Adding simple menu item - x-theme hanging forever/stuck/not working

Image says it all. trying to add simple page to my main menu. Hanging for ever refusing to work.

Cleared cache/everything, relogged in, little to no plugins on. Added a menu item 30 mins ago and it worked fine. Is there some sort of hidden menu item limit? Why is this not working?

Would love to get through at least one session working with x-theme without some simple, but crucial element not working that undermines the entire previous hours of work.

Sigh…

Disabling every single plugin on the site and now its working.

Sigh… the wordpress eco-system and tools such as x-theme these really should be at a much reduced cost or include real-time support. It is not stable enough as an ecosystem and the potential for unexplainable error is so huge. Like every time you do anything. The amount of conflicts created when adding anything even simple things like a contact form - which result in catastophic breaks of your website and much hand wringing.

Invaribaly the “solution” is to disable all plugins. But then the system sometimes “works” with such plugins. Many times its an error with the theme itself, or possibly some hosting issue.

The promise of a smoothly running cms and website experience (which is what we pay for) never occurs. Even if it isnt a plugin issue, cornerstone/x-theme itself is guaranteed to hang/fail during a session which only a cahce clear/reboot seems to fix.

anyway - for others who get this issue - this is another “disable all plugins” and this will “solve” your issue, type issue.

Hi @Scott2Hotty,

I totally understand your frustration and will not argue. Just to clarify few things:

1- WordPress is a big ecosystem with lots of possible 3rd party plugins that might cause conflicts. You need to be careful to choose the valid ones.
2- Our theme does not have any problems regarding the case you mentioned and complained. If you want to check if the theme is causing the issue or not, there is a simple test. You can change the theme to default WordPress theme and see if the problem persists. If yes it is not related to the theme, if no then it might be a problem of the theme and we urge you to open up a support thread to follow up.

Thank you.
