Max amount buttons in primary menu

Hi Tom,
First of all: great job on this theme!
For a client i have to make a pretty big website, between 250 and 300 pages in total.
Right now i am making the main menu with a lot dropdown-menus.
Could it be that there is a maximum amount of buttons allowed for the primary menu?
The problem is that every new page/button i make, another page gets lost.
Right now it seems that the menu allows 90 pages to be shown.
Off course i would like to have that as "no limit".
Hope to hear from you. Thanks.
Kind regards, Joris
Hi there,
Yes, there's a limit which is partially due to WP and partially due to PHP itself.
You can see more here: http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/96587/menu-items-disappearing
As a user of websites, I would say that 100+ items in the main navigation bar is a bit overkill. Perhaps try linking out all of the pages inside Footer widgets, and only keeping super important items in the main menu?
Of course, if you increase some of the variables mentioned in the post above, you should be able to add more menu items :)
