 * I’ve reviewed a few posts on this issue, but these posts do not follow the same
   issue I’m having.
 * Moments after we saved a new menu we received a message ‘Please enter a valid
   menu name.’ No matter what we’ve done (turn off plugins, try older themes, etc.)
   nothing worked.
 * We’re running a WP Network Admin with roughly 30 active themes. Each theme has
   roughly 10 pages and just under 40mgs in size.
 * Any advice would be greatly appreciated

 * Hi
 * Increase your max_input_vars in your php.ini (or ask your host to help increase
   the PHP request and post limits)
 * Let me know if that works for you.
 * All the best!
