    Hi All,

    The cause of my problem with not being able to add new Nav Menu items via Appearance -> Menus was a corrupt WordPress database table (x2).

    The corrupt tables were the wp_posts and wp_posts_meta and were missing the unique identifier and also no AUTO INCREMENT set for the ID field.

    Now to fix this took some more work as with the Unique identifier not being set, the cPanel PHPMyAdmin is not able to edit the tables.

    I could not add the unique identifier as the tables had duplicate entries for the default WordPress field for unique identifiers for each table in question.

    So I needed to export the tables in question, remove the duplicate fields, rename the original tables so I could import the modified tables.

    Once I imported the modified tables (with the duplicate ID entries removed), I was then able to add  the Unique Identifier to the required field and add the AUTO INCREMENT attribute for the ID.

    Problem solved… easy hey….. not.

    Hi George,

    Thank you for the suggestion, I tried it but it did not work.
    It is a difficult one as even disabling all plugins and going to WP 2020 theme the issue is still present, I cannot add new menu items.

    Hi,
    Found the issue, I had the plugin update set to ‘default’ instead of ‘enabled’, now working fine thank you.

    Hi Ronald,
    My wp-config is just generic.
    Since I have installed the ‘Easy Updates Manager’ plugin only plugin updates have come out and not any WordPress core update so I cannot comment on that.
    I can provide you the url via private PM if that helps.
    Thanks

    Hi Matthew,
    I have my own VPS and running PHP 5.6.
    Issue is the same on both Genesis theme framework and Artbees Jupiter theme.

    Hi Matthew,
    Thanks for your quick response,
    As per my original post, yes I did disable all my plugins except for the Easy Updates Manager and it did not resolve my issue.
