117 ## Frequently Asked Questions ##
118
119 ### Is Cookiebot free? ###
120
121 Yes. You can start on a **Free plan** to try the core consent features and upgrade anytime as your needs grow.
122
123 ### My banner isn’t showing on my site, what do I do? ###
124
125 First, confirm that your **Domain Group ID** is correct in the plugin settings. If it still doesn’t appear, open the **Support** tab, copy the **debug info**, and **contact support** so we can check your setup.
126
127 ### How do I customize my banner? ###
128
129 Open the Cookiebot Admin. You can adjust layout, colors, texts, and buttons to match your brand and choose how choices are displayed.
130
131 ### How can I check my cookie scan results or repeat them? ###
132
133 Go to the Cookiebot Admin to view scan results. You can also trigger a new scan there whenever you update tags, plugins, or embeds.
134
135 ### Why am I being offered a trial? ###
136
137 The trial lets you experience the product before deciding. If you’re not ready to upgrade after the trial, you can continue on the Free plan.
138
139 ### Can I switch to a different legal framework? ###
140
141 Yes. The Cookiebot by Usercentrics plugin for WordPress supports multiple legal frameworks by allowing you to set up separate banner configurations for different regions or countries.
142
143 To do this, enable “Multiple Configurations” under the Multiple Configurations tab in the Cookiebot plugin settings, then add banner configurations for the specific regions you want to support.
144
145 This setup uses separate Domain Groups for each configuration and the data-georegions attribute in the Cookiebot script to display the correct banner based on the visitor’s location — for example, one for GDPR and another for CCPA/CPRA. You can run multiple configurations, as long as only your primary Domain Group contains your actual domain.
146
147 ### What is Google Consent Mode and how can I use it with Cookiebot? ###
148
149 Consent Mode lets Google tags adapt to each visitor’s choice. Cookiebot sends that consent status automatically, so conversions from consenting users are tracked as usual, and non-consenting visits are handled in a privacy-safe way to reduce data gaps in your reports. Result: clearer conversion visibility and steadier campaign optimization, without custom code — just enable Consent Mode in the Cookiebot Admin.
150
151 ### Does Cookiebot integrate with the WP Consent API? ###
152
153 Usercentrics Cookiebot is fully integrated with the WP Consent API. When your visitors give consent using Usercentrics Cookiebot, the consent will automatically be sent to the [WP Consent API](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-consent-api/).
154
155
156 ## Changelog ##
157 **Cookiebot by Usercentrics Plugin will soon no longer support PHP 5. If your website still runs on this version we recommend upgrading so you can continue enjoying the features Cookiebot by Usercentrics offers.**
