It would be nice to see the new Cookie Control Version 5 (the JS Library) integrated into this module. I will upload my patch to enable this in a while. A question though, is the library actually GPL?

I have attached a patch to upgrade the module to use Cookie Control JS Version 5. This brings in additional control, you can now select information, implicit or explicit consent methods. See http://www.civicuk.com/cookie-law/cookie_configuration_v5 for information on the different methods in full.

Essentially there are the following modes:

  • Explicit - Informs the user the site is not using cookies and they are given the option to opt in.
  • Implicit - Informs the user the site is using cookies and they are given the option to opt out.
  • Information - Informs the user the site is using cookies and they are given no option to opt out.

I have also corrected a few other bugs such as the double paragraph tags that were showing in some parts of the rendered code.

NOTE: I have not fully tested the patch with all settings in different browsers, so please do not use on production sites, use only on a test site. If you find any issues, please submit a patch to correct.

Thanks,
Nick

Hi nickbits,

Good job on this.

Any idea when this is going to be rolled into a beta version?

I'm running Drupal on windows and don't have development setup to roll that patch into the code - unless someone can point me in the right direction - I'm not a git user.

Cheers

Colin

Hi cshedden,

Good question. I don't know when it will be added into the development/beta snapshot, I don't have any privileges for this project, it is up to the maintainer to commit it.

You can get Git for windows ( http://msysgit.github.com/ ) and to apply a patch see the Drupal Docs ( http://drupal.org/patch/apply ).

Good luck,
Nick

re: GPL / distribution
I've obtained permission to include the Cookie Control script as part of the Drupal module.

I never got any notification from CivicUK about the new version of the JS library so overlooked this, sorry!

Excellent, and no problem. I only found out by accident. Hope the patch works!

Hi nickbits,

Against which version do I have to patch?

http://drupalcode.org/project/cookiecontrol.git

Patching against 1.x-dev (31 may) and version 1.5/1.4 fails.

Thanks,

Tessa

Hi Tssa,

I would have used the dev release closest to June 18th. It still works for me. Can you post the exact steps you took to try and patch it.

Hi MJCO,

I have asked for it to be committed, I am not a maintainer, nor do I wish to be, hence I do not have the privileges to commit. Perhaps if you request to the module maintainer he will commit it.

Regards,
Nick

Your patch is quite essential to our ability to use this module (as I understand it, opt-out is not good enough for Dutch law, so I need opt-in, your new 'explicit' mode).

It no longer applies 100% cleanly; while fixing it I thought I'd try 5.1 instead of 5.0.
The result is attached.

I have twiddled with the configuration options and they all appear to work; more thorough testing would be welcome.

@Reinier: you might want to check out http://drupal.org/project/ro_cookie_opt_in, which is opt-in based and offers logging as well.
