 * Could you elaborate on the nature of the conflict? For example, if you’re seeing
   an error somewhere, please let me know where the error happens and what the error
   message is.

 * Hi Janis,
 * Admin Menu Editor will not save any changes if Branda (the plugin) is activated.
   Besides, the original admin menu arrangement is totally messed up.

 * I can’t seem to reproduce that with AME 1.12.4 and Branda 3.4.23. When I activate
   Branda, I can still edit the admin menu in AME and save the changes, and the 
   changes are applied as expected.
 * I also tried activating the “Admin Menu” module in Branda (which you didn’t mention,
   but it looked like it could be relevant). With that module active, I can still
   save changes in AME, but changes made in Branda mostly override AME settings.
   For example, I moved the “Plugins” menu to the bottom in AME and the top in Branda,
   and it appeared at the top of the actual admin menu as a result. I wouldn’t consider
   this a conflict – if you’re going to use two menu editing plugins on the same
   site, one of the plugins is necessarily going to “win”. One of them has to; a
   menu item can’t have two different positions or titles at the same time.
 * In general, for consistent results, I’d recommend only editing the admin menu
   with one plugin. So if you want to use Branda but also use AME, try deactivating
   the “Admin Menu” module in Branda.

 * Hi,
 * Thank you so much for your clear reply. I had not figured out that, as a general
   rule, changes made in Branda override AME settings.
