Abandon Separators in Customizable Main Menu

1 Reasons to Abandon Feature

In ILIAS 6 the main menu was fundamentally revised. The main menu entries are accessed via the MainBar. All subentries are displayed in the Slate as Bulky buttons. Drilldown menus are used to structure the menu.

There are no Separatore in the new menu structure. Accordingly, it should not be possible to add them using the Customizable Main Menu.

For this reason, we suggest to abandon this function from ILIAS 6

2 Technical Information

During the conception of the "Page Layout Revision" and the associated restructuring of the MainBar the separators were unfortunately not taken into account. Therefore, there is currently no UI component or idea how such a look should be used to display separators in the MainBar. Therefore the feature will be removed with ILIAS 6 to create separators. Existing separators will no longer be displayed and can be deleted in the administration.
