The error message I get is the following: * Updating translations for Nav Menu Roles (de_DE)… * The package could not be installed. PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10) : Unable to find End of Central Dir Record signature * I uninstalled the plugin, did a new install from the plugins, as well as downloading the plugin and uploading the unzipped files. * Nav Menu Roles are working nicely, but still keep getting this nagging message. The same still happens after updating to Version 1.8.6 * hopefully this glitch can somehow get fixed as this is an excellent plugin 🙂 Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 17 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pedstone/replies/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pedstone/replies/page/2/?output_format=md)
