Hello,

I have added a menu item in the drupal. But it is not either displayed in the menu or in the menu item list. What can be the reason.

With regards,
Baburaj

There is not enough information in your post to be sure what the problem is. The two mays to add menu items are through the menu module and as part of another module.

If you added the menu item through the menu module did you add it to the existing navigation menu or to a new custom menu? In the later case you need to enable the block (administer -> blocks) for the menu (and menu iitem) to be visible.

If you add the menu item as part of another module the possibilities are more varied. If you added the menu item after installing the module and the menu item is cached goto administer -> menu (this assumes you have the menu module enabled) and the menu item should be visible. If not, I would suggest posting the code that adds the menu item for other suggestions.

Hello,

Some of the menu items are visible. When I add a menu item. It is shown as blocked. How can I unblock a menu item.

Hi,

I had the same problem. The cause in my case was that the drupal path I gave the menu item was incorrect. Maybe that's what's wrong in your case, too. Double-check that the menu item is pointing to an existing page within your drupal site.

See link:

to view the problem. Gallery is listed as a menu item in the administer>menu work area but not in the Navigation sidebar. This is a brand new installation (repeated several times).
This is a major problem - I had a working site until I upgraded to 4.6! Any clues (other than try to go back to 4.5)?

P.S. This is just a problem in 4.6.6. Reverted to 4.6.5 and problem disappeared!

There is a patch you can download that fixes this problem in 4.6.6. See bug reports.

I use pushbutton and add menu items in Navigation menu and it doesn't show up. Also, when I make a new menu and enable it in Blocks section and then want to add menu items there in doesn't show, either. It is the case with pushbutton theme. For example, in Fancy theme it works fine.

Is there some patch for this and where can I download it?

I am experiencing the same thing noted but I am new to these kinds of modifications and I do not know how to apply the patch. Would someone offer how-to or point me to an instructions for applying a patch?

Odd thing here, my vanilla test side Drupal (same v4.6.6) has no problem when adding to Navigation menu or a custom menu. Works perfectly. But my modified version has the problem of no new items showing up in the menus via Add Menu Item. I fear I may have broken something by adding a custom module but I would like to try with the patch installed. I just don't know how to install a patch. :(

Thanks for any help.

Bob

UPDATE: I found the answer by doing a forum search for: how to patch

Reading through various notes provided the info and all is well, the custom added menus now appear. It remains interesting to me that the vanilla installation of v4.6.6 works okay for adding menu items to the Navigation block but my under construction site did not (until I applied the patch). So I'm thinking that one of the module additions I installed may have conflicted, I don't know. But it's all working now and I'll investigate the module additions on my test site one by one to see if any one results in ability to add menu items.
