Daily: Nicepage – Add GA and Cookies
Nicepage is an awesome Web Page Builder with 400+ Features and 10000+ Templates.
One of the features is to connect to Google Analytics, another is a Cookie Consent Plugin.
Unfortunately, i didn’t succeed in getting both together work. The goal was, only to load the GA code if the consent plugin allowed this.
So i created a workaround:
- i didn’t configure the Google Tag Manger in the Settings
- i add custom code to check cookie state and load Google Tag Manager
Add HTML Code to Site:
<script> window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || []; function gtag(){ console.log('gtag: arguments=', arguments); dataLayer.push(arguments); } function setupGoogleTagManager(w,d,s,l,i){ console.log('google tag manager: setup with', i); w[l]=w[l]||[]; w[l].push({'gtm.start': new Date().getTime(), event:'gtm.js'}); var f=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0], j=d.createElement(s),dl=l!='dataLayer'?'&l='+l:''; j.async=true;j.src='https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtm.js?id='+i+dl; f.parentNode.insertBefore(j,f); } function setCookie(cname, cvalue, exdays) { const d = new Date(); d.setTime(d.getTime() + (exdays*24*60*60*1000)); let expires = "expires="+ d.toUTCString(); document.cookie = cname + "=" + cvalue + ";" + expires + ";path=/"; } function getCookie(cname) { let name = cname + "="; let decodedCookie = decodeURIComponent(document.cookie); let ca = decodedCookie.split(';'); for(let i = 0; i <ca.length; i++) { let c = ca[i]; while (c.charAt(0) == ' ') { c = c.substring(1); } if (c.indexOf(name) == 0) { return c.substring(name.length, c.length); } } return ""; } function buildConsentCookie(consent) { console.log('buildConsentCookie: consent=', consent); const consentCookie = { 'functionality_storage': consent.necessary ? 'granted' : 'denied', 'security_storage': consent.necessary ? 'granted' : 'denied', 'ad_storage': consent.marketing ? 'granted' : 'denied', 'analytics_storage': consent.analytics ? 'granted' : 'denied', 'personalization': consent.preferences ? 'granted' : 'denied', }; console.log('buildConsentCookie: consentCookie=', consentCookie); return consentCookie } function setConsent(consent) { console.log('setConsent: ', consent); const consentCookie = buildConsentCookie(consent); gtag('consent', 'default', consentCookie); console.log('store consentMode: ',consentCookie); localStorage.setItem('consentMode', JSON.stringify(consentCookie)); } if(localStorage.getItem('consentMode') === null){ const consent = { necessary: false, marketing: false, analytics: false, preferences: false, }; consentCookie = buildConsentCookie(consent); gtag('consent', 'default', consentCookie); } else { consentCookie = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('consentMode')); gtag('consent', 'default', consentCookie); } </script>
Add HTML Code to Cookies Section
const consent = { necessary: true, marketing: true, analytics: true, preferences: true, }; setCookie('u-gdpr-cookie', true, 180); setConsent(consent); setupGoogleTagManager(window,document,'script','dataLayer','GTM-#######');
