A guess: If you’re running a global search & replace on the database to replace the staging site URL with the production URL, it could corrupt the serialized data stored in that option. This can happen due to the way PHP serializes strings – it stores both the string itself and also its length. If you change the serialized string without updating the length, PHP won’t be able to parse it.

Thank you for making this plugin! I use it for all my sites. One issue I thought you should be aware of is that when moving my WP database from a staging server to a live server, my menu customizations are lost. Do you know why this could be the case?

Thanks!

For some reason my editor roles cannot see the visual editor when creating posts.
( html & Visual view ) when i deactivate the Menu Editor, it works…

Hope this is a common issue, and easy to fix?

I was removing the plugin via ftp since i couldn’t access the plugin page. I was able to deactivate and delete the plugin from the admin and reinstall it. Seems to be back to normal again.

I tried uninstalling the plugin and as expected all the default menu items were visible. But when I reinstall the plugin the same settings I set up in the plugin become active again… in this case hiding the settings menu. When I try to manually access the settings page I get a wordpress error saying I do not have permission to access the page. I am signed in as the Admin… I’m not sure what to do… I’d like to re-install the plugin without it remembering my mistake. lol!

Thanks in advance!

Note that the menu entry for the plugin will only show up when viewing a site-specific dashboards, not Network Admin -> Dashboard. Yes, this is somewhat counter-intuitive.
