• I just installed 3.4.1 across multiple sites, each using different themes and plugins. I just experienced the following 2 issues across two sites.

    1. When adding a new menu item on one site the new item showed up as (Pending). When I saved with the Pending on the first site it wiped out the entire menu. Leaving only one menu item. When I tested on the second site it said (Pending) as well. I did not try to save since I did not want to blow away the other sites menu as well.

    2. When trying to change the categories of posts they are not saving. The current categories stick no matter what options I choose and save.

    Is anyone else experiencing these issues? I am going to check across other sites and will report if these issues is applicable across all.

    Noteworthy: I used bluehost simple-scripts tool to upgrade as well as manually upgraded using the wordpress built in upgrade function.

    Yes, these two issues are repeatable across all installations of wordpress on this version. I appreciate any information regarding these two bugs that anyone can provide. In the meantime I will warn all of my site owners.

    Thank you. I am amazingly happy that someone else is having the exact same problem as me.

    I am right there with you. It’s weird because I upgraded to 3.4.1 a while ago I believe. Not today and not yesterday. My 2 websites were running just fine but now I am literally having the exact same problems as you!

    If you go to PrimalSmoothies.com or PrimalToad.com you will notice that I have nothing on the sidebar for one site and just one thing on the other of which I did not place there.

    I thought maybe someone hacked into my account but I can breathe a little.

    Do you think the problem would be resolved if we installed an earlier version?

    I just started having problems about 3 hours ago. I just don’t get it. I think others are too. Something happened today.

    I just restored my site to a saved copy of v3.2.2 and tested both issues. They were both there. I tried upgrading to v4. Same issue still there. I am not sure if this is saying that the issue has been around for a while but I never noticed or that something is corrupt.

    I have found a year old posts regarding the (pending) menu item issue. They seem to point to a corrupt db. I browsed my DB, specifically the postmeta table which was identified as corrupt in the older post and found no issue.

    PT, glad to hear we are not alone. Hopefully we get a torrent of these confirmation posts so the issue can get fixed asap!

    Why is this very repeatable widespread issue getting zero attention?

    I take it back. I just went back to re-verify that the issue was still there and everything is working now. Is it safe to deduce that the issue was on the host and not wordpress? I am scratching my head.

    Glad things are back to normal!
