STACK OVERLOAD ISSUE WITH WORDPRESS MENUS

What exactly is a STACK OVERFLOW?

It seems to be when you have too many items in your menu bars and this is exactly what happened to me.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU HAVE A STACK OVERFLOW?

You cannot add posts to your menus. When I tried to add two posts to my Main Menu bar, they were automatically deleted and the other became a custom link

If you have access to a CPanel with your host, here is how to proceed.

A FIX TO THE WORDPRESS STACK OVERLOAD

1 - Go to your Cpanel and look for your « FILE MANAGER » icon, then select.

2 - Make sure « WEB ROOT » is selected, and your proper url. Press on « Go »

3 - Your file manager will then open a window and you need to search for the « PHP.INI » file and hit the « EDIT » icon that should be at the top of your screen.

4 - Select edit and it will open a new window.

5 - Look for: ;max_input_vars = 1000

6 - Remove the ; in front of max and replace the 1000 by 5000

7 - Hit « SAVE » and you are done, this résolves the issue.
