“Add To Menu” not working

  • Hello guys,

    I have a fresh install of wp 4.9.7 here. The add page or links to menu in Appearance > Menus is not working. When I select any page and click on add to menu button it’s having a loading small icon right beside it and after a second it didn’t just add the pages or menu links to the menu. It’s happening all over my hosting accounts. I have a google compute engine vps running on centos 7 and installed Sentora as the web host manager.

    Steps that I already tried:
    -Disabled and deleted all the plugins
    -Switched to default theme (as it was in already with the fresh install)
    -Changed the browser to firefox, edge, opera, chrome
    -deleted my dns cache.
    -deleted my pc and browser cache.
    -tried on a different pc on a different network.

    I don’t think it’s it’s a bug of the wp scripts but something wrong with my web server config.

    P.S When I go to customize and customize the site in realtime I can add menus from there but not from the Appearance > Menus

    If anyone can guide me to solve the issue would be helpful.
    Thanks in advance.

    Is there a console error by chance?

    Have you tried setting the CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS to true in your wp-config?

    
define( 'CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', true );

    Hello Jose,
    Thank you so much for your reply.

    I just updated my wp-config.php with the line of code that you gave me define( 'CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', true );

    Still doesn’t works!!

    It doesn’t give me any error. But still I can not add my pages to the Menus.

    Here is the video link that I did with screen recorder

    When you are on the menu screen, open your developer tools. Most browsers use the F12 key for that. There is a tab called Console. Is there anything in there?

    @yush91: First off, you’ll want to remove that admin account you made immediately. Many people have likely already seen it.

    Second, please do not offer to give access to other users. Anyone who accepted an offer like that would be facing serious consequences.

    Alright! I have deleted the account. And I don’t see any erros on the console. So what would be the solution in my case.

    @jcastaneda This is weird! The thing which is bugging me if I can add the pages to menus from the Live customize then why can’t I do that on the Appearance > Menus ? But I can remove the items from the menu from there!!!!!!!

    Please see this screen recorded video.

    Do you have access to server error logs? If so, check them out and see if there’s something akin to Mod Security causing this…

    Hello,

    I encounter exactly the same problem on a WordPress 4.9.8 (multisite).

    I have the same bug as in the @ yush91 video.

    I have no log on the server and no error with WordPress logs.

    Only one thing I noticed is that this problem only arises when the content of my page exceeds about 2300 characters …

    I have already done several wordpress (multisite or not) with much larger content without encountering any problem.

    Another thing, adding menu works from the menu Appearance > Customize…

    An idea can be?

    Thank you

    Nobody can help me ?

    Did you get a fix for this? Its started happening to me today.

    Hello,

    I added
    php_value post_max_size 20M
    or
    php_value max_input_vars 10000
    in the .htaccess of WordPress!

    Try one or the other, or both, I’m not sure

    I have same issue, Anyone please tell me the solution.Thanks

    Hi
    The solution that worked for me was
    increase the PHP memory limit and also commented below code in the .htaccess of file lansinoh.co.uk.
    ========
    ## SetEnv DEFAULT_PHP_VERSION 7
    =======

    Hey, did anyone find a solution?

    I tried updating my php.ini with the following
    post_max_size 20M
    and
    max_input_vars 10000
    But it didn’t work
