Nexter Extension

Cookie Consent for WordPress

Free cookie consent for WordPress, split across Nexter Extension and Nexter Blocks. Design the banner in the block editor, and let Nexter hold analytics and marketing scripts until your visitor agrees.

Two Plugins, One Cookie Setup

Cookie Consent is split in two on purpose. One plugin runs the logic. The other draws what your visitors see.

Nexter Extension

The Engine

Categories, script holding, consent records, the Compliance Check and Google Consent Mode v2. You set it up once under Nexter > Security > Privacy.

Get Nexter Extension
Nexter Blocks

The Banner

Three blocks: the Cookie Consent banner, the Cookie Preferences Button and the Cookie Declaration table. You design them in the block editor like the rest of your site.

Key Benefits of Nexter Cookie Consent

Included Free

A Banner Built in the Block Editor

Pick one of 14 designs and 5 positions, then change colours, type and spacing in the inspector. No separate settings app to learn.

  • Reject sits beside Accept
  • A Cookie Preferences Button to reopen choices
  • A Cookie Declaration table for your policy page

Included Free

Scripts Wait for a Yes

Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, TikTok, Hotjar and more are held until the visitor agrees. YouTube, Vimeo and Google Maps embeds show an Accept and Show placeholder.

  • 18 built-in vendor rules
  • Script blocking is on by default
  • Google reCAPTCHA is never held, so forms keep working

A Compliance Check That Tells the Truth

It lists what is working, what is risky and what Nexter cannot verify. When a tag cannot be held back, it names the tag.

  • 11 checks with Pass, Warning, Fail or Not available
  • Flags a second cookie plugin before it shows a second banner
  • Re-run it after any change

Everything You Need to Collect Consent

What each plugin gives you, in plain terms.

Nexter Extension Logic and Records

Four Consent Categories

Strictly Necessary, Functional, Analytics and Marketing. Rename the labels. Strictly Necessary stays on.

Script Holding

18 built-in vendor rules. Matching script tags wait for the visitor.

Consent Records

Every decision is logged. Store the IP as None, Truncated, Hashed or Full.

Retention Control

Keep records from 1 to 3,650 days. Older records are purged on a daily schedule.

Compliance Check

11 checks with Pass, Warning, Fail or Not available. Re-run it after any change.

Google Consent Mode v2

Send consent signals to Google, direct or through Google Tag Manager with the GTM-managed path.

Nexter Blocks The Visitor Side

Cookie Consent Banner

14 presets, 5 positions, an optional overlay, a heading, your message and a privacy policy link.

Fair Buttons

Reject sits beside Accept. Choose the button order. The close icon counts as a rejection, never a silent dismissal.

Preferences Window

One switch for each category, with descriptions, so visitors can choose in detail.

Cookie Preferences Button

Six styles: Link, Outline, Filled, Floating, Icon and Badge. Visitors can reopen their choices any time.

Cookie Declaration

List your cookies as a table, list, cards or accordion. Group by category or provider and pick your columns.

Full Style Controls

Style the banner, buttons, preferences window, category list, close icon and overlay from the Style tab. All free.

How It Works

Turn It On

Open Nexter > Security > Privacy in WordPress and switch on Cookie Consent. Set your categories and your policy links.

Add the Banner

Insert the Cookie Consent block in your footer or a template part, and pick a design and a position.

Check It

Run the Compliance Check. Fix any Fail or Warning, then test in a private window.

What Cookie Consent Does Not Do

We would rather you hear it from us before you launch.

  • It does not write your policies. Link your own privacy and cookie policy pages.
  • Inline snippets load before consent. The standard Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel code blocks run as soon as the page loads, and cannot be held without breaking them. The Compliance Check names them so you can move them to a plugin or theme that loads scripts the WordPress way.
  • Embeds are swapped as the page loads. A blocked YouTube, Vimeo or Google Maps embed is replaced with a placeholder. The video does not load, but the browser can begin the request for an instant before the swap.
  • Only listed vendors are held. A vendor that is not on the built-in list is not held.
  • One consent tool at a time. If another cookie plugin is active, the Compliance Check flags it, because two tools show two banners.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Cookie Consent is free in both Nexter Extension and Nexter Blocks.
No plugin can do that on its own. Cookie Consent helps you ask for consent, hold scripts until you get it, and keep a record. You still write your own policy and decide which tools you use.
The built-in list covers Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Google Ads, Meta Pixel, YouTube, Vimeo, Google Maps, Hotjar, Microsoft Clarity, LinkedIn, TikTok, Pinterest, X, HubSpot, Intercom, Crisp, Tawk.to and Mailchimp. Google reCAPTCHA is never held, so your forms keep working.
Yes. Nexter Extension holds the logic, and the banner is a Nexter Blocks block. Without the Extension the blocks show nothing on your site.
Yes. Add the Cookie Preferences Button, for example in your footer. It reopens the same preferences window as the banner.
Each decision is a row in your own WordPress database. You choose how the IP is stored and set retention from 1 to 3,650 days. The default is 365. Records are kept on uninstall unless you turn on the delete option.
