Question
How to disable the “Tell us whether you accept cookies” message in Plesk?
Answer
Note: Disabling the cookie notification in Plesk will set the default cookie behavior to “do not accept”, as the GDPR cookie compliance rules require an explicit user’s consent for accepting cookies.​
-
Install the Panel.ini Editor from the Extensions menu in Plesk.
-
Open Panel.ini Editor at Extensions > My Extensions.
-
In Panel.ini Editor, switch to the Editor tab.
-
Add the following content:
[gdpr]
cookieBox.enabled=false -
Click Save.
-
Connect to a Plesk server via SSH (Linux) / RDP (Windows Server).
-
Open the panel.ini file in a text editor (if there is no panel.ini file, rename panel.ini.sample to panel.ini):
-
on Linux
PLESK_INFO: /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/panel.ini
-
on Windows Server
PLESK_INFO: %plesk_dir%adminconf
-
-
Add the following lines to the file:
[gdpr]
cookieBox.enabled=false -
Save the changes and close the file.
