Background
This page is to document the workaround to hide the links to access the logged in users' favourite dashboards
Before | After | |
---|---|---|
Top menu bar | ||
Side bar |
Design Considerations:
The Favourites tab was added so that:
- existing users who are used to the original Jira Favourites can still find it from the Dashboard page
- users with no folders set up will not be able to navigate to other dashboards
^ Please note the above considerations before applying the workaround
Steps
- Log in as an administrator into Jira
- Select User Interface > Announcement banner in the System panel or use the shortcut 'g'+'g' and type in "Announcement Banner"
- Enter the relevant CSS below into the Announcement field:
Hide Favourites tab from the side bar
CSS<style> #d-side-nav>ul>li#tabs-oFavorites-tab, #d-side-nav>ul>li#tabs-origFav-tab, #d-side-nav>ul>li#tabs-dFolders-tab { display: none !important; } #d-side-nav>div#tabs-dFolders, .dtab-content { border-top: none; margin-top: 2.5em; } .dtab-content.current { display: none; } div#tabs-dFolders { display: block !important; } </style>
Hide Favourites menu item from the top menu bar
CSS<style> div#dfolder_favourites { display: none; } div#d_folder_section { border-top: none; margin-top: 0; padding-top: 0; } </style>
