How do I remove the Anniversaries option from the burger menu?

[Richie (Richie Rich)]

Discourse 3.6.0.beta3-latest (3183a95823).

A new Anniversaries option has appeared in my menu:

I cannot remove it because it does not appear in the list custom list

That’s added by the discourse-cakeday plugin — disabling the plugin should remove it. Or, do you want to keep the plugin enabled and simply remove the link?

In case you want to hide it with CSS: I wrote a little about hiding links that plugins add to the sidebar in Configuring the default sidebar for your users

Or, do you want to keep the plugin enabled

I don’t even know what a cakeday is, much less if I want to keep it

I’ve disabled the plugin, that’s removed it - thanks!

I don’t even know what a cakeday is

It was added to core a few weeks ago, and it’s enabled by default

plugins/discourse-cakeday/config/settings.yml

@david

All these plugins will remain disabled by default, so this won’t have any visible impact on existing communities.

@Moin

and it’s enabled by default

Ah-ha, that’ll explain how and why it appeared out of nowhere then, thanks
