Cookie Consent for WordPress
Cookiezy gives WordPress teams a cleaner path to consent management through the dedicated WordPress plugin package. Instead of wiring theme snippets manually, you upload the plugin ZIP, configure it in wp-admin, and use shortcodes for the settings link and cookie audit.
A lightweight WordPress consent layer for publishers, businesses, and agencies.
Cookie banner preview
Lightweight. Fast. Clear by default.
Cookie consent. Done easy.
Lightweight consent that keeps your site fast and your data intact.
What the WordPress ZIP includes
After payment you generate `cookiezy-wordpress-plugin.zip`. It contains a full WordPress plugin with admin settings, consent assets, scanning support, shortcodes, and embedded licensing values for the account.
- • `cookiezy.php`
- • `includes/class-cookiezy-settings.php`
- • Plugin CSS and JavaScript assets for the banner and scanner
- • Shortcodes: `[site_cookie_settings_link]` and `[site_cookie_audit]`
Upload and activate the WordPress plugin
In WordPress admin go to Plugins, choose Add New, then Upload Plugin. Select `cookiezy-wordpress-plugin.zip`, install it, and activate it. You do not need to copy JavaScript files into your theme manually for the packaged WordPress flow.
- • Upload `cookiezy-wordpress-plugin.zip` directly in wp-admin
- • Activate the plugin after installation completes
- • Confirm a Cookiezy settings screen appears in the admin area
Configure the plugin in wp-admin
Open the Cookiezy plugin settings and fill in your locale, policy page URL, categories, and any GTM or GA4 details you want to use. The issued package already contains the account licensing values, so the settings screen stays focused on content and integrations instead of technical license setup.
