 * Hi Phil,
 * I was looking at the advanced plugin settings after the latest update, and noticed
   that the custom cookie name option (which I haven’t tried) appends “ag_” to the
   beginning of the custom name. Are the normal (non-custom, default) Age Gate uses
   still age_gate and age_gate_failed? (That is, the default cookie names haven’t
   been changed to something starting with ag_, have they?) I just want to make 
   sure my cookie notice is still correct.
 * Thanks a lot!

 * Hi [@ate-up-with-motor](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ate-up-with-motor/),
 * That’s been there a while, but no there’s no change to the default cookie names
   so your notice is all good if you’re using those. I just add the ag_ prefix to
   prevent clashes if someone sets their own.
 * Thanks
    Phil

 * Great, thanks! (I know that option has been there for a while, but it hadn’t 
   occurred to me to ask the question before.)
