    Hi, I read a lot about bad Enfold-support on Envato, but i thought it was just unjustified.
    But now i realize…it was the truth.
    But i am really surprised that you treat users so bad right from their first supportrequest.

    Another frustated user…ok.
    You seem not to care and to work hard on your reputation.

    Hi,

    As I mentioned before in your other thread for questions in which we have documentation that is where users are referred as it answers questions in a concise direct way in the quickest manner such as what is the use of the cookie consent.

    As i mentioned before – this DOES NOT answer my question

    Again:
    Whats the use of this cookie?
    aviaCookieSilentConsent

    Hey Lena,

    Sorry for the confusion!

    aviaCookieSilentConsent is for “All cookies and services are accepted on first page load, user can opt out” option in default cookie behaviour.
    When a visitor visits your website, all cookies are accepted by default. Your users can choose to opt out in your privacy page if they desire.

    There are two other options, in one user must accept all cookies and then can opt out or they can accept and opt in essential cookies only. Essential cookies are all cookies needed by the site to work properly e.g. Enfold cookies for WooCommerce the cart, for WPML etc. aviaCookieConsent and aviaPrivacyRefuseCookiesHideBar are the 2 basic cookies needed to hide the message bar permanently on returning visits to the site but blocks all services and other cookies.

    I hope that helps! :)

    Cheers!

    Hi Lena,

    aviaCookieSilentConsent is a cookie that’s enabled when the user does not accept yet Cookie consent.
    It allows frontend to activate necessary services and default setting for toggles.
    This is removed if the user accepts cookies.

    Best regards,

    @yigit & @Nikko

    OK.
    If you know what your Cooikies do – why do see this (in my cookie popup as well as in your documentation)??
    _ga( GA1.2.233313568.1569511031 ) – Usage unknown
    _gid ( GA1.2.703569997.1577096189 ) – Usage unknown
    sc_is_visitor_unique( rx1215…3.2 ) – Usage unknown

    GDPR says that i have to inform users about the usage of cookies and Usage unknown is not a appropriate answer to that.

    Hi Lena,

    First two are Google Analytic related cookies – https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/cookies-user-id
    By default, analytics.js uses a single, first-party cookie named _ga to store the Client ID, but the cookie’s name, domain, and expiration time can all be customized. Other cookies created by analytics.js include _gid, AMP_TOKEN and _gac_. These cookies store other randomly generated ids and campaign information about the user.

    sc_is_visitor_unique: 1st Party Visitor Cookie. This cookie is set by the website. When it is first set, a random id is generated and stored in the cookie in order to avoid counting you as a visitor more than once (e.g. if you are on a mobile device and your IP address changes while you browse). Similarly to the is_unique cookie, this cookie also stores a count of your returning visits. – http://www.inspiredc.co.uk/gdpr/

    1: I dont use Google analytics
    2: The thread is not about google cookies – its about “Usage unknown

    Usage unknown is provided by your theme!
    If you provide a function that tells users which cookies are set you have to either……
    A: give the possibility to replace Usage unknown against something that makes sense
    or
    B: print out a usefull information what the cookie does

    If you dont even provide A or B your cookie-modal is not GDPR compliant

    Hi,

    Thank you for following up.

    The Usage unknown text is automatically designated to cookies that were not generated by the theme. If you want to describe these cookies, use the avf_privacy_cookie_infos filter. Please check the snippet below as an example.

    add_filter("avf_privacy_cookie_infos", function($infos, $class) {
    	$infos['custom_cookie_name'] = __( 'A custom cookie', 'avia_framework' );
            $infos['_ga'] = __( 'A cookie from the good guys at Google', 'avia_framework' );
    	return $infos;
    }, 10, 2);
    

    Best regards,
    Ismael

    Sorry, but YOU provide things.
    Than it turns out that they dont work.

    Now you want me to add code but you even dont tell me what exactly to do with it??

    You only sell your theme to nerds???
    Than you should mention that on themeforest

    #1171398

    Hey,

    It is not true that we provide things that do not work.

    Please read our posts more carefully.

    The Usage unknown text is automatically designated to cookies that were not generated by the theme. If you want to describe these cookies, use the avf_privacy_cookie_infos filter.

    Those are not generated by Enfold therefore we cannot know the usage of cookies generated not by our theme. We went ahead and added a filter for convenience so you can add descriptions to those cookies. Ismael even shared an example code that you can use in Appearance > Editor > Functions.php file.

    We keep our theme as user-friendly as it can be and there are thousands of novice users including senior citizens creating their websites. But i understand it might be complicated for you. You can always find a freelancer to help you with the things you cannot figure out.

    Also i am not fine with the way you are using word “nerds”. I hope you are aware that there is a debate going on to consider it a hate-crime – https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2019/12/17/nerd-geek-insults-should-classed-hate-crimes-academic-claims/. Please be more respectful towards us and other tech savvy people.

    Regards,
    Yigit
