 * We are using another plugin called Progress Maps (via Codecanyon). It seems that
   when your plugin (Draw Attention) is activated, it causes the tabs/navigation
   within that plugin’s settings to not work. I’ve reached out to the developer 
   of that plugin, and they mentioned:
 * > Just checked your test site. The problem is due to the fact that “Draw attention”
   > is loading its files on every page and this creates a conflict with our plugin
   > and any other plugin that uses the same settings API (CMB2). My recommendations
   > to fix this issue is to contact the plugin author and to ask them to do the
   > following updates in the plugin:
    1. Update CMB2 from 2.0.8 to the latest version 2.7.0
    2. To prevent loading the plugin files & CMB2 anywhere in the administration.
 * Otherwise, nothing can be done from my side to fix this issue.

 * Hello [@freshyjon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/freshyjon/) ,
 * Thanks for letting us know. I had thought we weren’t loading our plugin code 
   on every page, but we’ll double-check that and get it fixed if that’s the case.

   but I’d like to test it with you. Could you email us [support@wpdrawattention.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-conflict-266/support@wpdrawattention.com?output_format=md)
