Is there a good reason why the option not to display a vocabulary name in the menu went away between 4.4 and 4.5?
Looks like the feature simply disappeared from the code between version 1.7 and 1.8 of the module, without any comment or explanation. Bug or feature?

I have a single taxonomy vocabulary for navigation and having to open the vocabulary every single in the menu is mightily annoying, so I am leaning towards bug...

In 4.5 you can hide the vocabulary name right from the main menu administration screen, so the module no longer needs a setting for this.

OK, I hadn't enabled the menu module (shame on me). It is nice. But.
Two questions:

1) Small usability issue: is there an easier way to disable a vocabulary than to:
a) disable the vocabulary through the menu admin page
b) edit each and every first level term to make them children of the navigation root

2) Bug?
If I disable a vocabulary in the menu admin page, instead of being marked disabled it goes into its separate box at the bottom of the page (and that's fine by me, easier on the eye). But that box sorely lacks an enable link. There is an edit link, but clicking it brings up a page that only let's me change the title, without all the extra "menu admin" options of reparenting, changing the weight, etc that were present before I disabled. The only way to re-enable the vocabulary is to reset all menus, which is fine right now (I am just road testing 4.5) but might get painful on an older, fully customized site navigation.

Just following up on myself to change the status (submitted too fast, obviously).

Unless it causes major technical problems, the three items that are the basic configuration options in pre-4.5 taxonomy_menu 'should' still be there. Or make taxonomy_menu part of Drupal and move it all to Menus which might make more sense.

I am still struggling to understand exactly how the Menus admin tool functions.

Just my .02 worth that having the other two configuration items on the tax menu module settings page and not having any indication where to further configure settings needs some clarification. If I knew how it worked I'd suggest the wording but I have to go figure it out myself right now...

Title: Option not to display a vocabulary name gone from 4.5 » editing taxonomy menu creates new menu instead

when I go to admin->menu and then try to edit my taxonomy_menu, the changes don't seem to affect that menu item. In my case, it takes me to a url ending in "admin/menu/item/edit/-109" what's with the -109? when I make changes to the title, and path, instead of the changes getting applied to the menu item I was trying to edit, a new menu item gets added with that title and path.

The bug preventing you from using the menu admin to do this has been corrected. May or may not require menu reset to see the change.
