I create a new app. I make a simple menu as the home screen, I open its properties and create a listing, that will be another simple menu plugin and adds it just fine. It creates the new menu screen, if I go to that new screens properties, I am unable to modify, or actually save the modifications, I get the error listed below. I then go back to the properties for the home screen menu and remove the second menu from its list (not delete the screen, just the link to it in the home screen menu). I can then go back to the second menu screen and modify and save all day long. Reverse the process (add the second menu to the first menu) and I can no longer modify the second menu. I get the error {"result":"error", "errors":"nickname already in use, no duplicates allowed"} The strange thing is that it does not do this with every single screen I add, just 2 of the plugins I have tried so far, Menu_Simple and Custom_URL. The Custom_HTML works just fine, when it has a link on a menu that leads to it. That is the only other one I have tried. Anyone have any ideas? This is after an upgrade from, I think a 2.1.6 system to the current downloadable 3.0.0, it says it is running all current version plugins (after updating).

Also, none of the screens share the same name? Comments If it is a plugin problem, go to the Plugin Admin Panel and press refresh in there about 3 times... it's a bit odd for me sometimes.

New setup is a completely clean install into a new SQL database and folder location. I have it all setup from the download only and then I got the plugins (pulled from control panel). I still get the same issue. Could it be an SQL version issue, I think the one I have is a couple/few years old now :-( ? Have the SQL requirements changed in the last 2-3 years?

Easiest workaround is to just change the nickname (I've just been adding a 1 to the end of the name) when you make the other change then hit save.
