Troubleshooting

Helping with any issues and problems

Simple Cookie Consent is a non-invasive and low-impact plugin which means encountering problems or issues is rare.

These are the only 'issues' we are aware of:

Body Open

In order to inject the Body section into the page we use the wp_body_open() function.

If you find that the Body code is not being output this could well be the reason.

You will find this specifically in older fields which don't use this hook.

You can easily remedy this by adding the following code directly after the opening <body> tag in your theme.

<?php wp_body_open(); ?>

Specific Position

Whilst we say that the code will appear after or before tags within the page, the actual position will be determined by the priority of other code within WordPress, your theme and installed plugins.

This means that the Header code may not be directly after the opening <HEAD> tag, the Body code may not be immediately after the opening <BODY> tag and the Footer code may not appear directly before the closing </BODY> tag.

This shouldn't cause a problem as the code will still be output and therefore still be active within the page.
