Hello all!
I have a client who wants to add a “meta pixel” to their webflow page that I created. Webflow offers a great solution for this: you can store the ID of the meta pixel directly in the Project Settings under Integrations. Below this, there is a switch that only activates the meta pixel (cookie) if the user allows it by agreeing to a cookie consent banner and not directly at the beginning of loading the page. This is exactly where I have a problem.
Webflow offers instructions on how to implement this cookie banner (Facebook Pixel | Webflow University). These instructions have already been implemented by a user as a finished cookie banner in webflow showcase (Facebook: GDPR Facebook Pixel with consent pop-up. - Webflow). Furthermore, I use the Chrome Add on Meta-Pixel (Meta Pixel Helper - Chrome Web Store) to detect if the pixel is running. However, if I clone this project, store the ID and activate the delay in the settings, and publish the whole thing, I have the following problem:
Loading the page → Pixel Helper shows that the pixel is not running → Clicking on “Accept Cookies” → Pixel Helper shows that the cookie is running.
This sounds good at first, but when I refresh the page, the cookie banner is hidden as intended, but Pixel Helper shows me that the pixel is not running and I have absolutely no idea why.
If anyone knows anything about this, I would be very happy to hear from you - I would be happy to provide more information!
