Cookie Management ?

At a glance

The community member discusses using the iuBenda plugin to ensure GDPR compliance, where users need to accept or deny cookies before plugins like Google Analytics can be loaded. They mention using a free and open-source static site generator (SSG) that manages this process well, and suggest others could get inspired by it. The comments discuss whether the Publii SSG is a good fit for blogging use cases and CMS, with one community member noting it is not easy to automate content injection into Publii's SQLite database, but they prefer it for GDPR compliance compared to other options like Hugo, Notion, and NextJS.

Useful resources
From what I understood by playing with iuBenda it's, to be compliant, I'm speaking mostly from a GDPR point of view
the user need to accept or deny them before
then plugins such as Google Analytics, ... could be loaded

One free and Open Source SSG I use from time to time, manage it perfectly
Maybe it is possible to get inspired by them

is there a good widget for now that can be used via project settings scripts?
Btw getpublii is an interesting product, I wonder if its a good fit for a lot of blogging use cases to be used as a CMS with webstudio
for those who want a completely custom design, since their theming options are basic
I very love Publii, the developpers knows the web, but:
it is not easy/impossible to automate to inject content in their SQLite
they are kind of in their world where you need to cut and past the last process
Before GDPR and Publii; I had a flow before that was obsidian to Hugo, then I switch to Obsidian which push to Notion to -> NextJS with (https://github.com/transitive-bullshit/nextjs-notion-starter-kit)

But since GDPR; I always come back to Publii since, most of my user/customer are low publisher and care more about being compliant and secure.
I sync it with Google Drive (NextCloud and SyncThing were awful with it. Publii delete and recreate the whole preview and output directory for every preview).

to answer your question

Publii is not a CMS, so no I would not recommend it for that case.

I would prefer you tell me to use AirTable or Notion as CMS than Publii.

  • but for a in between target Ghost or WordPress might be a great.
