Cannot select cookie conset form from visual selector or browser steps

[Xantha123]

Hello, first of all, thanks for this amazing tool!
I am living in Germany and therefore have to deal with cookie consent forms. I self-host my Changedetection instance and run SockPuppetBrowser.
When I visit www.rtl.de and www.toom.de as example sites, I get a popup to accept the cookies, which is not selectable in the browser steps. In my regular browser, I can inspect the accept button and extract title, name, etc. However, when I enter these extracted values in the browser steps, it sadly doesn't work either. :(

I noticed that the popup from RTL is inside an iframe, and the one from Toom uses something in the Shadow DOM. Even when connected to a BrightData scraping browser, I still get these popups. (I used the BrightData scraping browser because I was trying to access www.smythstoys.com, which uses very strong anti-bot mechanisms.)

I tried checking the wiki and other comments to see if I missed something in my setup, but I didn’t really find a solution.
I also subscribed to the Changedetection hosted service, just to try if it has these issues as well — and there, no popups appear! You guys must be doing something different than I am. XD

Any help would be really appreciated. Keep up the good work!

Hi Use Undetected Chromedriver with Selenium and you should be good to overcome this.
