Operational Settings

If you wish, you can enable the log which will record visitor interaction with the plugin.

The information is stored in CSV format with a preview window.

The log records:

  • Date
  • Time
  • Choice

It is also possible to include the IP Address within the log. The IP address can be very handy when testing the plugin.

Please note: in some jurisdictions, the IP address is considered to be personally identifiable information so it is important you check before enabling this option.

Header Code

In this section you can populate the code that will be output to the header of the website based on visitor choice.

  • Default Header Code
  • Accept Header Code
  • Reject Header Code

This code will then be output after the opening <HEAD> tag.

This code will then be output before the closing </BODY> tag.

Please note, the position of the code may not always be immediately after or before the tag as it will be dependent on the priority of other elements based on your WordPress installation, your theme and other plugins. The exact position will not cause a problem to the operation of the plugin.
