My banner is not loading the correct configuration or version

Written by Alexandre Dias Da Silva

You just published an update to your Axeptio banner, but the correct configuration, version, or language is not displaying on your site?

Don't worry! Several causes can explain this behavior. This article helps you identify them.

My banner is displaying an old configuration

You modified and published your banner, but the changes are not showing. In most situations, the problem is related to browser cache or cookies.

What to check

  • Clear your browser cache and cookies

  • Reload the page in private browsing mode

  • Test from another browser or device

👉 Why?

Your browser may retain a cached older version of the banner and continue to display it, even if a new configuration has been published on the Axeptio side.

My banner is not displaying the same steps as those I see in the Axeptio admin preview

If you integrated Axeptio via a CMS integration (Shopify, WordPress, etc.), the integration may automatically add an additional step to manage services specific to the platform:

  • Shopify cookies in the case of Shopify integration: the purposes listed in this step are not editable and this screen cannot be removed for regulatory reasons

  • cookies generated by your other plugins in the case of WordPress integration

  • ... and so on!

My banner is displaying in the wrong language

If your site is multilingual and the banner is not displaying in the expected language, it is likely that language management is not configured correctly.

What to check

  • Have you properly configured language management in accordance with our documentation?

  • Does the language detected by Axeptio match the language of the page displayed?

  • Is a language being forced in your integration (CMS, JavaScript, Google Tag Manager, etc.)?

👉 Axeptio relies on your configuration to determine which language version to load. Incorrect configuration can result in a different language being loaded.

My banner is displaying different configurations unpredictably

It is possible that Axeptio is integrated multiple times on your site, sometimes with different configurations.

What to check

  • Open your browser console

  • Check if the following error is displayed:

    "Axeptio SDK is already loaded"

If this is the case:

  • Make sure to keep only one integration method

    • direct integration in the code

    • via Google Tag Manager

    • or via your CMS

👉 Loading Axeptio multiple times can cause unexpected behavior and prevent the correct configuration from being applied.

Otherwise, it is also possible that certain configuration options influence the version of the banner loaded on your site.

Step 1: Check the cookiesVersion parameter

Make sure you are not forcing the loading of a specific configuration via the cookiesVersion parameter:

  • directly in the Axeptio script

  • in a Google Tag Manager tag

  • or in your CMS integration

If this parameter is set, Axeptio will load only this version, even if another configuration is published.

Step 2: Check other targeting rules

Then check if you have configured:

  • URL-based rules

  • geolocation rules

👉 These rules can result in a different configuration being loaded depending on the page visited or the user's country.
