If no item groups selected, simply search using the menu name and all the item groups under the menu would appear for you to apply the menu item configuration. The consumption items will no longer appear in the item groups to make it easier to select the item groups you need to create the menu item configuration for. With this new update the menu item configuration will be much easier to handle and do from your end.
