 * Suddenly, when adding new page links to Max Mega Menu then clicking “Save Menu”
   results in an error:
 * “This site can’t be reached”.
 * The resulting URL is: [http://juvenilecourt.nashville.gov/wp-admin/nav-menus.php?action=edit&menu=3](http://juvenilecourt.nashville.gov/wp-admin/nav-menus.php?action=edit&menu=3)

 * Hi cwolff,
 * I think this will be a server related issue, either you’re going over the max_input_vars
   limit or possibly some server security is blocking the request. It may be worth
   trying to increase your max_input_vars setting first: [https://www.megamenu.com/documentation/menu-item-limit/](https://www.megamenu.com/documentation/menu-item-limit/)
 * Please can you try disabling MMM and seeing if you are able to save the menu?
 * Regards,
    Tom

 * Thank You.
 * Increasing the max_input_vars and disabling MMM did not fix the issue, so obviously
   this is not related to your plugin.

 * Hi cwolff,
 * Thanks for trying that.
 * MMM doesn’t do anything when you hit the “Save menu” button (partly because it
   doesn’t need to, but mostly so we don’t interfere with the complex menu saving
   process – we leave core WordPress to handle that process on it’s own).
 * There doesn’t seem to be a definitive answer to this issue, but there are some
   suggestions/things to try on these threads:

 * I seem to remember once the issue was mod_security related, so it may be worth
   asking your host to investigate.
 * If you do find a solution please post it back here and it may help someone with
   the same issue in the future (I’d also be interested to know what caused it!).
 * Regards,
    Tom
