I tested using the menus page in both dashboards, and everything worked as expected in my tests.
margaretdahdah, could you please let me know if you are using the Menus in the new dashboard or the WP Admin dashboard?
The new one is here:
https://wordpress.com/menus/dinepixtravel.wordpress.comThe WP Admin one is here:
https://dinepixtravel.wordpress.com/wp-admin/nav-menus.phpCan you let me know if one of those works for you while the other doesn’t and which one is which?
If you are using a different URL to edit your menus, can you let me know the URL?

Sorry for not responding right away , I’m not on the computer throughout the day, as much as i would like to! I’m a Senior and have other commitments, this is basically my longtime project and a hobby.
I just tried this link you provided – something i was not familiar with at all. I had to play about with it as I wasn’t sure how it works, and of course i made a few errors BUT I do agree it is faster and easier.
– https://wordpress.com/menus/dinepixtravel.wordpress.com –
how can i get the tutoring on this – please – as a do have an error sign (in red) telling me “There was a problem saving your menu.”i was always using the other URL as that’s the only one that seem to be working for me but as i was entering more items it was getting harder to place a few recipes.
Over – All – do you Advice that my site/blog is well and as it suppose to be as far as the Widgets, Categories, Menus, etc… did I place everything right?
My friends and family all compliment me for doing such an easy site for them to follow on my Recipes – what do you think, i appreciate your input.
Thanks for the help. -
No problem! You can reply whenever.
how can i get the tutoring on this – please
One to one tutoring is not available through WordPress.com directly, so posting here in the support forums will hopefully be helpful and work well for you.
as a do have an error sign (in red) telling me “There was a problem saving your menu.”
That doesn’t sound good. Can you tell me if that problem is still happening for you if you try editing https://wordpress.com/menus/dinepixtravel.wordpress.com again now?
If it is still a problem, clearing browser cache would be a good first troubleshooting step to try. Here are some instructions in case it comes to that:

Is that because dragging items into place was too hard with a longer menu?

Your friends and family are right, I think https://dinepixtravel.wordpress.com/ looks great! One thing you might add is a featured image on the home page. Updating it every so often could be a fun, interesting change for your readers.
