I checked by install.xml file. I have: <optionsURL></optionsURL> So I have a tag, but it's empty. The effect of this is that it appears within the Plugins tab as a link to the plugin's Settings (but the link obviously fails), but within Advanced settings the plugin is not listed as having any settings page. So there is an inconsistency between the two places that you can use to navigate to plugin settings. >BTW: it should be identical in Default and in any other skin, as they are >using the same template. Classic, Fishbone and Handheld skins display settings links for all plugins (even if there are no settings), whereas the Default skin only displays a settings link if there are server settings. Default skin lumps all of the plugins with settings under the "Advanced" tab, so it looks fairly tidy. Other skins don't have an Advanced settings page - the items appear as other settings tabs directly within server settings page (or drop-down list in the case of fishbone). Handheld looks particularly naff, because it displays all server settings tabs and plugin settings tabs across the top of the settings page, which can be a long list wrapping round over several lines (10 lines on my PDA). I know you like the plugins settings to be duplicated under Advanced tab in the Default skin, but perhaps other skins should not display direct links to plugin settings (navigate to them via plugins settings tab only). Now "plugins" term is back in fashion (rather than "extras") that does seem to make sense.
