# Plugin – cookies – inline js – issue

 * Hello,
    I have a site where user messages (in a bar on top of screen) are saved
   into cookies and are removed by javascript. The problem is the plugin seems to
   kill it when Optimize JavaScript Code is selected. I discovered that there is
   a code snippet: <script>Cookies.remove(‘messages’);</script> in a php file that
   i need to function. How can i get the plugin to ignore this snippet? I cannot
   seem to determine the identifier as none have worked.. (per faqs) – How would
   i use a no-optimize tag for this? Thanks! BTW, the plugin works great! (aside
   from this minor theme issue.. :))
 * Thanks a lot!

 * depends; is that block of JS-code inlined in the output HTML? or is the php-file
   referenced?

 * You know i am really not sure… The entire file code is:
 *     ```
       <?php $messages = Inventor_Utilities::get_messages(); ?>
       <?php if ( ! empty( $messages ) && is_array( $messages ) ) : ?>
           <div class="alerts">
               <?php foreach ( $messages as $message ) : ?>
                   <div class="alert-primary alert alert-dismissible alert-<?php echo esc_attr( $message[0] ); ?>">
                       <div class="alert-inner">
                           <div class="container">
                               <?php echo wp_kses( $message[1], wp_kses_allowed_html( 'post' ) ); ?>
   
                               <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert"><i class="fa fa-close"></i></button>
                           </div>
                       </div><!-- /.alert-inner -->
                   </div><!-- /.alert -->
               <?php endforeach; ?>
           </div><!-- /.alerts -->
   
          <script>Cookies.remove('messages');</script>
       <?php endif; ?>
       ```
   
 * This does not work btw: <!–noptimize–> <script>Cookies.remove(‘messages’);</script
   > <!–/noptimize–>

 * well, don’t see that JS even with AO disabled (add `?ao_noptimize=1` to the URL)
   but that might be because I’m not logged in?
 * but did you try adding `plugins/inventor/` to the JS optimization exclusion list(
   as your PHP-snippet mentions `Inventor_Utilities`?

 * hi, so i tried adding the plugin /inventor but still no luck.
 * i did see this with chrome inspector:
    Uncaught ReferenceError: Cookies is not
   defined at autoptimize_7b4b5bc….js:1998
 * thx,

 * well, it does confirm we’re getting closer 🙂
 * there’s `plugins/inventor/libraries/js.cookie.js` which should already be excluded,
   but also `plugins/inventor-google-map/libraries/js-cookie.js`, so add `plugins/
   inventor-google-map/` to the exclusions maybe?
 * have a nice weekend!
