As the world goes digital, we need these standards.
As I already said, no plugin can offer 100% compliance due to the dynamic nature of websites. I'd recommend you to avoid any plugin that claims to offer 100% GDPR compliance. Most likely, they don’t know what they’re talking about. Or even worse, they are lying ...
If your website is not compliant, don’t panic. Just use the above information and get it done ASAP.
Finally, here are two additional resources that can help you to get a better understanding on this issue:
And that's it my friends!

There are a few "guides" to GDPR Compliance doing the rounds but this one, I believe, covers all aspects of the requirements.
Thanks again and have a great Christmas.

My site, theme and WP are fully updated (not to Gut, tho) and the comment privacy checkbox does not appear.
I tried the WP GDPR Compliance plugin but it seems overly complex and demands that the user agree to storing theirdetails before it accepts their comment. At least if I've understood it correctly.
Can you recommend a plugin to do the ticky box thing?

I don't know any free comment GDPR plugin because I'm using a paid third-party commenting solution.
But you could make a search in the WP plugin repository. And if you have a site-wide GDPR consent solution (for example a popup, a footer bar, etc) on your homepage, I'sd say that you are covered.
The theme didn't override the WP GDPR Compliance. Now I come to think oif it, I'm sure some other training somewhere said we didn't need it a ticky box for some reason 😱
Argh!

There are lot of training materials and a lot of experts out there ...
I've made all my research using official sources, so I'm pretty sure that my info is correct Ian.
Thank you
Ian
