When I go into the blocks administration page and make a change to a block region, I click save, the blocks page reloads and my region change is not saved. For explain I change a block region called "Youth Sports Tabs" from a content region of to click save, and when the page reloads the changes are not saved. Would appreciate ANY HELP. I have pulled out all my hair.

Hi mccscp, error_log file noted something about max_input_vars When reviewing the public_html/citym****/error_log file on your server, I noticed the following error message: [19-May-2014 10:14:51 America/Los_Angeles] PHP Warning: Unknown: Input variables exceeded 1000. To increase the limit change max_input_vars in php.ini. in Unknown on line 0 Increasing max_input_vars seemed to fix the issue As the error message stated, the max_input_vars setting seemed too low for what you were trying to do, so I edited /usr/local/lib/php.ini and changed the value from 1000 to 1500 and then restarted apache: 
max_input_vars = 1500
It doesn't seem like an issue that would be caused by upgrading quicktabs... it was maybe coincidental.

Hi mccscp, Error logs If you're trying to save a block but it's not saving, there may be an error occurring, and hopefully that error is being logged. If we can find the error, it may help us troubleshoot what exactly is happening. Please check your apache error logs and your cPanel error log and let us know if you are seeing any errors reported around the same time you're trying to save your blocks. History of issue Knowing the history of this issue can help too. I assume your drupal site worked fine and allowed you to save blocks without any issue - but then it suddenly stopped working? Do you recall any changes you may have made recently that coincide with this issue occurring? For example, have you recently installed a new extension or something similar?
