Description
NoCrumbs Cookie Notice is an ultra-lightweight WordPress plugin built on the “install and forget” principle. It provides a cookie consent notice compliant with Russian Federal Law 152-FZ without adding any bloat to your site.
Key Features
- 🪶 Zero Bloat. The frontend runs on pure Vanilla JS and CSS3. Total asset weight is under 5 KB. No jQuery, no external fonts.
- ⚡ Cache-Compatible. Cookie checks are performed entirely on the client side, so the plugin works seamlessly with WP Rocket, LiteSpeed, Cloudflare, and any CDN.
- 🎨 Sleek Minimalism. A clean card-style notification in the bottom-left corner with smooth animations. Fully responsive on mobile devices.
- 🛡️ Secure. The code uses native WordPress escaping functions. Scripts and styles are not loaded in the admin panel.
- 🇷🇺 152-FZ Out of the Box. Ready-to-use cookie notice text in Russian. Automatic link to the Privacy Policy page from WordPress settings.
How It Works
- The server renders the banner HTML in a hidden state (compatible with any page cache).
- Client-side JavaScript checks for the consent cookie.
- If no cookie is found, the banner smoothly fades in.
- After clicking “OK”, a cookie is set for 30 days and the banner disappears.
Installation
- Upload the
nocrumbs-cookie-noticefolder to the/wp-content/plugins/directory. - Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” menu in WordPress.
- Make sure you have a Privacy Policy page selected under
Settings Privacy. The plugin will automatically pick up the link.
That’s it! No additional configuration is needed.
FAQ
-
Do I need to configure anything after installation?
-
No. The plugin works immediately after activation. The only recommendation is to make sure a Privacy Policy page is selected in WordPress (Settings Privacy).
-
Will the plugin affect my site’s loading speed?
-
No. The combined size of JS and CSS is under 5 KB. The plugin does not use jQuery and does not load any external fonts or libraries.
-
Is the plugin compatible with WP Rocket / LiteSpeed / Cloudflare?
-
Yes. Cookie checks are performed entirely in the browser (client-side JavaScript), so cached pages work correctly.
-
How long does the user’s consent last?
-
30 days. After that period, the banner will appear again.
-
In the current version (MVP), the text and design are fixed. Customization options are planned for future releases.
