Adding Menu Items to Employee Center

Hi All,

 

We are trying to add menu items to our employee centre, and have done so by following these steps;

 

Portal Configuration > Main Menu > Employee Center Menu > Menu Item Related List > New

I then went back to Employee Center Menu, copied the Sys_ID from the new Menu Item and wrote the below JSON:

 The menu item is now showing correctly, and behaving as expected but I get the following errors:

Does anyone know what steps I have gone wrong at? 

 

Thanks,

Out of the box that would only be possible by using the default "More" menu item and updating this one. (or updating the sys_id mentioned on enable_more_items)

 

You can't add a second/third/etc Menu item to the top menu out-of-the-box. You can on de sub menu, though no on the top menu. If you want to achieve such... you do need to edit the header 😞

 

Kind regards,
Mark

To add a menu item to the menu bar at the top (black bar) that is a URL link to another webpage.

Thanks, @Mark Roethof - I think that was the conclusion I was coming too. 

 

Instead of overcomplicating I will just use the 'More' menu item with sub-menu items for what is required. A shame as it is not quite as aesthetically pleasing but I now understand the logic behind why my requirement is not possible. 

 

Much appreciated for all your time and efforts @Mark Roethof and @Community Alums
