In the current design of the Administration Settings section, users encounter separate "Save" buttons for each setting. This layout can lead to confusion and inefficiency, as it's unclear whether each button saves its respective section or the entire page. Users may be unsure if they need to click all three buttons to ensure all changes are saved, potentially leading to a disjointed experience.

The suggested solution should be to have one single Save button.

It's debatable what the best UX here should be. Perhaps adjusting the Save button text to say something like "Save settings for XYZ" so it's clear it's for the section only could work here.
I'll assign to the product team for consideration but this may require a larger user testing to validate the issue.

Another note here: If we decide to introduce more meaningful titles for the settings instead of only showing the plugin name, we could also consider using some other way to display that. Having a long list is hard to look at, maybe using tabs could work out better - and would also make it clear that the save button is only for that specific set of settings.
