NoMAD login admin and NoMAD AD Help issue

Hey folks! We're brand new to JAMF and NoMAD and this has been a heck of a learning curve. We're having two specific problems with NoMAD that I'm hoping someone can look at the plist and just tell me how dumb I am for missing something obvious.

In NoMAD Login I have the account set to become admin but...they aren't.

And in our NoMAD AD settings nothing we set will change the Get Help URL from support.apple.com.

What on earth are we doing wrong? I've used Profile Creator and just tried manually changing someone else's plist.

I managed to discover the issue myself. The long story short is that, for whatever reason, Nomad did not like having all the extraneous stuff in it that Profile Creator throws in. I pared it down to basics and now Nomad AD and Nomad Login are working beautifully. Example below:
