Name:

eorisis_consentName of the value to set. Only Alphanumeric, Underscore and Dash characters allowed.
Duration in days:
Default: 365
Set the cookie expiration time in days.
Domain:
The domain that the cookie is available to. To make the cookie available on all subdomains of
example.com (including example.com itself) then you'd set it to .example.com. Although some browsers will accept cookies without the initial dot ., RFC 2109 requires it to be included.Setting the domain to
www.example.com or .www.example.com will make the cookie only available in the www subdomain. If you don't know what to set, leave this field to Default (blank).Path:
Default:
/The path on the server in which the cookie will be available on. If set to
/, the cookie will be available within the entire domain. If set to /foo/, the cookie will only be available within the /foo/ directory and all sub-directories such as /foo/bar/ of domain. If you have multiple WordPress setups in subdirectories, example /site1/, /site2/, you should set the path here in order to use separate cookies for each one.Secure:
(On / Off)
Indicates that the cookie should only be transmitted over a secure HTTPS connection from the client. When set On, the cookie will only be set if a secure connection exists.
HTTP Only:
(On / Off)
When set On, the cookie will be made accessible only through the HTTP protocol.
This means that the cookie won't be accessible by scripting languages, such as JavaScript. This setting can effectively help to reduce identity theft through XSS attacks (although it is not supported by all browsers).
SameSite:
(Lax / Strict / None)
Default: Lax.
The SameSite attribute only allows the cookie to be sent to the application if the request originated from the same domain. In 2016 Google Chrome version 51 introduced a new kind of cookie, the same-site cookie, which can only be sent in requests originating from the same origin as the target domain. This restriction mitigates attacks such as cross-site request forgery (XSRF). SameSite=Lax is available as of Chrome 76. The Stable version of Chrome 80 is targeted for enabling SameSite=Lax by default.
