[wp-testers] Menu editing - page not fully loading

[Les Bessant]

Time to delurk again.

I've been working with the Alpha on a couple of test sites. One is a small one with just a couple of posts, on my standard web hosting, the other is a copy of my live site (over 4,000 posts), running on MAMP.

On rev 13845, the menu editing page works fine on the small site, but fails to complete loading on the larger one. It stops rendering after the "Add custom links" box - no page footer, and the "Page Options" link doesn't work.

I've looked at the source of the rendered pages, which was, err, "interesting". In the (hidden) div for "Add an Existing Post", it appears to be loading not just post titles (which could lead to a moderately large page), but the whole content of the post, which will rapidly lead to an insanely large page (the working site comes to over 300kb, the non-working one dies without rendering the DIV in question.

Seems to be affecting a number of people:
