What's new at ShopWired?

We’ve released Cookie consent widget – Version 2, a major upgrade that provides granular consent controls and a modern, theme-safe UI.

• New banner or popup consent prompt with Manage link to open a detailed preferences modal
• Four consent groups: Required (always on), Analytics, Personalisation, Marketing
• Accept all, Decline all, or Save my choices flows; no non-required cookies set until consent
• A cookie access button (bottom left by default, configurable to right) gives visitors permanent access to change preferences
• UI built to avoid theme conflicts (shadow DOM), inherits the site font, supports light/dark and custom colours, and uses a safe default z-index

• GDPR page: existing accounts see a Cookie consent widget version toggle (Version 1 / Version 2); new accounts use Version 2 automatically and do not see the toggle
• Appearance settings for Version 2:
• Cookie banner/popup: style (Banner/Popup), colours (Light/Dark/Custom), banner text (rich text), borders, button backgrounds/borders/text
• Cookie preferences modal: colours (Light/Dark/Custom), title, required/personalisation/marketing/analytics texts, checkbox icon & borders
• Analytics page: three script sections renamed/added for clarity and consent mapping: Analytics scripts, Personalisation scripts, Marketing scripts (plus existing Conversion scripts)
• Old UI: when Version 2 is enabled, the GDPR page is disabled to prevent accidental overwrites

• New per-group Twig flags available via global.advanced_cookie_consent (e.g. global.advanced_cookie_consent.analytics, ...personalisation, ...marketing)
• Optional override file: partials/advanced_cookie_consent_widget.twig (extend the platform view and use provided blocks: stylesheets, banner, banner_content, preferences, preferences_content, scripts)
• The legacy global.cookie_consent remains for backward compatibility (represents full consent)

• Existing accounts opt in to Version 2; Version 1 settings are preserved in case of downgrade
• Version 2 starts with a fresh consent state; legacy blanket-consent cookies are not migrated to granular preferences
