    I am having a weird problem when adding ANY additional pages to the Secondary Navigation Menu.
    When I try to add a page, the whole Secondary Navigation Menu disappears from the website and is NO longer selected in the Menu/Manage Locations area of the dashboard.
    The only way to get it back is to manually select it again from the Mange Locations drop down.

    Thank You

    I had a look, I can't offer a solution without logging in. I only offer on-site maintenance for a fee! Get me some more details - like add a page and then take a screenshot of the source code and I'll look at it again.

    Hi @stevebhq

    You've reached a common limit for the number of WordPress menu items. Please see more here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/menu-size-limit

    Solutions on that page may involve adjusting server settings via your webhost. You can also evaluate using another method to build your menus other than the default WordPress menu editor. Best first step is to reassess your information presentation and menu structure(s).

    The UberMenu plugin (may be uberkill for your needs) can handle much larger numbers of menu items plus a whole lot more. It gives you many more options for organizing and automating your information. The main menu on the site linked in the footer below is built with UberMenu and other plugins using zero maintenance when adding posts with structured categories. (other than rare plugin updates). Item count is user choice.

    The menu on this site is built with a smaller overall menu item count but more complex categorization. Four menu levels, again driven by categories, again zero maintenance to make new categorized posts land properly in the menu structure. Using the Add Descendants As Submenu Items plugin:
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/add-descendants-as-submenu-items/


    Choose your next site design from over 350 Genesis themes.
