Hi, I am building a website with Discourse. There’s a menu “ more “ on the left upper corner of Discourse under the menu Topics, My posts and My messages. The menu “ more “ brings some trouble to me: 1, when I clicked the menu “more “, there will be a small window popping up which covers the Category Menu. I will have to close the small popping up window to see the Categories. 2, there are a lot of menus in the menu “More “ , only the Filter menu is useful to my website now. Can I put the menu Filter under the menu Topics and hide the menu “More “? Thanks, Frank

Yes, you can add the filter link to the community section of the sidebar and remove it from the “more” menu. If the more menu is empty, because you removed all the links, it’s no longer shown. [image]Configuring the default sidebar for your users Community section The top section of your sidebar (without a visible heading) is called the “Community” section. This section is visible to all users and contains essential navigation links. To customize this section: Click More in the sidebar Select Customize this section at the bottom of the extended menu [The image shows the first section of a Discourse sidebar highlighting the "More" menu and the "Customize this section" option inside the menu.]

Hi Moun, I tried to Customize this section, but how to move the Filler up to Topics? Thanks

You add it as a new link and move it I tried to record it. Maybe that helps

I am not that used to dragging. It doesn’t work on tablets :wink: The tablet way actually is more like deleting all links and manually adding them in the order you want.

I tried to drag the icon on my desktop, it works. But then, can I hide the Menu “More “ if I don’t delete the contents of the menu More? If I delete the contents of the menu More, can I reinstall the contents by clicking “ Reset to default “?

Yes, you can always reset to defaults to get everything back. You can also add links to the more menu later by customizing the section. I would not hide it with CSS instead of removing the links in the more menu to let Discourse hide it. Hiding the full menu will also hide the customize option for you.

Very good, the problem solved. Thanks,Frank

I just tried and dragging links from below the “More…” up also works.
