"Cookies are blocked or not supported by your browser."

Sound familiar? This error locks thousands of WordPress users out daily. Shopify stores face similar nightmares with broken cookie banners.

These aren't random glitches. They're predictable problems with known solutions.

WordPress Cookie Errors That Kill Your Site

"Cookies are blocked due to unexpected output" happens when PHP sends data before WordPress sets headers. Cookie-related errors usually occur when PHP sends output before WordPress sets its headers. Check your functions.php for extra spaces or blank lines.

"Cookie check failed" stems from caching plugins storing expired data. The "cookie check failed" error is usually the result of your caching plugin storing expired data and using it to validate processes like form submissions and logins. Clear cache, deactivate caching plugins temporarily.

Login failures with cookie messages occur when session cookies can't be set properly. Usually caused by plugin conflicts or server configuration issues.

Shopify Cookie Banner Problems

Banner not showing on mobile affects 40% of traffic. Non-responsive cookie banners break on smaller screens. Users can't consent properly.

Third-party cookies blocked breaks apps and tracking. Blocking 3rd party cookies breaks most apps. Chrome and Safari block these by default now.

Cookie banner keeps reappearing during development and production. Cookie banner appearing on every page load during theme development on localhost, even after accepting it. Local storage conflicts cause this.

Translation apps break banners. If you're using a translation app, make sure it's compatible with the Shopify cookie banner. Manual translation needed in theme files.

• Users can't login or checkout
• Analytics data becomes unreliable
• Marketing campaigns lose attribution
• GDPR compliance violations

For business owners: lost sales from broken checkouts. Compliance fines from cookie violations.
