# Menu Items for Plugins

 * Hello,
    Love the concept of this plugin – it should be part of wordpress core
   IMO – but I am testing on a staging site for a project that will have a number
   of large and complex plugins that are more or less compartmentalized as separate
   services. I have gone through the process of configuring it to only load the 
   plugins when they’re needed and I’m seeing some massive performance boosts, but
   I am also noticing that the menu items for the plugins I am attempting to selectively
   load are not working after doing just that. There are 5 in total and all but 
   1 menu item for these plugins don’t work. They are either custom links to plugin-
   generated pages, pages that were manually created and populated with a plugin
   shortcode, and one that says it’s a “post type archive” but is basically a plugin-
   generated page.
 * How do I fix this issue?
 * Also, possibly related Feature Request: is there a way to choose which scripts
   to load or not load from each plugin like [the script manager](https://perfmatters.io/docs/disable-scripts-per-post-page/)
   in perfmatters.io? I prefer this plugins approach to filtering page, post, and
   content type to load which plugins and also for its ability to reorder how plugins
   are loaded, but that other plugin further breaks down how plugins load by scripts.
   I know there are developer tools, like google chromes [coverage tab](https://developers.google.com/web/tools/chrome-devtools/coverage),
   that tells you which scripts are being used by how much! Right now it feels like
   a sophie’s choice which plugin to go with from a site admins perspective…
 * Cheers,
    Brandon

 * I’m guessing then that these issues cannot be resolved with this plugin because
   of the way it is executed as an all-or-nothing for turning plugins on and off.
   Like I said, this plugin and perfmatters are very similar but they have different
   strategies. I prefer plugin organizer’s filtering capabilities but perfmatters
   ability to turn on and off individual scripts is much more fine tuned and is 
   the source of my issues with plugin organizer.
