[wp-testers] Menu Formatting and Child/Sub Menu - I managed to break ...

I'm not using home in my menus (it'll be a rather annoying intro).
Good news is your last fixes made it so I couldn't get the save to be
catatonic but the nesting  breaks down after a while.

Build RC1-15022
Deleted all menus.
To construct menu I:
Add 7 pages; reorder; move 6 to child position; save
Add Custom; link to http://#; erase link in drop down; save
Add 3 categories; reorder; move to child of custom; save
Add Custom; link to http://#; erase link in drop down; save
Add 2 categories;  move to child of custom; save
Add Custom; link to http://#; erase link in drop down; save
Add 1 category;  move to child of custom; save
Add 4 posts; TRY TO MOVE TO CHILD OF CATEGORY- BEST I CAN DO IS GET 1ST POST
TO CHILD OF CUSTOM, OTHERS CHILD OF FIRST POST
I SAVE - THE 4 POSTS SAVE AS PRIMARY PARENT AND 3 CHILDREN
I reorder 3 children; move to correct level; REORDERING SAVES NOT LEVEL
CORRECTION
Add 1 category (CAT X); save
Add 1 post; move to child; save
moved CAT X & post to 1st child under 3rd custom link; save
Add 1 post; TRIED TO MOVE TO UNDER LAST POST ADDED (child of CATX) WOULD
ONLY GO TO CHILD OF CUSTOM POSITION
save
Added 4 more posts; moved to posts under CAT X; save (NESTING ALL WRONG)

Add 9 posts; reorder; save
delete all posts under CAT X; save
move last 8 posts to children of 9th post; save
moved under cat x; COULDN'T NEST; moved back to bottom; save
added duplicate of CAT X; save
tried to get 9 posts under second cat X; very unstable (menu jumping
mysteriously)


Second Test
Second menu with CAT X and 9 post children saves perfectly

Christine

Build 3.0-RC1
Removed all menus & again had the failure to save subsequent changes after
adding the 24th item.
Could this be a timing issue? I'm working on a local version of the website.

Also, menu items are not included in the export function. Should they be?
Thanks,
Christine

Build 14960
I removed all my menus & it worked beautifully for the first 20 items.

21st was somewhat shaky (I couldn't get it to be a grandchild lvl; it would
only go in as parent.) Finally added another item above the item I was
interested in and I was able to get it in the right spot.

Continued adding (total 36 items)with menu being fussier than first 20 but
everything was good. (should have stopped while I was ahead.)

I decided to replace a custom menu item with a category menu item with the
same label. (child position with grandchildren(posts))
Created category by renaming an existing category & changing the slug to
match new name.
(This seemed to work everywhere I looked.)

Added newly edited category menu item above custom menu item with same label
and with the same indent (child).

Saved. (I think)

Removed custom menu item expecting all grandchildren posts to reposition
under new child post. Instead all grandchildren jumped to the end of the
menu & now menu item moves don't save.


Also - if I remove all menus, should the menu item counter reset?
Regards,
Christine

Christine,
We've noticed a bug in the hierarchy that occurs when you're using the link
to the Home page somewhere in your menu (under certain conditions). Think
you could try to break it again, but avoid the home link? (We'll probably
have that bug fixed by tonight's nightly.)
