I have seen 2 issues in the discourse forum. one in the ad plugin settings and second in adplugin performance. Let’s me explain here.

### #1 adpplugin settings not working

When I visit setttings \>\> plugins and click on discourse-adplugin settings button, I see this this “no result found”

You can fix this with showing all results. For this, please replace this url in plugin.

**Replace this**

`https://example.com/admin/site_settings/category/plugins?filter=plugin%3Adiscourse-adplugin`

**with this url.**

`https://example.com/admin/site_settings/category/all_results?filter=plugin%3Adiscourse-adplugin`

This is good for better user experience and no need to click on left navigation options.

### #2. Adplugin script loaded when not using plugin.

I see that when I have not used adplugin and have not placed any ads via this plugin, than why this plugin’s script loaded.

I see your other plugin and they have enable/disable option. Please add this setting in plugin otherwise stop script to load by default, it should be load only when plugin is used.

I hope you will take good action about it,

Thanks!
