Accepting cookie consent does not dismiss modal dialog

[joshooaj]

I'm using the anchor tag #__consent to enable the user to launch the cookie consent dialog on demand, and when you manually launch the dialog this way, the Accept button does not dismiss the dialog. It basically reloads the page with /#__consent still in the URL. So you have to manually remove the anchor tag from the URL to get it to go away.

Right now I have the link as a button in the footer. I put the link there using the copyright property in mkdocs.yml. Not the most obvious place for it but it was a quick and easy way to give the user access to it on any page. The behavior is the same though whether I do it this way, or put [Change cookie settings](#__consent) in the body of a page.

You can see the behavior on milestonepstools.com. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click the "Change cookie settings" button.
