    Currently a link to My Profile is added automatically to the end of the Main Menu. This replicates functionality in the admin bar directly underneath it.

    screenshot of BMCC main navigation with two my profile links highlighted.

    Is it possible to expose a way to remove the link in the Main Menu, or to add a class to that item so it can be hidden by CSS?

    These are some related questions the BMCC group also had that I’m collecting here as they have to do with the UX of the navigation for the site but could be broken off if people see fit.

    Breakpoint issues with longer Main Menus

    You can see in the image at certain screen widths the main nav is too long for the window and breaks to a second line but is then hidden by the admin bar. This problem is resolved either when the spacing and font size is altered at one lower breakout or when the hamburger menu comes at an even lower breakpoint.

    navigation shows with less spacing and smaller font

    Modification to Admin Bar

    Another possible change to the navigation is to combine the My Profile and Username, currently on the left and right sides of the admin bar. One idea here is to just add the dropdown items currently in My Profile under the user’s name and remove My Profile from the left side. There could be other ways to do this.

CBOX has its roots in the CUNY Academic Commons, which in turn was made possible through funding from The City University of New York itself.
