What matters for consent with Header Footer Code Manager
The snippet decides
The plugin itself only places your code. A tracker in that code needs consent, wherever it is pasted.
Google Analytics waits
A Google tag for Google Analytics pasted in the header is held by Cookie Rocks: nothing goes to Google before the choice, and its cookies appear after Accept all.
No change to your snippets
You keep pasting the code you got from the provider. Cookie Rocks holds known trackers until consent.
