Remove and edit items in the Navigation menu

Remove and edit items in the Navigation menu

Good afternoon,

I am hoping that someone will be able to assist me with the removal of some the menu items in the Navigation menu. I have read a few posts however I am not grasping where of how to action it. I require them items to be viewable from other areas so i cannot hide the items. I would also like to change the Dashboard item to read 'My Courses' (please see below).

I have found CSS that works, however I only require some sub-items to be removed (i.e. under site pages > note, tags, about this site, Staff/external  information)

Any assistance would be really appreciated !!

To change the word 'dashboard', edit the language pack: go to Site administration > Language > Language customisation.

To hide the site sub-pages, go to Site administration > Appearance > Navigation and untick 'Show front page activities in the navigation'.

To hide the link to Notes, add this to your custom CSS:

a#label_3_8 {display: none;}

To hide the link to Tags, add this to your custom CSS:

a#label_3_9 {display: none;}

If they don’t work, tell us your site address and I’ll tell you the correct a#label_x_y numbers
