 * Hello,
 * I notice that this plugin uses a custom capability to allow other users to manage
   options: `advanced_ads_manage_options`. Unfortunately, it looks like some of 
   the forms submitted directly to `options.php`, which kind of defeats the purpose
   of this custom capability. I’ve been trying to allow the Editor Role full access
   to this plugin’s settings, but this hang-up prevents me from doing so.
 * Could a future version of this plugin be converted away from using `options.php`
   so that other user roles without the `manage_options` capability could submit
   some of these settings forms?
