7.3 User menu

Latest revision as of 12:16, 18 June 2025

Overview

Users can customize their personal navigation menu. The mega menu can be opened by clicking on the profile picture in the top toolbar.

The user menu consists of two sections: Customizable links and Personal tools. Only the customizable links can be edited.

By default, the menu shows the following information:

Pages visited (widget PAGESVISITED)
My edits (widget YOUREDITS)

These widgets can be removed individually when a user customizes the sidebar.

Adding links

View instructions on the menu editor help page.

Personal Tools

These links are always displayed and cannot be customised. They lead to special pages that display information filtered for the user's own account:

Tasks
Watchlist
Reminders
My blog
Contributions
Assignments
Privacy center
Profile
