I am attempting to save a resource as a Symlink.

It is a logout symlink that goes to the login page with this value in the Symlink field:
```
[[~[[++login_page_id]]]]?&service=logout
```
Where the context setting [[++login_page_id]] is set to the ID number of the Login resource.

The moment I leave the Weblink field empty, of it it just has this in it:
```
[[++login_page_id]]
```
It saves.

I have done this on a lot of MODX sites, including version 2.4.2. I have no idea why it refuses to save. Just goes into an endless saving cycle.

Was able to put the weblink in directly in the database but then attempting to add the page to a resource group again invokes the endless save that doesn't save.

As usual, I found the solution the moment after I posted the question. That said, it may be useful to other.

The Extra SyntaxChecker was not liking this for some reason and was preventing save. I removed the Extra and now it's fine.
