Categories and Menu problems after move

Hi Fellow Bloggers,

I’m having a couple of problems that I hope you can help me solve. I recently moved my site from a subdomain back to a domain. It was in the same hosting acct (read: directory) and I followed these instructions. All seemed to be working fine until I started adding posts and assigning categories to them. Also, I began having problems where I could not modify the ‘menu’ by deleting items in it’s listing. So, in a few words:

1). Categories assigned to a post cannot be changed (unchecked)
2). Menu items cannot be removed (deleted) from the menu.

While I do have some child categories, the default category is set to be assigned for each post. I’m unable to reassign or remove it from the post using an ‘update’. Immediately after the update, it shows that it has reverted to the checked ‘uncategorized’ category.

If I try to assign (check) a child category to it, then update it, immediately after the update, the child category heirarchy has been changed, moved near the top of the category list as a ‘parent’ equivalent category and removed itself as a child from the original parent category.

Similarly, when I try to change menu items, I’m unable to delete them. For example: I open the item, choose remove, the item then disappears from the listing, then I select ‘save menu’, the menu listing refreshes, and the item reappears in the listing.

I’ve also tried to remove the main menu and create another menu (although not in that order) I created a new menu, and was not able to delete the old menu. Nor am I able to delete an item from the new menu. What gives?

So far, I’ve disabled all plug-ins, yet the problems persists. These problems did seem to appear once I’d upgraded to 3.01. Yet, I’m not sure they weren’t already there or what has caused them. Perhaps you’ve run into this before?

Thanks,
Klatuu
