com.ibm.action.delete - Deletes an existing link or menu container provided by IBM - Example/Documentation?

[RayWeb123]

We are looking for a example or additional documentation about the way to hide existing items in the top navigation bar using "com.ibm.action.delete - Deletes an existing link or menu container provided by IBM" as documented in the ibm wiki: https://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/appdevwiki.nsf/xpDocViewer.xsp?lookupName=Dev+Guide+topics#action=openDocument&res_title=Managing_applications_for_Verse_or_the_Top_Navigation_Bar&content=sdkcontent

For example we would like to remove "Communities" from the Top Navigation.

Does anyone have an example or additional information?

You have to ask the curious 3rd party experts like Daniele Vistalli: https://github.com/Factor-y/ConnectionsCloudHowTo/tree/master/cloud/extensions/navigationbar

The docs from IBM are not very helpful, but it seems hard to explain why. They don't get it.

Thank you Bernd, with Danieles Example we got it to work. It is a pity that IBM does not provide better examples. Thanks for your help!

Does not work at the moment while in Verse, only works in CNX!

The gh-pages branch of this repo is where the documentations are stored. Should be able to create PR against that branch to update the existing documentation.
