In May 2011 a law was passed stating that all websites dropping non-essential cookies on visitors devices have to declare it publicly and ensure visitors acknowledge and agree with them to continue browsing the website.
On 26th May 2012 this law came into effect.
Cookie Control Infusion for PHP-Fusion is a solution for this. The Cookie Control Bar Panel shows up as a noticeable bar which appears in the top or bottom of your PHP-Fusion website, stating to users that cookies are used and asking users to accept the use of cookies.
If users accept the use of cookies they will click the "Accept Cookies" button which will then store a cookie for hiding the Cookie Control Bar using Jquery.
The Cookie Control Bar Panel can be styled in the Cookie Control Admin Settings.
The Text on the bar can be edited in the Cookie Control Admin Settings.
In the Cookie Control Admin you can add new Cookie information for 3rd party cookies like Cookie name, Cookie Usage, and Cookie Description.
Standard PHP-Fusion cookies like fusion_visited, fusion_lastvisit, fusion_user are already added and can not be removed but the descriptions can be edited as is the cookie_control cookie.
The Cookie Info Page which can be found at http://www.your-s...e_info.php displays all Cookie information which can be used for users to see which cookies are used on your site.
Changelog v 1.00: First Public Release.
v 2.00: Major Re write of all files.
Cookie Control Panel now uses JQuery to hide the panel and store the Cookie_control cookie without having to redirect or refresh the page.
Cookie Control Admin area now split into sections for Managing cookies and settings.
Standard PHP-fusion Core Cookies info Descriptions can now be edited.
Cookie Time now in Days rather than seconds.
Cookie Control Accept cookies cookie cookie name now includes your site prefix.
Some minor changes made to the text and info on Cookies Info Page.
Exactly for the Standard Core ones you can edit the descriptions but obviously you can't edit the cookie names for the core ones since there is no need to change them but yes you can edit the desc. Edited by Craig on 10-02-2013 22:31
