Hi
I was wondering if it might not be better UX if every settings related stuff where in a setting menu
This is where we come from with sh404SEF and that's OK for smaller extensions, not when you start having many options. For 4SEO, I elected to have "logical" grouping: all Pages/page analysis settings are on the Pages page, all Structured data settings are on that page, same for sitemaps etc. Having a single place is just too much of an issue when you have a couple hundreds settings.
better yet an omnisearch which would find any settings related to 4SEO at the top of the admin interface of 4SEO
I don't believe an omnisearch is suited for non-developers users. In addition, in most cases, people actually don't know what to search for. In any case, you'd need a centralized settings area for that, which I'm not in favor of anymore.
One more thing. I get a lot of could not save configuration errors but it saves it ok. Maybe that's another ticket.
If you can provide reproducible conditions, yes. I have not heard of it yet and have not experienced that myself.
Best regards
