Hi Gem,

I thank you soooo much, that did the job smile Perhaps I find some time to study the navigationlib and find out what changed in the API and why the custom hooks don't work anymore like before.
Have a nice day!

all the best from Salzburg / Austria,
Tom

It looks like the custom hooks don't work in Boost because they are not used (at all) for the top menu.  The navigation block was deemed unnecessary, but none of that functionality was moved to the new top menu.  It doesn't use the navigation object to render the top navigation.  The new top menu is only the three hard coded links and whatever is specified in the theme settings for "custommenuitems".

The old hooks should continue to work in classic, but they seem to have no effect on the primary navigation in Moodle 4.
