Saving a form in a menu status goes to Thrashed

JoCo 25d ago

Dear Max,

I notice a strange behavior.

When I try to save a form under a menu item  the status of the form automatically jumps to Thrashed.

How come?

regards JoCo

Hi JoCo

You mean the status of the menuitem ?

Because the forms do not have a Thrashed status

Hella Max,

I did several test also with a form of V7.

Then I did a test with an article. There it also happened. So I think it is not chronoforms but the problem lies with Joomla.

A soon as I save an menu-item the status change to thrashed.

Hi JoCo

Thank you for posting about this finding, but I'm not sure why this may be happening.

Yes Max, i find out.

The database table Menu contains at the top an item named "Menu_Item_Root"

That item had the value -2 (=Thrased). After i changed that value in 1 (=Published)  everything functioned again.

How that change in -2, I don't know.

I found that solution in the Joomla forum.

Great, glad you found it.

Maybe you had the menu itself trashed.
