> Which menu are you trying to edit? If you look on the Admin/Modules page (tiki-admin_modules.php), you can see which menu is active, probably set to display in the left column near the top. If the menu indicated there is "mnu_application_menu", you won't be able to edit it, as the items are hardcoded in a template file. Deactivate that menu and activate "application_menu" (menu ID=42) instead. You can edit this one on the Admin/Menus page (tiki-admin_menus.php). (If I have these two menus reversed, somebody please let me know. I saw one post that had them the other way around, but I was able to edit "application_menu" — menu ID 42, so I think this is correct.)

Basically making a link in an existing page, saving the page, and clicking on the question mark at that link will put you on the edit page for the new page. Or use the URL "tiki-editpage.php?page=" with your new page name appended, or activate the "Quick edit wiki page" module for admin (you).

Did check on the Admin/Modules page (tiki-admin_modules.php) that, listed under Assigned Modules, the menu in the side column is not mnu_application_menu?
