CSS not respected in shortcode output

Hello, its kinda strange that Matomo shortcode output for GRDP does not respect theme’s CSS as it is supposed to be put in privacy page.

Hi,

This is because the normal Matomo opt-out code is in an iFrame and therefore completly independent from your Website (and therfore also the CSS on your website).
You could use the font-size and font parameters to make it look a bit less out of place.

Once the non-iframe opt-out method (that places the text directly on your website) is added to the plugin, this should look fine.

Enhancement

Since we are already on the right domain it should be quite easy to have an opt …out which does not rely on iframes. That makes it easier to integrate it into the same site to have same look and feel automatically. I suppose this could be done quite easily? The main challenge be to change the shown message based on the current status where we would need to write some vanilla JS (but that shouldn't be hard) eg when opting out we need to change the shown message on demand.
