Hi,

I’m making new web site with the Catch Responsive theme and I found interesting problem from it.

1) Secondary menu is not working as it should. When clicking links in the secondary menu, the browser opens the pages in new tabs. One click, one new tab. That is not how it should be. I have not put that possible in the menu options. Last time I was doing the menus, before I had 1-2 months break, it worked as it should have. Primary menu seems to work as it should. The pages opens in the same window. A bug? How to fix?

2) I have very many pages in my web site and they need to be organized well. It seems that time to time the whole menu editing tool stops working on wrong time. I’ve got few times an error when I’ve had a huge secondary menu tree and when saving the menu settings, there comes just huge error list on my admin panel. Basically the whole menu is gone. As far as I can see, there is no way of returning the lost job at that point. The problem have occurred only while saving the menu.

3) Is it possible to have an arrow or another clear sign to the menus which shows sub menus? It would make the menu usage much easier if able to see where is sub menus and where is not sub menus.

@Mantu2:
1. Can you post in your site URL so that I can check in your secondary menu.
2. What is the type of error. Can you send me screenshot or the error message.
3. Not sure about this, I need to look at it.

Here you go:

2) Don’t remember the error by it’s name. I haven’t yet put the menu to biggest possible size. And that is the point when the problems have occured. Is there any log file to have a look?

3) Ok, thanks.

@Mantu2:”
1. It’s not menu issue. I see that you have checked in “Open link in new window/tab”. See this screenshot https://www.pinterest.com/pin/548594798337320151/. So, go to “Appearance => Menus” and edit your menu elements

2. No, there will not be log. If you have enable log in server then it will have. So, capture the error when you get it.

3. You can add the following css:
```
.nav-primary li> a:after {
    color: #ccc;
    content: ' ▾';
}
.nav-secondary li> a:after {
    color: #444;
    content: ' ▾';
}
.nav-primary li> a:only-child:after,
.nav-secondary li> a:only-child:after {
    content: '';
}
```

1. I looked very carefully my menus. I could not find anything wrong. I had no checks on “open link in new windows”. I fixed few check-boxes as it was in the picture you sent (screen options). I emptied my browsers’ cache. Now it works. Funny.

2) Ok. I’ll contact you again when needed. I hope I’m able to do the menus during this week -> if I’m having some errors, they should occur soon.

3) Thanks. This worked perfectly 🙂

@Mantu2: Yes, if you have cache plugin installed then you will have cache issue. So, for that after you make any changes, you need to clear your cache.

Hello catchthemes,
unfortunately I just had the same problem with building a secondary menu with about 90 items – after saving the menu about 10 or 15 items were “snipped off” at the end. I just updated to CatchPro today, hope there will be a fix next week. Thank you!

@Andreas: Sorry, which theme are you using. Please post in your site URL and also can you explain what happen when you save 90 items. Any error message.

Hello Sakin, I use Catch Base Pro (sorry about the wrong “CatchPro”), ther was absolutely no error message, and it happened again after I rebuilt the menu. There are exactly 91 pages at the moment, I am trying to design a static website for a public school in Germnany. (Works really great with the slider images on the start page, that was the main reason for my decision!) I used the “menu”-section of “Dashboard”, where you add the menu items by checking them in the small box on the upper left side of the window. No idea how to send a screen shot within this blog… the site is not public until now, because of that no URL, sorry… Best regards Andreas

@Andreas: I check in this issue more in WordPress and found that it’s issue in your server and not in theme. Menu is controlled by WordPress Core and your server. So, ask your Website Hosting server to fix it. You can show this link https://wordpress.org/support/topic/menus-limit-to-90-items-in-database

If it’s localhost, then you need to configure your php.ini file

@jazzchino: It’s displaying fine in my side. Can you refresh your browser and check in. I see that you have WP-Super-Cache plugin install and it might be cache it. Also go to your WP Super Cache plugin settings and empty cache.
