkout and login. Thanks for any help with this, it is a great module by the way.

If you install version 1.3, it should resolve your problem. I had the same, which was the main reason this latest version was created.

You only need to replace the file "includes\templates\YOUR_TEMPLATE\jscript\jscript_cookieControl-5.1.min.php" , and add "includes\templates\YOUR_TEMPLATE\css\stylesheet_cookie_control.css" from the new file package

I am using ZC 1.5.7b, PHP 7.4 with two languages English and German.
It has worked fine for me for years.

I was using extended logging options for another problem when the PHP Notice below showed up. I have no clue what the implications might be or if I should just forget about it.

PHP Notice: Constant BOX_CONFIGURATION_COOKIECONTROL already defined in /ADMIN/includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/cookie_control.php on line 18.
