Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Cookie Consent Hub is a WordPress plugin that connects your site to the

CookieConsentHub service. It provides:

  • Cookie consent banner — Customizable from your CookieConsentHub dashboard
  • Server-side script blocking — Rewrites third-party scripts before they reach the browser
  • Cache compatible — Works with WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, LiteSpeed Cache, and WP Super Cache
  • Regional targeting — Show banners only to EU, US, EEA+UK, or Brazil visitors, or globally
  • Google Consent Mode v2 — Supported via the CDN script and GTM integration

Requirements

This plugin is a client for a third-party service and does nothing on its own. It

requires:

  • A CookieConsentHub account with an active subscription
  • An API key generated from your CookieConsentHub dashboard

See External services below for exactly what data is sent where.

How It Works

  • Install and activate the plugin — activation opens a short setup flow
  • Paste the API key from your CookieConsentHub dashboard
  • Choose who sees the banner, where it sits, and whether trackers are blocked
  • The plugin loads your own home page and confirms the banner is actually live

You can re-run those settings any time from Settings > Cookie Consent Hub, which

also has a “Check my banner is live” button for when something looks wrong.

External services

This plugin relies on the third-party service CookieConsentHub

com) and does not function without it. Nothing is sent

anywhere until you enter an API key and click Connect.

com/terms-and-conditions

com/privacy

1. com/api/wp/validate

Fires once, when an administrator clicks “Connect” on the settings screen. Sends the

API key you pasted. Receives your site’s banner configuration, script URL, and

subscription status. No visitor data is involved.

2. com/api/wp/settings

Fires when an administrator finishes the setup wizard or clicks “Sync to Dashboard”.

Sends the API key and the banner settings shown on the settings screen (enabled, region,

position). No visitor data is involved.

3. com

Once connected, the plugin adds a <script> tag to the front end of your site. This

script runs in each visitor’s browser and contacts CookieConsentHub directly. It

affects your visitors, so it is described in full:

  • GET https://cookieconsenthub.com/api/customization/{site-id} — fetches the banner

text, colors, and behavior you configured. Sends your site identifier only.

  • GET https://cookieconsenthub.com/api/geo-country — resolves the visitor’s country

so that region-restricted banners are shown to the right people. The visitor’s IP

address reaches CookieConsentHub as part of this request and is used to derive the

country. If your banner region is set to “Global”, this lookup is not needed.

  • POST https://cookieconsenthub.com/api/consentlog/{site-id} — records the consent

choice so you have an auditable log, as GDPR requires. Sent only after a visitor

interacts with the banner. Includes: the accept/reject action, which categories were

granted, the page URL the choice was made on, an expiry timestamp, a generated event

identifier, and the browser language, platform, and user agent string.

If you deactivate the plugin, the script tag is removed and none of the above occurs.

CookieConsentHub is the only service this plugin contacts. The tracker blocker holds a

com/gtag,

io and so on — and the settings screen prints that same list under “What gets

blocked”. Those are patterns matched against script tags your site is already serving, so

they can be switched off until a visitor agrees. They are not destinations: the plugin

sends no request to any of them, and adding one to the list is what stops it loading.
