Hi,

Is it possible to rename mysticky-welcomebar-fixed-wrap or make it dynamic? It seems EasyList Cookie filter in AdBlock have now caught on and blocking this as a “Cookie” banner when most sites use this as an announcement not cookie message (that’s normally bottom left/right).
```
Filter ##.mysticky-welcomebar-fixed-wrap
Filter list EasyList Cookie 
Type dom
```
Cheers.

Hey again @davidblood , thanks for your patience. We had this checked within the team, but we weren’t able to reproduce any such issue with the My Sticky Menu plug-in welcome bar and AdBlocker. Please let me know your thoughts!
As a kind reminder, you can also reach out to [email protected] at any time.

That’s very odd, @davidblood ! We’ll try to contact them to see what they say.

It seems many use this plugin for cookie messages and that filter is designed to hide cookie related info (we don’t care about cookies) filter.

I’ve never seen cookies at the top of a website bar though! Normally sites display cookie banners like this (or a modal in middle of page or something). Never seen a Menu, Hellobar or Navbar-style used for cookies!

I believe you’ve to open an Issue on their GitHub for review, not 100% sure.

Hi @karinapremio, thanks for getting back to me! It seems it’s working now and the banner is allowed again.

Seems they updated their site to be more specific to just one website inside of ALL websites based on this code change.

Thanks for the swiftly responses!
