A change of law?

Yes it changed to that we now have the implied consent of the user.

Ah ok, I had heard or read somewhere recently that that was a possibility. Common sense prevails at last

Our big problem in the UK is that the EU says "JUMP", and the UK says "HOW HIGH"...

The rest of the EU ignores these stupid directives from Brussels and gets on with the task of running business and life in general.

I wish we in the UK had the courage to tell the EU to P1SS OFF - like the rest of the member states do.

Agreed... And the other problem is we're still affected by Victorian principles of past, and we just KNOW the posh boys running this country would only be TOO WILLING to slap a heafty fine on those who dare not to comply!

Pity we do not all stick together and tell them we will follow Germany ;)

Screw ups so far granny tax pastie tax cookie consent scrapping harrier jump jet & nimrod, when's the next flight to la la land so we can send them all there. Sorry having a rant

"consent scrapping harrier jump Jet"

OUCH!!! and look how it did 30yrs ago!

Ok... Back on topic......

I have now taken the decision to NOT go with cookie law "pop-ups" (only got analytics running)

Too distracting, and 'Explicit Concent' now not needed... In short... Much pannick over 'a' nothing.

Search some .gov sites, like your councils, education's Etc. and see how many have gone to the trouble we did...

Simple banner at the very bottom (footer position 3) linking to the privacy page. Just ensure that page list's the cookies used...

And before a certain someone on here (who has been very helpful) pick's on me for not yet updating mine.... Well... it was another 'late-clicky-night' for another reason ;)

Will get mine done tomorrow.

I couldnt for the life of me get this script to work, so I did a search and found this one instead. For anyone else who wants to keep in line with this legislation all you need to do is place the following in your tpl_main_page.php in your templates/common and just before </body>

<script type="text/javascript">
    function cookiesDirectiveScriptWrapper(){
        // Cookie creating scripts etc here....

    }
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://YOUR SITE ADDRESS HERE/1.4.js">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
    // The position of the disclosure ('top' or 'bottom')
    // Number of times to display disclosure. Enter 0 to show it forever!!!!
    // The URI of your privacy policy
    cookiesDirective('top',5,'ADDRESS TO YOUR PRIVACY POLICY HERE E.g. index.php?main_page=privacy');
</script>

Then place the js file got from this link into your site root... http://js.cookiesdirective.com/cookiesDirective-v1.4.zip

big thanks to the http://cookiesdirective.com for this one

Thanks for the heads up on this from everyone involved - I'm thankful I read the whole thread.

Schoolboy - Carpclobber is a really cool and well designed demo site, nice 1.
Are the t shirt & hoodie templates your own? If not can you let me know where you got them as I would love to be able to used them.

I found the exact same thing and had to remove it as big red ''insecure content'' warnings at login was bad enough but at checkout is a big no no! I read on here and other websites that the rules had been relaxed so I removed the script and placed a line of text on the site with a link to the cookies info instead. If this civic problem gets resolved I would re-add it. Just wanted you to know it was not just on your site :)

i have spoke with civic and the problem is the GeoPlugin, what you need to do is replace the link in the code to a secure SSL geoplugin,
