Hi,
I am trying to test the feasibility of migrating my sites from drupal 9 to backdrop because I am in a shared environment and it becomes difficult with "composer".
I'm trying to create a simple menu block but I can't do it, it doesn't accept any of my entries .. apparently it works like autocompletion area and i can't put an external url or an admininistrave one like node/add/mycontenttype .. i guess something i did not understood about backdrop's menus .. an idea ? Thanks
It looks like you've got Select2 installed and you'll need to disable Select2 for autocomplete fields, at least until this issue is resolved:
Ha thanks; yes, now i can put date on path area now, but still a problem with title i can't record the link ..
It looks like you've got another module that's not in core. What is providing the "link" or "view" option? Maybe it's hiding the title field.
That looks like Menu Views:
I think I'm using that on at least one site. I'll try to look it up and see if I have any issues there.
Which version of Menu Views are you using?
yes it was men_view 1.x-1.0.0-beta i deactivate it and i have the link again ...
Thanks for finding the guilty module
There is a newer version of that module in case you want to try again -- I've asked as to why the project installer is serving the old version so that should be updated soon. Here's the new version:
same problem with this new version : no title
Can you provide a list of all modules you have installed? Maybe there's a conflict.
yes but i don't know how to do that; i have 21 pages of hard-copy .. is these a means to send a zip file ?
Do you know how to do a directory listing or screenshot of the [webroot]/modules directory?
yes with filezilla, more compact and less images
Wow, that's a lot of modules. :)
How about this: on the Functionality page (admin/modules), if you type "menu" into the filter, which modules show up as activated?

The last version of select2 seems to work without effect on link adding ..
Hello @philippeg 👋
From the last screenshot you've provided, it seems that you are using https://github.com/backdrop-contrib/menu_views but the "Menu link title" field seems to be missing from the form. Here's how that form should look like:
@laryn is the maintainer of the Backdrop version of both of these modules, so he can help 😉
...having said that, I have tried a fresh installation of Backdrop, with both of these modules installed, but I was not able to reproduce the problem (the "Menu link title" field is shown for me). Perhaps there is another module that is causing the problem, so can you try uninstalling any other menu-related modules and see if that fixes things? If you figure out which module is causing the issue, please remember to reply here and let us know.
Thanks
