I am not sure where to post bug reports, but I have one. When modifying codes in Mario Kart Wii's WiiRD database, saving the file causes the codes to disappear. They must be redownloaded and the previous modifications are reverted. This occurs with both versions 4.0 and 4.0.1. I do not remember if that happened with version 3.5.
Reproduction steps:
1. Open Mario Kart Wii's Properties dialog.
2. Navigate to the Gecko Codes tab.
3. Download the codes.
4. Modify a code that has variables (X, Y, and Z) in the configuration file.
5. Save the file.
6. Close the text editor.
Upon returning to the emulator, the Gecko codes are absent and must be redownloaded. Upon doing that, any changes made to variables (X, Y, or Z) are reverted.

I downloaded the latest development build and the Gecko codes disappeared upon modifying one and saving the configuration file.

I will take a wild guess and say that perhaps https://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/source/detail?r=f57ff0a5698e is your cause. Try from here https://el.dolphin-emu.org/download/list/master/12/ revisions 4.0-103 and 4.0-104 to confirm it. The problem is that you need to create a new ini for codes after this rev to a file that ends with r and whatever is the revision of your iso making things way too complicated. For example GM4E01 will become GM4E01r0 for revision 0 and GM4E01r1 for revision 1.

It seems that the second link that you provided directs to the website in Greek. I don't know how to read Greek and neither Google nor Bing will translate that page. The default language might be Greek. The revision links also direct to the Greek website. The emulator downloaded is not in Greek. That is good. I downloaded 4.0-104 and the codes still disappear after modifying and saving the configuration file. I see a note about the codes on the download page. Perhaps the emulator needs to be downloaded a diffenent way than the standard download links. I use the 64-bit Windows builds. Perhaps something similar to Cheat Engine or a trainer needs to be designed for Dolphin containing Action Replay and Gecko codes. That might be more work than the developers would want to go through.

Sorry about that. Does 4.0-103 work ok for you though? If it is 4.0-104 is the culprit.
