ConsentOwl — Cookie Consent & Tracker Blocker

Changelog

3.0.8

  • Help: expanded guidance on which embeds (videos, maps, chats, social widgets) load before consent, with examples by type of business.
  • FAQ: added answers about embeds and keeping a multi-author site compliant.

3.0.7

  • New: the banner now lists which services each category will load (based on what you enabled on the Scripts tab), so visitors see exactly what they are consenting to.
  • Docs: the Help page now states clearly that entering a counter ID on the Scripts tab is all you need — no code to paste, wrap or edit anywhere else.
  • Pro: automatic embed blocking now also covers the Russian platforms — RUTUBE, VK Video, Dzen and Odnoklassniki (13 platforms in total).

3.0.6

  • Fix: classic banner was too tall on mobile — no more empty gap between text and buttons.
  • Fix: Help page layout (admin footer no longer sticks to the top).
  • Housekeeping: removed a redundant textdomain call; translations still load automatically.

3.0.5

  • New: default banner texts now follow the site language on new installs.
  • New: “Reset texts to site language” button — refresh banner texts after changing the site language.
  • New: Spanish translation (es_ES and es_MX).
  • Fix: floating cookie button no longer overlaps the settings panel.

3.0.4

  • New minimal banner theme (selectable). Cookie icon. Updated built-in services list.

3.0.3

  • Updated Pro information and upgrade link.

3.0.2

  • Security: per-client rate limiting on the public consent endpoint to prevent log flooding.

3.0.1

  • Reliability: self-healing schema check ensures the consent log table and settings stay consistent across updates.

3.0.0

  • Initial public release of the free edition.
