What a great idea...Thanks!

Just installed it....a couple of quick questions:

- Even though I grant views permission to only authenticated users..it's still visible on the nav menu for anonymous users.

- When the view is deleted it still shows on Nav menu (just a comment...I then disabled it at the menu level)

thanks!

I've confirmed this (and reclassified it) as a bug in the code. I disagree with Mr. Beechey that this is just a support issue: SimpleViews creates a menu that *can't* be deleted.

It's easy to reproduce:

1) Create a SimpleView.
2) Delete it
3) Menu item (in Navigation menu) remains. Can't be deleted through SimpleViews, Views, or /admin/build/menu.

Good luck!

Title: Menu/Access » Menus created by SimpleViews don't disappear, can't be deleted

Changed title to be clearer.

The problem is that the menu cache is not getting cleared and rebuilt. It would be preferable if the code were fixed to do that. A workaround which may help some folks: after deleting a simple view, go to the modules page. That will clear the cache, making the menu item for the deleted view disappear.

The attached patch should fix this.

In the meantime, another workaround: creating a new simple view clears the menu cache which should get rid of menu items for previously deleted simple views.
