Top Menu not populating options

Support

I am running latest Test-Passed (3.5…)

In ghost Theme and air Theme the top menu on main page is not giving all options configured in admin . Note also affects default themes.

The image shows a screenshot of a website interface, highlighting the "(year) Pockets Nexu" tab and the "Announcements" category with an unconfirmed VIP access for "Planet Pimax" in the "Latest" section. (Captioned by AI)

How would I fix this?

I’m not sure it’s broken as such. The unread and new tabs are deliberately hidden when there’s nothing to see. :magic_wand:

Though I think it is possible to force them to reveal themselves even when empty if that’s what you had in mind?

Maybe something like this?

// for desktop

.navigation-container .nav-pills .nav-item_new {
    
    display: initial !important;
}

.navigation-container .nav-pills .nav-item_unread {
    
    display: initial !important;
}

// for mobile

.dropdown-menu .nav-item_new {
    
    display: initial !important;
}

.dropdown-menu .nav-item_unread {
    
    display: initial !important;
}

Thank you Jam. Will need to test this out. The one pic showing it is stable at that time. So I am guessing they added the hide if not populated later in.

Will have to run one of my test users

Thanks for the code to restore past behavior.

I think that was added in 2018

I think there is some magic so users with trust level 0 see new and unread even when they are empty, so they can learn they exist.

Maybe Experimental new new view groups is why you only see ‘new’? That also prevents new from being hidden.
