Question

I am trying to set a cookie with a delayed amount of time.

I want the cookie to be set after 80 minutes on the page.

here is my code –

$(document).ready(function() {
            // Set the cookie after 81 mins so the next visit has the button
            $.cookie('EVGSalesLetter', 'visited').delay(4860000); 
        });

Answer 1

.delay() is for the animation queue, to just generally set a timer use setTimeout(), like this:

setTimeout(function() { $.cookie('EVGSalesLetter', 'visited'); }, 4860000);

I didn’t stick this in a document.ready because I’m assuming (hopefully safely…) that ater 81 minutes your page has fully loaded 🙂
