WordPress Legal Pages Plugin – WPLegalPages Pro Review (Updated 2025)

Ignorantia juris non excusat – is Latin for “you can’t use ‘ignorance’ as an excuse to relieve yourself from any law you might have broken” – that’s a legal principle. And a good one at that, you don’t want a thief to get away with your laptop because he didn’t know stealing was a crime, right?

In reality, same principle applies to blog-related disclosures, impressums, privacy policy page, legal pages, disclaimers, terms and conditions and so on. Especially, if yours is a merchant blog on WordPress, which uses online payments or you are using affiliate partnerships as a revenue model. Google too, has compliance requirements if you are using Google AdSense and such products.

Many a time we don’t know about these requirements as bloggers or even as WordPress developers. Even if we do know, we are never too sure how to go about it. Fortunately, plugins like Privacy Policy Generator WordPress Plugin – WPLegalPages Pro for setting privacy policy on blogs come to our rescue. It is a one-stop shop for setting up legal pages, impressum and a lot more  on any WordPress blog.

You also get a short code for your new template that you can use on any of your other pages or posts. Don’t miss the notes field which is visible only to admin. Just what we all need to remind us why we did, what we did.

As you can see, you can have a legal page pop-up too. This is for those of your sites where it’s necessary for user to agree with Legal Pages.

You have an option to exclude or include each of the legal pages in your site’s navigation. This way, you can pick where you want the pages to show up, irrespective of whether or not you are using a free or a premium WordPress theme.

What’s more, for formatting sticklers like me, it picks up the font from the WordPress theme in use.

Last but easily the most important one – even if it is all very simple, things are made simpler by having short support videos that give you detailed “how to”s, including a troubleshooting video.

What you do need to keep in mind though is that having the legal pages privacy policy generator plugin doesn’t legally protect you. But then no such plugin possibly could. That is the nature of legalities. But, this plugin is as cookie-cutter as this requirement could get.

Note the word, “requirement” in that sentence above. Like it or not, you have to have it only to protect yourself. Better safe than sorry. Always.
