The cookie bar doesn't want to disappear definitely when I click on the OK button

[Bertrand-Bichat]

I have the same problem in production and development environment. When I click on the cookies_eu button "OK", the cookie bar disappears as expected. But if I go to another page of my website, sometimes the cookie bar appears again. Where is the problem ? I use Ruby 2.6.5 and Rails 5.2.4.1

Same issue (ruby 2.6.6)

I use Ruby 2.6.6 now, same issue. I don't use turbolinks.

I think it comes from the file '_consent_banner.html.erb' in views. There is this line to know if cookie bar is display or not :
<% if cookies && cookies['cookie_eu_consented'] != "true" %>

The problem is : 'cookies' variables is equal to a symbol :page (or :pages), so cookies['cookie_eu_consented'] is always equal to nil. How can I managed cookies to set cookies['cookie_eu_consented'] at true ? Is turbolinks mandatory ? I have seen this issue, but nothing works with me : #73

Hello community,
i had the same problem, but i finally found a easy solution here:
https://discuss.rubyonrails.org/t/js-cookie/73808

terminal:
yarn add js-cookie
app/javascript/packs/application.js
window.Cookies = require("js-cookie")

@frikkl it doesnt work for me tho ... I think the js-cookie is the completely different thing from cookies-eu

Sorry guys, but I just can't reproduce it. Can someone pls share me a boilerplate where I can reproduce it? I'm now testing it on Rails 5 and 6, works fine :(

Same issue. I just checked the browser console and found some error there.
Uncaught TypeError: Turbolinks.clearCache is not a function

[martinbarilik]

It seems you have a problem with turbolinks, not cookie bar. Can you share a code where you use .clearCache function ?

[ghost]

I just integrated the gem. No external js is added for same.
Turbolinks.clearCache(), its already defined in gem's javascript file.

Any suggestion to fix this, will be really helpful!
Thanks.
