    Hi @newmediologo ,

    Thanks for reporting this — and sorry for the inconvenience, especially since you already have a dedicated GDPR plugin handling consent on your sites.

    You’re right, this is a bug in 5.4.0. The consent banner shouldn’t appear when GDPR Compliance Mode is turned off, but a change in the recent update accidentally left it showing regardless of that setting. This is on us.

    We’ve already fixed it and it’s tracked here: https://github.com/wp-slimstat/wp-slimstat/issues/140

    We’re preparing v5.4.1 right now and it should be released within the next few hours, so this will be resolved very soon. Once you see the update available, just update the plugin and the banner will be gone.

    Sorry about the hassle, and thanks for your patience!

    Hi @newmediologo ,

    Thanks for your patience on this — we know having to deactivate the plugin on two sites isn’t ideal, and we’re sorry it came to that.

    We’ve just released version 5.4.1, which fixes the unwanted consent banner. You should see the update available in your Plugins page now. Once you update, you can safely reactivate SlimStat and config the banner won’t appear anymore.

    Thanks again for flagging this!

    Best,
