This guide shows you how to add the Kukie.io cookie consent banner to your Nuxt.js application. Nuxt makes it easy to add external scripts via the configuration file.

Prerequisite: You need a Kukie.io account and at least one site added. If you haven't done this yet, follow Create Your Account & Add Your First Site first.

Step 1: Get Your Embed Code

Log in to your Kukie.io dashboard, navigate to your site, and copy the embed code from the Setup tab. It looks like this:

<script src="https://cdn.kukie.io/s/YOUR-SITE-KEY/c.js" async></script>

Replace YOUR-SITE-KEY with the actual site key shown in your dashboard.

Step 2: Add the Script to Nuxt.js

Nuxt 3

Open nuxt.config.ts and add the script to the app.head configuration:

export default defineNuxtConfig({
    app: {
        head: {
            script: [
                {
                    src: 'https://cdn.kukie.io/s/YOUR-SITE-KEY/c.js',
                    async: true,
                }
            ]
        }
    }
})

Nuxt 2

Open nuxt.config.js and add to the head object:

export default {
    head: {
        script: [
            {
                src: 'https://cdn.kukie.io/s/YOUR-SITE-KEY/c.js',
                async: true,
            }
        ]
    }
}

Run npm run build or restart your dev server for the config change to take effect.

Step 3: Verify the Installation

Visit your website in a new browser window (or incognito/private mode). You should see the Kukie.io consent banner appear. If it does not show, check the following:

• Open your browser's Developer Tools (F12) and look for the script in the Network tab — it should load with a 200 status
• Check the Console tab for any JavaScript errors
• Make sure you published/saved your changes in your Nuxt.js app
• Clear any platform-level cache if applicable
