Did you use a previous test version? If so, there was a bug in the loglevel
saving/loading which was added where the log level was being erroneously saved
as an array when it should be saved as a single string. What you're seeing is
the older array value being loaded as a string.
Simplest solution is to delete the value from your gui preferences with:
defaults delete org.puredata.pd-pd-gui loglevel
This error will *only* come up for those on macOS who used test3 and changed
the log level.

This is also a holdover error from an earlier test release, clear the menu and
then try opening files to double check the entries are added and work when
clicked on.

That's normal and was the previous behavior. Hit enter or click.

That's also normal / previous behavior. Click or hit the right button to
update. If the browser updates whenever you navigate it goes a bit crazy
visually.
