    Hi,

    First off, great job on the plugin…it’s a good one.

    I have a suggestion. Can you move the settings page to the appropriate menu in the Dashboard? Right now it’s on the “Plugins” submenu but it should be listed on the “Settings” submenu, along with the majority of all the rest of the plugins. I think it would be handy to also have it on the Tools submenu, but that is just a suggestion as well.

    Thanks!

    This plugin doesn’t have settings page. Maybe you are referring to the main page for the plugin, that includes a single setting, which at this time we don’t see a need to create a separate settings page for.

    Yes, I’m referring to the main page of the plugin in the WordPress admin. I mean a “Settings” page in the WordPress development sense of the word. If it has a single setting on it, wouldn’t that still make it a settings page? ??

    Either way, if you don’t call it a settings page that’s totally fine, but then it seems that it would still make sense to have it on the “Tools” menu. Right now it’s just sitting there all by itself on the “Plugins” menu. You don’t see too many plugins with pages on that menu.

    Don’t get me wrong, this is a great plugin…we recommend it all the time. I’m just thinking about what would make it easier for people to use.

    The main purpose of the page isn’t settings, there just happens to be a single setting on the page, so it wouldn’t really be accurate to describe as a settings page.

    The page relates to plugins, so the most relevant menu is the “Plugins” menu, not the “Tools” menu. Just because that “Plugins” menu isn’t relevant for most plugins, doesn’t justify putting a relevant page on another menu instead.

    Just a suggestion. Up to you to do ask you like.
