Hi Jörg, 

the closest thing to this is the $account_privacy_policy_url variable which allows you to embed an arbitrary URL which will then be inserted at account creation. But this isn't on every page, so I guess it doesn't meet the requirements.

I've opened a feature request for this. 

Ideally I'd implement something general enough to handle the *superset* of what different regimes may require. So, EVERYONE ELSE - if your jurisdiction has requirements of the same kind, please chime in on the comments to the above feature request. I'll take all such info into consideration.

But it won't be done in the immediate future due to pressure of work I'm afraid.

best

Andrew.

OK, we are still running CQPweb v3.2.42 © 2008-2020 - and when cqpweb is already changed along the lines below, it is a compelling reason for an immediate upgrade.

By German law we are required to provide links on every web page to a so-called impressum (naming the provider of a website), data protection statement (telling something about the data we store and process, and naming the data protection officer), and even accessibility (telling something about accessibility of the website). Ideally, these links and their anchor texts would be configurable by some variables in lib/config.inc.php, a typical placement for them is the footer of the page, say, in the center position of the footer.

Has someone done this already and is willing to share a solution?

Thanks in advance,

Jörg Knappen

P.S. Accessibility is probably the worst thing, but stating that something is not yet accessible seems to be OK for the moment. The other two are pretty standard, I just need a place to plug them in.
