 * Hi,
 * Forgive me if it’s a user error but it seems to me that custom posts that are
   in 2 categories won’t show in both but only one submenu item. Scenario;
 * Custom post type: **Support**
    Custom post: **A new support request** Custom 
   post categories: Cat A, Cat B
 * Now, if I have a top level menu item as ‘Support’ and within submenu items as
   Cat A, Cat B, the post ‘A new support request’ only shows in Cat A and not in
   Cat B.
 * Settings for submenu;
 * label: …
    create submenu containing links: checked Number of posts: -1 Skip posts:
   0 Order by: … Order: … Remove original menu item: … Subtaxonomy posts: Include
   Post nav label: %post_title
 * Would be glad for any help. Capable of development if needed – just point me 
   to the right direction / file.

 * + I think I just found out what the issue is…
 * I just realised there is a ‘Make Primary’ button on the post it self which is
   a functionality added by Yoast! which you cannot uncheck… See image.

 * Hi General,
 * That option is new to me, I haven’t seen it before. I think it would be best 
   to ask Yoast support how to disable that feature (or check if it’s possible to
   disable it in the Yoast settings).
 * Regards,
    Tom

 * Hi Tom,
 * I have disabled that feature – no difference. Also, should of edited my initial
   post – Category Posts in Custom Menu plugin is also being used.
 * I think this has something to do with max_input_vars – haven’t counted the menu
   items but rough estimate; there are about 100 items. If I remove one item – the
   other one shows.
 * I have increased the max_input_vars via htaccess, php.ini from 1k to 10, 20, 
   50 – still making no difference.
 * I’ve hit a dead end. Kind of embarrassing too as it is hard to explain to client.
