 * There are many posts/responses and such on this topic and not many work-arounds
   or fixes (many topics closed) so this will addresses this _**glaring**_ issue
   many of us have with WordPress not making new menus, provided the theme supports
   2+ menus at once.
 * -Open .htaccess and add this to your first line:
    “php_value max_input_vars 2000”-
   Delete your menus and create a new one -Copy the URL during the ‘Create Menu’-
   Make your menu -Save the menu -Paste the previous URL into the URL -Change the
   number on the end:
 * (ex: [http://mysiteDOTcom/wp-admin/nav-menus.php?action=edit&menu=7](http://mysiteDOTcom/wp-admin/nav-menus.php?action=edit&menu=7)
   When you create a new menu and save it, there will be a positive number like 
   3, 6, or even 7)
 * -After changing the LAST digit/number, and hitting enter in the url, set up a
   SECOND menu and save it with a different name.
    -Go to Menu Locations and set
   your new menus. -Save changes. -Pat yourself on the back 🙂
