When editing an existing newsletter issue, after trying to save I keep getting an error:
An illegal choice has been detected. Please contact the site administrator.

Log states:
Illegal choice 7 in Simplenews element.

There no way to edit or save an existing newsletter...

Found it!
In the content type settings of simplenews, I translated the value of "IDENTIFACTION -> Type" to my own language.
The module obviously does not like this. :)
Changing it back, makes the error go away.

After I did the above, the error was gone for a minute. But after adding imagefield, insert, ckeditor and so on, the error is back. Not sure what causes it...

I suspect module Taxonomy Defaults to be causing this:

Default terms
Below you may select default terms for each content type. Checking the 'Hide' checkbox to hide the vocabulary on the node creation form while still applying the default terms.

I had the newsletter selected as default and hidden its dropdown menu with this module.
When I uncheck "hide" again, the error disappears.

Hi,

What version of Taxonomy Defaults are you using ? Could it be the same issue as #810830: An illegal choice has been detected - please contact the site administrator ?

Could be a related issue. I'm using Taxonomy Defaults 6.x-2.0. The problem only occurs when 'hidden'.

Hi,
Could you test with the new release of Taxonomy Defaults (6.x-2.1) ?

Considering this a duplicate of #810830: An illegal choice has been detected - please contact the site administrator, please re-open if it's not the case.
