I have simple situation but can't get the right answer and solution

Problem: for example my woocommerce category name “soup, noodle & pasta” I add this category in my menu and after that will change my category name “pizza, pasta & noddles” it should automatically update in in menu too.

but unfortunately it's not working.

Think I already did I tried to disabled all plugin not happened I tried to change theme same result

test case If you have category simple category name e.g "contact" it will work fine.

My issue is when I put special character like "," or "&" i face this issue

  • Please contact the plugin author directly - this is related to their specific plugin code, not anything we here could help with.

  • @WebElaine well I am not using any plugin it's default behavior of WordPress I install fresh WordPress and use WordPress default theme still facing the same issue Sep 10, 2019 at 14:07
  • In the inital post you said "I have this test case in other menu plugin and it’s not updated that’s why I confirming before buy this plugin." Your post still says "for my woocommerce category name." Are you saying you have tried creating a Core Post, Page, or Category with that same type of name including an amperand, put it in a Core Menu in a default theme, and you're still encountering issues?
