When I edit the setting for an existing newsletter (admin/config/services/simplenews/categories/15/edit), the VID of the category term resets to 0. For me the proper VID should be 7. This causes the category to be non-selectable when creating a newsletter. How can we stop the VID from changing?

Did you maybe rename the machine name or something like that? We don't use the vid, we work with the machine name (which has to be "newsletter")

This site has been upgraded from Drupal 5>6>7, so maybe the machine name has changed over time. The current machine name is "vocabulary_7" but the visible name is "Newsletter". l switched the machine name to "newsletter" and it works now. Thanks for your help.
