Title: Settings opens different plugin’s settings Last modified: November 16, 2018 --- # Settings opens different plugin’s settings * Resolved [digbymaass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/digbymaass/) * (@digbymaass) * [7 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/settings-opens-different-plugins-settings/) * I’ve just installed stopbadbots. * When I click on its settings link (`/wp-admin/admin.php?page=settings`) it opens a badly styled version of the settings page for the plugin ‘Download Manager’ instead of the stopbadbots settings page. * The actual settings page for ‘Download Manager’ is `/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type =wpdmpro&page=settings`. * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fsettings-opens-different-plugins-settings%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) * Plugin Author [sminozzi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sminozzi/) * (@sminozzi) * [7 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/settings-opens-different-plugins-settings/#post-10887877) * Hi, * The link should be: [http://carnethy.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=settings](http://carnethy.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=settings) Please, double check if your plugin version is 5.17 Check your wordpress version if is at least 4.9.8 Check if you have memory free available **Dashboard => Stop Bad Bots => Dashboard** * For more troubleshootings, take a look this page: [http://siterightaway.net/troubleshooting/](http://siterightaway.net/troubleshooting/) Please, let ke know after that. * Cheers, Bill * Thread Starter [digbymaass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/digbymaass/) * (@digbymaass) * [7 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/settings-opens-different-plugins-settings/#post-10888187) * The link is as you quoted. The second link was to Download Manager’s settings page. It’s sufficiently different that you wouldn’t think there’d be a problem. * Clicking the SBB settings link opens `http://carnethy.com/wp-admin/admin.php? page=settings` but instead of it showing SBB settings it shows a distorted version of Download Manager’s settings. * If I disable ‘Download Manager’, SBB’s settings load properly * It’s the latest version of the plugin and WordPress. I have tons of memory free. * I would think it’s a conflict. - This reply was modified 7 years, 6 months ago by [digbymaass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/digbymaass/). * Plugin Author [sminozzi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sminozzi/) * (@sminozzi) * [7 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/settings-opens-different-plugins-settings/#post-10888284) * Yes, unfortunately looks like a conflict with another plugin. * Thread Starter [digbymaass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/digbymaass/) * (@digbymaass) * [7 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/settings-opens-different-plugins-settings/#post-10888324) * Might it be simple to fix? * Plugin Author [sminozzi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sminozzi/) * (@sminozzi) * [7 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/settings-opens-different-plugins-settings/#post-10889335) * I’m working hard to align all ours plugins and themes with wordpress 5 and Gutenberg.
