README

Roundcube plugin to display a GDPR-compliant cookie consent banner.

This plugin shows a customizable modal asking the user for cookie consent and allows control over optional cookies (e.g., analytics, ads, embedded media). Consent is stored via either browser cookies or sessionStorage.

📦 Features

• Configurable list of Roundcube tasks where the banner is shown (mail, login, settings, etc.)
• Support for default consent (accepted, rejected, or none)
• Option to store consent only during the session (sessionStorage)
• Customizable banner text, buttons, and design via banner.html and cookieconsent.css
• Clean JavaScript logic with support for optional script injection

🛠 Installation

1. Clone or copy this plugin into the plugins/ directory of your Roundcube installation:

cd roundcube/plugins/
git clone https://github.com/your-org/rc_cookie_banner.git

1. Enable the plugin by adding it to the $config['plugins'] array in your config/config.inc.php:

$config['plugins'] = ['rc_cookie_banner'];

1. Configure the plugin by copying the example configuration file:

cp plugins/rc_cookie_banner/config.inc.php.dist plugins/rc_cookie_banner/config.inc.php

⚙ Configuration

Edit config.inc.php with the following options:

<?php
// List of Roundcube tasks (contexts) where the cookie banner will be shown.
// Typical values include: 'login', 'mail', 'settings'
$config['rc_cookie_banner.show_on_tasks'] = ['login', 'mail', 'settings'];

// Default consent behavior if no user choice has been made yet:
// - 'accepted' → Automatically accept all cookies
// - 'rejected' → Automatically reject all cookies
// - 'none'     → Ask user for consent via banner
$config['rc_cookie_banner.default_consent'] = 'none'; // 'accepted' or 'rejected'

// Cookie lifetime in seconds (default: 1 year = 31536000)
$config['rc_cookie_banner_lifetime'] = 31536000;

// If true, store consent only for the current session (uses sessionStorage instead of cookies)
$config['rc_cookie_banner.once_per_session'] = false;
