I'm attempting to set the generated categories to the category "Flagged"
After saving it reverts to "General"
Additionally, the generated categories seem to be dropped into an unlabeled category

I think you are talking about the Flagging plugin.
This plugin just notifies, about the the Flagging, it does not change the way the Flagging plugin works, it is purely reactive,
grep is your friend.
You are correct,
You are correct!
I think I found my problem
@Tim
grep is your friend.
I was wrong, the Flagging plugin still fails to update my preferences.
Perhaps it's something in my cache/DB?
@Tim can you chime in?
Turn on the Debugger plugin and see what errors are happening. I didn't write this plugin, I have no idea why I'm being referred to here.

Thanks Tim, I was under the impression you wrote "Flagging" which is the plugin causing the issue.
I posted this question under the wrong plugin by mistake.
I've turned on debugging,
I don't really know what I'm looking for here,

Flagging Plugin
@oboyledk
is it possible that your config could have been saves with he wrong permission and is not writeable?
grep is your friend.
It would certainly seem that way x00
After reviewing though, permissions are set correctly, and I am able to edit the file by changing settings in vanilla.
Very Odd. The Flagging plugin worked at first, but not just dumps the generated discissions into a nameless catagory. It's as if it's unable to store the value regarding what catagory to use.
I wonder where that value is stored? in the plugin? in the config? in the DB?
@tim As Flagging it your plugin would you be able to state the storage location?
$Configuration['Plugins']['Flagging']['CategoryID']
grep is your friend.
Thanks Paul.
Still no luck, maybe I"ll wipe out and rebuild my config file/reload the plugin
are you using memcached?
grep is your friend.
Yes, actually we turned that on about the same time the issue started.
@oboyledk @x00 was this ever solved? i'm having the same issue.
@Rajio
The cause of my problem was related to using Memcached. It was breaking something in the way the data was stored.
Turned it off, things worked.
how would i do that?
