Side Navigation Modifications

Web part name (as shown in web part properties) to which you’re suggesting an enhancement
Side Navigation

What is current web part behavior (or look) that doesn’t work for you?

We’d like to make a few feature requests for this web part

  • Ability to change the icon in the floating button (closed version)
  • Ability to add divider lines between links
  • Ability to add secondary children links
  • Ability to have the parent links clickable
  • Ability to disable search function and/or change the “search” text
  • Ability to add icons to left of links
  • Ability to theme text and icons with UI colors

> Have a screenshot (please do not include confidential info in your screenshots)?

Here’s a rough idea of what we’re looking for.

What would you like the web part behavior (or look) to be?
> Have a sketch or a mockup? See Above
What is the scenario for which you need the suggested new look/behavior?

We’d like this panel to potentially function as a static left navigation (like Notion UI’s left panel) - similar to the top navigation drop downs, but fixed to the left with more theming and functionality baked in.

Reference from Notion UI:

Thank you for your suggestion @nicolenbcu, we will post an update here when one is available.

Congrats! We were able to accommodate the items below, please reach out to support to request an upgrade.

  • Ability to add divider lines between links
  • Ability to add secondary children links (this should be already available, please check with support if you need help configuring)
  • Ability to disable search function and/or change the “search” text
  • Ability to theme text and icons with UI colors

Other items we were not able to accommodate for various reason thought they remain active in our queue as this component evolves.
