Basic options

Once you enter the DJ-CookieMonster plugin you'll find settings:

  • Test mode - this feature is needed when you initially set up the plugin, with this setting the message will be displayed every time you enter the site, so you can check all the settings before going live.
  • Show once - with this feature enabled you can set the plugin to display the message only once with the first visit of the user. Every page change will make the message disappear and it will not show up again.

Customize message, links, labels and more

Once you enter the DJ-CookieMonster plugin you'll find settings:

  • Close button text - here you can enter your own custom text for the close button.  
  • Width - this is the width of the message. By default, it's set for 100% so the message appears as a full-width bar at the top or bottom of your template. You can change it to other values - for example, 980px. This way the message can fit more to your template design. This feature does not apply to the "System Message" target type. 
  • Height - this is the height of the message. You can change it to other values - for example, 20px. This way the message can fit more to your template design. This feature does not apply to the "System Message" target type. 
  • Fixed position - if set to "Yes" the message will overlay the template. When it's set to "No" the message will display below or over the template.

Test mode

Enable test mode to check where the message fits best and what style to choose, once you're ready disable the test option.

Select where to display message

Target - with this setting you can determine where the message will be displayed on your Joomla installation, possible options are:

  • Top - default setting - message will be displayed at the top of your website
  • Bottom - message will be displayed at the bottom of your website
  • System Message - message will be displayed in the "System message" area of your template (please note that your template needs to have this position - but most templates do)

Time management

Select if you want to show the message once, or if it should be back after a certain time. You can enter the value of the cookie life in days. For example, if you type 30, the cookie will remember NOT to display the message again during the 30 days from the first visit, then after 30 days, the message will appear again.

Easy source management

You can decide what should be the source of the message. It can be:

  • Plugin - once you choose that option the message will appear as filled in this plugin
  • Module - select module that will be displayed in the message area
