I will take a look but it doesn't make much sense for what I've seen so far. When the cookie plugin is enabled, the CSS file that has the style for the "SG_record_image" class is not loaded.
Again, it doesn't make sense to me for now because all my plugin is doing is inserting the code they instruct before the </head> element, it's just passing the plugin settings as the parameters. Maybe there's some conflict between both plugins css sheets. It's not fair to just say "it's the other broken" by the other developer, my plugin works just fine on its own, it would probably do the same if you implement the code manually without a plugin. Anyway, I will take a look later.

I'm updating this to version 3 tonight or tomorrow and hopefully make a few improvements. IPS 4.2 kinda has an option for this so It's mainly for the new styles.

Agree. As long as it has setting to minimum amount and it is an option for the file submitter, it's a nice feature to have.

We seem to be getting stuck up on a single use-case scenario here for some reason. People sell things other than software with Commerce.
This is not really an issue as software is not an example of something a lot of people really use commerce for. Art and photography are two prime examples that could highly benefit from such a system. As well as e-books, and so on.

I have a site that will have downloads that even support items could be benefited from this. Because some resources that my members make would be supported free or not but if the person is willing to donate to the creator this would be awesome as they could pay for it and show their support for it. There are even mods on here that are free that if they were pay what you want I would donate 1-5 dollars just because they helped my site grow. It may not even be something complicated. I would also donate more to some projects. I know that I would donate more for the discord integration app because of how well that app has worked for my community.

This would be pretty useful for me. We'll be mostly giving things away free, but if people enjoy it and want to give us a buck or two, we'd be happy to take it as a tip.

I support this. This seems like a good model to start selling some of my photography with, possibly.
I would want an option for a minimum value though, be it $0.00 (free) or higher.

I could use a Pay what you want thing for both the files and for store products. It would probably be more profitable for me overall.

Very cool idea. As most of our communities depend on the support of the members it would be nice for different members to offer as much support as they want. I can easily imagine setting the price of a t-shirt at the manufacture price, informing people that this is in fact the price on which the community gets 0 profit and letting them decide how much they want to pay on top. Much like donation against a product. 

That’s expected. The new 4.2 reputation calls aren’t in there. I will update it close to the release of 4.2 and then replace the 4.1 version with the 4.2 version. I can’t do that now of course, or it would break for customers who are not running the 4.2 beta. 

I sent a private message to Mike about this, but I thought I should leave this here for others to discuss.
I suggested that instead of having this as a global option for all the forums, it would be nice of we could enable the option on a per topic basis, so we can control which topics use this feature.
He's planning to add that on a per forum basis, and then per topic.

I'm adding on top of this plugin so I thought a topic for it would be nice for some testing and feedback.
Added an option to block the _ga cookie by Google Analytics until the consent message is dismissed.
I've been testing this, and while the analytics.js file will still be loaded, no tracking information is sent to Google.
After enabling the option in the ACP, delete your existing _ga cookie before testing.

I don't know if you know the site https://gumroad.com/, but I'm going to use it as an example of what I would like to have as an option for files in the suite.
In that site you are allowed to specify a minimum purchase price for your products. So lets say that I put something for sale at a minimum price of $5, people can buy it for that amount, or they can pay more if they wish.
Now, what's more interesting here is that you can set free files, setting the minimum price to 0, but people can still choose to give you some money for it, kind of like a tip.
This is one of my products:

People can input 0 in the box and get the file right away, or they can input whatever amount they feel like.
I'm not gonna reveal any numbers, but this system kinda works, people tips more than I expected for free files.

I like this idea quite a lot. It seems like something that should definitely be included in a future version.

Updated this file, this should be working now.
Added a setting to choose which usergroups see the message

At this rate I'm just gonna wait for IPS to re-introduce the feature... lol. @The Old Man what you are requesting... to me it feels a bit out of the scope, right now the topic comments are not really "copied" to the article, they show up in the article because of the IPS Pages setting "store comments in forum topic".
Maybe it would be easier to develop a script to move your topics with all the messages into articles for real. But that's up to Adriano.
