I declared a `myplugin_enabled` site setting in `config/settings.yml`, `config/locales/server.en.yml` and `plugin.rb` (as described [here](https://meta.discourse.org/t/beginners-guide-to-creating-discourse-plugins-part-3-custom-settings/31115)),.  
However, I’ve recently discovered that unchecking the box doesn’t disable my plugin. The plugin is loaded - and works correctly, including accessing other site settings - whatever the checkbox state.  
Any hint?
