FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Method 3: Using Composer
You can also install the plugin using Composer:
Usage
After activation, the cookie consent banner will automatically appear on your website. Configure the settings from the WordPress admin panel at Settings > Warder Consent.
Configuration
You can customize the plugin through the admin interface:
- Navigate to Settings > Warder Consent in your WordPress dashboard
- Configure the following settings:
- Language and general behavior
- Banner title and description
- Button text and actions
- Privacy policy link
- Cookie categories and patterns (NEW!)
Preferences Toggle Button
A floating cookie icon button is rendered in the page footer, giving visitors a persistent way to reopen the preferences modal and change their consent choices at any time.
- Enable/disable the button via the "Preferences Toggle Button" checkbox in General Settings
- Position it in any corner: Bottom Right (default), Bottom Left, Top Right, Top Left
- The button only appears when the plugin is enabled and the toggle option is active
Cookie Categories Management
The plugin allows you to manage cookie categories and patterns directly through the admin interface:
- Add new cookie categories like Marketing or Preferences
- Define specific cookies to block within each category
- Use regular expressions to match multiple cookies with similar names
- Automatically clear cookies when consent is withdrawn
This means you can easily configure which cookies to block and when to allow them, all without editing any code.
Cookie Categories
The default configuration includes:
- Necessary cookies: Always enabled, required for basic website functionality. Pre-populated with WordPress core cookies (
wordpress_logged_in_*,wordpress_sec_*,wordpress_test_cookie,wp-settings-*) and WooCommerce session & cart cookies (wp_woocommerce_session_*,woocommerce_cart_hash,woocommerce_items_in_cart,woocommerce_recently_viewed). - Analytics cookies: Optional tracking and analytics cookies, pre-populated with patterns for Google Analytics (
/^_ga/,_gid,_gat), Matomo (/^_pk_/,/^mtm_/), and SourceBuster (/^sbjs_/).
Plausible Analytics is cookieless by design, so it needs no patterns here — there are no cookies to clear.
Usage Examples
Blocking Google Analytics Until Consent
Add your Google Analytics script with the data-category attribute:
The script won't execute until the visitor accepts analytics cookies.
Blocking Matomo Until Consent
Gate the Matomo tracking snippet the same way:
The matching /^_pk_/ and /^mtm_/ patterns in the analytics category clear Matomo's cookies if consent is later withdrawn.
Automatic Script Blocking
The plugin automatically blocks a set of known WordPress script handles before analytics consent is given — no data-category attributes needed on those scripts. The built-in list covers:
| Script handle | Script |
|---|---|
sourcebuster-js |
WooCommerce SourceBuster (sets sbjs_* cookies) |
wc-order-attribution |
WooCommerce order attribution |
To add more scripts, use the warder_blocked_scripts filter:
Common examples
Managing Third-party Cookies
The plugin automatically handles third-party cookies by:
- Preventing scripts from loading until consent is given
- Clearing cookies if consent is withdrawn
