# Plug-In Settings Location (WordPress Dashboard)

 * Hi there!
 * When we “uncheck “Show plugin left menu” in the “Overview & Settings” tab of 
   the plug-in, the plug-in’s Settings are moved over to “Tools” section WordPress’
   dashboard as “WP DB Cleaner.”
 * At first, we couldn’t find the new settings location and the name convention 
   is confusing. Shouldn’t it be located in the “Settings” section of WordPress’
   dashboard? (click here for details: [http://prntscr.com/k83w0i](http://prntscr.com/k83w0i)).
 * Also, shouldn’t it be named, for example, “AD Cleaner” to agree with the title(
   i.e., name) of your plug-in?
 * Thank you.
 * PS: Great plug-in, by the way!

 * Dear [@jetxpert](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jetxpert/),
 * Thank you very much for your comments and for your review.
 * I have added the plugin to “Tools” section as I believe that it is considered
   a tool rather than a setting. Many other plugins follow this same idea an add
   their plugins to “Tools” section. I think there is no convention about this.
 * Concerning the name of the plugin, I think that you are right. The name should
   follow the title of the plugin. I will consider this for next releases.
 * Thank you for your suggestions.
 * Best regards.
