 * Hi [@salvatorefresta](https://wordpress.org/support/users/salvatorefresta/),
 * This is a really amazing plugin. Working super smooth and saving a ton of bandwidth!
   Thanks a lot.
 * Was wondering what’s the reason to create a top-level menu for a plugin with 
   a single page?
 * Also, this plugin is a 1-time setup so I don’t understand why it has to clutter
   the top-level menu and be shown in the view on every page in the dashboard sidebar.
   The long name makes it worse.
 * Can you please consider putting the plugin menu page inside the Settings menu
   instead?

 * Hi [@parasshah](https://wordpress.org/support/users/parasshah/) ,
    thank you!
 * In the very first versions, the link to the settings page was in the settings
   menu.
 * Now has a top-level menu because before there was a second menu item for logs(
   recently removed). There will be new ones soon, especially to view debug messages.

 * I guess that can go into tabs on the same page.
 * The reason I ask for this is this plugin is not something that one has to access
   every day and it’s taking up important space in the sidebar menu and is distracting..
   not a good UX.
 * Some articles/posts that explain the ideology:
