 * This is an older plugin now and hasn’t been updated to work around newer WordPress
   additions. One such addition is the nav_menu_item post_type, and it ends up trying
   to validate them.
 * To fix this, open up **toptions.php** and change **line 14** to this:
 * `$myQuery="SELECT ID,post_name,guid FROM " . $prefix . "posts WHERE post_status
   ='publish' AND post_type!='nav_menu_item' ";`
 * Hopefully this could get implemented into a future version, if the plugin developer
   is still among the living.
