Until users read the FAQ, it will appear in their hamburger menu. Can I disable this behavior and become FAQ-less?

Even after reading FAQ, it appears in the hamburger menu. It’s just that it shifts in the last column.

Even worse 😅, is there a way to totally remove the FAQ so it never appears (whether unread or not). I can’t see a way to delete it.

Deleting built-in stuff like these pages isn’t supported AFAIK.

Rather than try to delete it, which could have unpleasant side effects, I would suggest trying to use CSS to hide the option. It’s non-destructive and if you need the FAQs in the future you just roll back the CSS tweak.

You can do it in CSS by hiding the second `li` with a CSS selector.

Sadly our HTML structure there is wanting for a bit of an improvement cause the `li` should have the `faq-link` class not the `a`.

That said `:nth-child(2)` is your friend here.

Thanks ya’ll 🙂, this was very helpful. I ended up adding the following CSS:

```css
.hamburger-panel .widget-link[href="/faq"] {
    display: none;
}

```

This’ll work whether the FAQ link is at the top of the menu (because its unread) or near the bottom.
