Web Connector 23.4

# Ignore Cookie Banners

Many web sites present banners asking visitors whether they want to accept optional cookies. You might want to prevent this content being indexed into your IDOL text index and from being rendered in page previews.

You can use clipping to remove cookie banners, but you are likely to need a different configuration for each web site that you want to process.

Another way to remove cookie banners is to use the EasyList Cookie List from https://easylist.to. To use the EasyList filtering rules with IDOL Web Connector, download the list to a directory that the connector can access and then set the configuration parameter BlockingFiltersDirectory.
