Changes at "Ability to remove/hide menu items"

    @verarojman asked on gitter whether it was possible to somehow remove menu items through the decidim.rb initializer. I investigated a bit and it looks like the menu subsystem is append-only at this point.

    It is possible to hide them using CSS/JS hacks, but that's obviously brittle and can have unexpected consequences.

    Being able to edit the menu through the initializer (or through the admin dashboard) seems like a sensible expectation from Decidim instance maintainers, to me. And from what I could tell, it's viable to extend the menu subsystem to allow for this within its current architecture.

    Not sure how high a priority this would be, of course. Nor how common this demand is.

    What do you all think?

    Update

    @microstudi suggests this should be done in a third-party module, and said his team might work on it at some point.
