# Can’t hide new layout notice

 * On the admin screen I’m getting “**Ultimate WordPress Auction Plugin:** Important
   Message – We have implemented a new layout for the auction list page and auction
   detail page. The new layout appears by default on both pages. We have given the
   option to change the layout for auction pages. So, the admin can set the old 
   layout or new layout from the auction settings. [Hide Notice](http://localhost:8080/wp-admin/?wdm_uwa_pro_ignore=0&wdm_uwa_plugin_layout_ignore=0)“.
   Clicking “Hide Notice” doesn’t hide it!
 * The link underlying “Hide Notice” is <my site>/wp-admin/admin.php?page=ultimate-
   auction&wdm_uwa_plugin_layout_ignore=0
 * I think there are the following problems in the code:
    - wdm_uwa_plugin_layout_notice: nonce that is generated is not included in the
      link
    - wdm_uwa_plugin_layout_ignore: becuase a link is being used, $_GET should be
      used rather than $_POST
    - wdm_uwa_plugin_layout_ignore: if the nonce had been included, the wp_verify_nonce
      arguments are wrong. Think they should be something like: wp_verify_nonce(
      $_GET[‘ua_layout_wp_n_f’], ‘wdm_uwa_plugin_layout_ignore’ )
 * Pending a fix I can workaround the problem using this WP CLI:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       wp user meta add <user_id> wdm_uwa_plugin_layout_ignore_notice true
       ```

 * There are similar issues with the “Get Pro” notice involving functions wdm_uwa_pro_add_plugins_notice
   and wdm_uwa_pro_ignore.
 * WP CLI workaround:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       wp user meta add <user_id> wdm_uwa_pro_ignore_notice true
       ```
