There isn't a rule or guideline whether a plugin should make a tab or link under settings or if it even has to do any of the above. We all agreed that all plugins should have a link under settings. If the plugin enhances a different part of the site, the settings page could just tell you where the plugin feature is located. We also agreed that themes should put features like a static front page under customize like most already do, though I heard Responsive doesn't. I was told it puts static front page under settings. If it is a theme feature, then logically you should be able to at least find a link to where the features are under themes. Implementing general rules for plugins and themes would make !WordPress easier to use. Does anyone else agree? ",feature request,new,normal,Awaiting Review,General,3.5.1,trivial,,ui-feedback,info@…,
