 * Hi, and thank you for this great plugin 🙂
 * I am a bit baffled at the following settings **Search Plugins** in WordPress 
   admin. I am trying to work out what it actually does? The following is the instructions
   for this settings.
 * > Select the plugins you would like to disable/enable on the search results page.
 * What results page is it referring to?
 * Thank you in advance for your reply.
 * Regards

 * The default search result page for WordPress. If you add ?s=fghghhbvh to the 
   end of your site url it will search your site for fghghhbvh and present your 
   search page.

 * Thank you Jeff, I was not aware about the WordPress search query string **?s=**,
   Now know 😉
 * So my next question is what would adding a plugin to the Disable Standard in 
   search gain? What is the advantage? Can you give me an example?
 * Thank you in advance for your reply.

 * The search result page does not have a place on the admin to disable plugins 
   for it since it’s a dynamically generated page. So you can improve the performance
   of your search results by disabling plugins that aren’t needed on your search
   page. You can also solve plugin conflicts. This was a feature that users asked
   for.
