Show Me Options

How many times have you activated a plugin and the searched hopelessly for it's options page? With new plugins it is like a trend to hide them better.

Show Me Options is a plugin designed to give you a link to the options page when you need it and where you want it.

When you activate a new plugin, Show Me Options will show you a link you can use immediately.

No more wandering around menus, just install the plugin and click options - always waiting on the same place.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does it work?

Show Me Options has two methods for determining the plugin's options page. The first is to scan through the WordPress submenu structure and try to find a match. But sometimes WordPress authors get creative and come up with some unusual names. So then is the 'die hard' method applied, comparison of multidimensional arrays of submenu before and after the plugin activation.
