@mukeshpanchal27 Thanks for the feedback. You're right - I found another instance of the same placeholder generation method in wp-admin/includes/class-walker-nav-menu-checklist.php that could contribute to the non-unique name issue.
I've updated my PR to address both locations with the same consistent approach using a static counter that ensures uniqueness.
This PR fixes an issue where custom menu items in the WordPress navigation menu were being generated with duplicate input names, causing potential form submission and processing issues.
I've tested this with various menu configurations including regular menu items, custom links, and items added through plugins, and the issue with duplicate name attributes no longer occurs.
Let me know if you'd like me to make any adjustments to this approach or if you see any other instances I may have missed.
