Netherlord Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Being transparent about all the cookies we set on our site, Some of the ones I found here but there are some I cannot find descriptions for and need to find details on. Would the staff be able to tell me what these cookies do? I could guess but I want to be accurate. ips4_clubs_view ips4_device_key ips4_emojiSkinTone ips4_forums_flowIds ips4_recentEmoji ips4_IPSSessionSetup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asigno Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 It would be great if IPB can write us default cookie text for compliance. E.g. what exactly the individual cookies do, how long they persist for, what happens if you log out etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asigno Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Thanks @opentype but had already checked that, IPB have far more than three cookies, there is at least the following: ips4_IPSSessionAdmin ips4_IPSSessionFront ips4_acpTabs ips4_acp_login_key ips4_device_key ips4_forums_flowIds ips4_hasJS ips4_ipsTimezone ips4_login_key ips4_member_id Also does anyone know where do you edit the default cookie policy page?

As opentype said. However that's only for language strings in the template. If you want to edit the actual cookie page you can search 'cookies' in the template editor. Also here are some of the cookies not included in the default cookie page explained. https://invisioncommunity.com/4guides/developing-plugins-and-applications/introduction-to-the-ips-framework/common-cookies-set-by-the-suite-r16/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bfarber Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 ips4_IPSSessionAdminips4_acpTabsips4_acp_login_key To start with, these three would only ever be set by the AdminCP, so you shouldn't need to detail these to your user base. Our default cookie policy page only outlines persistent cookies as I recall, as session cookies are removed once you navigate away from the site.

asigno Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Thanks @bfarber It'd be great if the cookie page could be a real page rather than the template. This way it would be much easier for users to add in other third party cookies which are being set by the board. E.g. If you enable viglink they set cookies on the site and currently there is no way to add that info to the cookie page without editing the template file. Also most users will be using third party tracking and can't add that info either. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asigno Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Thanks @Jennifer M, I've just updated to 4.3.3 The "Add third party information" selector only allows third parties enabled through the ACP interface. It doesn't allow the addition of third parties which are enabled external to IPB, e.g. if you've hardcoded Google Analtyics or your using GTM with third party tags. The "Add third party information" functionality is missing some native third parties integration through ACP e.g. Viglink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer M Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Well if you're just looking to add those you can simply add them at the bottom of your Privacy Policy. We unfortunately cannot predict every use case or every cookie type. As far has missing third party apps that enabled in the ACP we will review those and get them added as that would be a bug.

asigno Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Hi @Jennifer M we can't just add them to the bottom of our privacy page. The cookie page has to be separate from the privacy page and there is no current way to add to this without modifying the template. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opentype Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 I don’t disagree. I was just correcting your statement that template changes were necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Explosion Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Have a freebie....following plugin install, this will immediately clear the content that is shown on the 'Cookies' page so simply go in to settings and save them (modify content if you wish) so that the content displays again (it's pre-populated with the information that you would have expected to see) You can then edit without needing to modify the template.
