Set cookie to menu jquery

Question

I have a code:

I have two buttons and two list. This is my code code:

 $(document).on('mouseenter', '.select-user-type-js', function() { $('.select-user-type-js.active').add($(this)).toggleClass('active'); if ($(this).hasClass('select-user-type_customer')) { $('#buyer').show(); $('#seller').hide(); } else { $('#buyer').hide(); $('#seller').show(); } }); $(document).on("click", ".select-user-type-js", function() { if ($(this).hasClass('select-user-type_customer')) { $.cookie("tab", 'select-user-type_customer'); } else { $.cookie("tab", 'select-user-type_performer'); } }); if ($.cookie("select-user-type_customer")) { $('#buyer')).show(); $('#seller').hide(); $('.select-user-type_performer').not($(this)).removeClass('active'); } else { $('#seller')).show(); $('#buyer').hide(); $('.select-user-type_customer').not($(this)).removeClass('active'); } 

 <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <a href="" class="select-user-type-js select-user-type_customer active">Customer</a> <a href="" id="seller" class="select-user-type-js select-user-type_performer">Seller</a> <ul id="buyer"> <li><a href="#">Menu for buyer #1</a></li> <li><a href="#">Menu for buyer #2</a></li> <li><a href="#">Menu for buyer #3</a></li> </ul> <ul id="seller" style="display: none;"> <li><a href="#">Menu for seller #1</a></li> <li><a href="#">Menu for seller #2</a></li> <li><a href="#">Menu for seller #3</a></li> </ul> 

How I can write to cookie menu? When user reload to page, to save the menu that he chose, when clicking to specific button..? My Code is not working for cookie

Answer 1

Here is a working demo of your example with Cookie

$(document).on('mouseenter', '.select-user-type-js', function() {
  $('.select-user-type-js.active').add($(this)).toggleClass('active');
  if ($(this).hasClass('select-user-type_customer')) {
    $('#buyer').show();
    $('#seller').hide();
  } else {
    $('#buyer').hide();
    $('#seller').show();
  }
});

$(document).on("click", ".select-user-type-js", function(e) {
  e.preventDefault()
  if ($(this).hasClass('select-user-type_customer')) {
    Cookies.set("tab", 'select-user-type_customer');
  } else {
    Cookies.set("tab", 'select-user-type_performer');
  }
});

if (Cookies.get("tab") == 'select-user-type_customer') {
  $('#buyer').show();
  $('#seller').hide();
  $('.select-user-type_customer').addClass('active');
} else {
  $('#seller').show();
  $('#buyer').hide();
  $('.select-user-type_performer').AddClass('active');
}

when you need to check the cookie value you have to do Cookies.get("tab") == 'select-user-type_customer' and not Cookies.get("select-user-type_customer")
