 * I have added 5 buttons. The first 4 buttons I was able to save my changes. On
   the 5th button I cannot save the URL nor any other change. I tried to deactivate
   and reactivate, but that did not work.
 * Please advise.

 * Do you get any errors? Could you post a screenshot of the button that you can’t
   edit?
 * I assume you are using the newest version and didn’t upgrade from a previous 
   version? ( Or the problem is not related to old buttons ) .

 * I get no errors. This is the first time I am using this plugin. I downloaded 
   the latest version. All new buttons
 * I posted my screen shot here:

   you created?

 * The URL is [http://www.coceventscenter.com](http://www.coceventscenter.com)\hope-
   for-life_about
 * However, event I just put any text in the URL field it will not stay. I added
   another button and the same thing happened.

 * Did you install any plugins or changed anything between adding of the two buttons?
 * I got another report with the same issue and it seems that the plugin can’t write
   to the database, that’s why it’s not saving things. The problem is that I’m not
   sure what is causing it.
 * Could you get me the MYSQL version of your installation? It’s listed under support
   in the plugin menu. Then you go down to the textarea where there is all sorts
   of information (PHP versions etc ) .

 * Very strange. I’ve been testing yesterday after your report and waiting another
   bug report ( the reason why I was silent, sorry ), even installed a bunch of 
   other mysql and apache versions but I can’t replicate it as well.
 * Let me know when you have problems again.

 * Ah to add, the only way I can replicate the behavior is when the database user(
   the one in wordpress config ) doesn’t have the correct permissions on the database
   to insert and update data in the database.
 * It’s very unlikely though since that would also mean it’s impossible to add posts
   or pages to WordPress (and a lot more problems ).
