Form value count limit 1024 exceeded.

Hi All,

Nop-Commerce version: 4.00
Nop-templates plugin: ManageMenus

I was trying to add menu items using the above plugin and nopcommerce version.

After adding a few entries successfully, it started throwing the following error:

Log Level: Error
Short Message: Form value count limit 1024 exceeded.

System.IO.InvalidDataException: Form value count limit 1024 exceeded.

Can someone please advice what is happening?
How do I fix this issue?
Does this require the nopcommerce 4.00 to be updated to 4.30 ? I Would prefer not to do it as it would force me to pay for all the third party plugins once again.

Admin page where the error happens: /admin/MegaMenuAdmin/MenuEdit/1

any update on this please?

did you try starting a support ticket with the plugin creator?
https://www.nop-templates.com/HelpDesk/NewTicket

I wasnt sure if this was just the problem with the plugin or with the nop4.0 itself.

I saw that there was a bug that got fixed in nop https://github.com/nopSolutions/nopCommerce/issues/2743

The fix was done by adding RequestFormLimits filter in nop rather than the plugin there.

Would this work for my case too?

If you are compiling your version 4.0 from source you could check whether your version includes this commit:
https://github.com/nopSolutions/nopCommerce/commit/907682176cb6cc67bbfd424278784f650d591a75

However, you would likely need the [RequestFormSizeLimit(2048)] attribute to be in the MegaMenuAdmin controller, which only Nop-Templates can do.

Out of curiosity, if you hit F12 in your browser and view the network tab can you see what the form is trying to send?
