Hey there, as per title, I've noticed 2 new weird looking voices in my Administration backend panel in the "Components" menu. This is in my local working machine, and I've installed like a week ago Fabrik with the Github updates. I'm using last Joomla 3.4.5 on a windows machine with XAMPP.

menu components

Luckly enough with a quick search in the databse I found those voices are from 2 of your plugins "password" and "notes". (the red marked number are IDs)

Image from "menu" table
menu id

Image from "extensions" table
plugins-id

Unfortunately I've noticed this just now, so I can't really tell when first happened (but I guess indee after the Github update process).

Simply removing the row from the database should fix this I think, but maybe is something to do with your internal functioning, so I'm reporting here this first to know your opinion.

Thank you!

I don't think it's Fabrik (only) but Joomla.
Your screenshot is stating Type=plugin, so why are they showing up in "Components"?

On my site I can't see your plugins but the birthday plugin.
BUT additionally site there are

A GitHub update is just copying files, did you do the "Post GitHub steps", ie. "Refresh Cache" in Extension manager?
Maybe Joomla is doing something wrong there or the xml files are not 100% correct.

You can find the entries in #_menu, menutype=main

Thanks Trob,
yes I've cleared the cache, and tried again, no noticeable results.

Can't understand fully what you mean, I've tried looking at the .xml files of the "password" and "notes" plugins but haven't noted anything wrong. What should I look for exactly?

This was "thinking loudly" what I've found - for Hugh and Rob for looking further.

If you want to get rid of the Component entries you can delete them from the #_menu table (not the #_extensions table; but always backup before touching such core tables).

Next time better open a thread, the issues are for confirmed Fabrik issues.

Tthanks for your input!
Sorry, I thought was better to open a possible technical issue here instead of post on forum. Should I open a post on the forum then? or I leave this here?

pretty sure this is nothing to do with us. That menu rendering is dealt with in Joomla. Our plugin declarations in the db are correct.
I would suggest reporting this on the Joomla project
