Gantry menus breaking Wordpress menu item order

  • Gantry menus breaking Wordpress menu item order

    • I'm having major issues with the Gantry 5 menu manager. As soon as I changed a name of one of the top-level menu items, the items disappeared and others reordered themselves. In Appearance -> Menu, nothing has changed, but the order is no longer reflected in the front end. Nothing I try to change stays set.

      This is a serious issue that I can't figure out, and it has brought down our site.

      Please help.

    • Thanks for the prompt reply. I had to restore the site from a backup just to get it back online. Right now, I'm trying to make the changes to the site on my staging server, and so far so good, but there's a lot of confusion over which menu editor to use when making major changes to the site like this. The process is anything but intuitive. I'm otherwise a big fan of Gantry 5, and I use it mostly in my Joomla deployments, but describing the Gantry overrides of the Joomla and Wordpress system is very confusing to clients. If I have another problem, I'll check back.

    • Yes, it's still doing it. As soon as I try to reorder the menu in Gantry, it breaks things.

    • Thanks for looking. The problem is that as soon as I make changes to the menu using Wordpress, some menu items completely disappear in Gantry.

    • Yes, that's correct.

      I'm kind of under the gun with this right now. When I played with it before, I was having some success duplicating the menu -- starting from scratch -- and then applying that. While I wait for a solution, I'm going to try that again.
