Summary: Need to update, rename, or reconfigure a link in your network's menu? The right method depends on how the menu item was originally added to your platform. This guide helps you identify the menu item type and then walks you through the matching way to change its title, URL, icon, or audience.
1. Identify your menu item type
To see how a menu item was created, and so how to change it, open your administrator settings in a desktop browser:
- Open your Network settings.
- Go to Appearance in the configuration sidebar.
- Open the Menu tab.
Locate the menu item you want to modify and check whether a three-dots options menu is visible on its right-hand side. What you find determines your next step:
- Three-dots menu is there? Follow section 2 below.
- The item is not in this list at all? Follow section 3 below.
2. Items with a three-dots menu (Network Design)
If a three-dots icon appears next to the menu item, click it. What you can edit depends on the link's origin:
- Custom menu items: You can fully edit the item's title, destination URL, and display icon. From this panel, you can also toggle whether the URL opens within a frame inside the network or launches in a new browser tab.
- Externally managed apps: You can only edit the item's display title. Because the underlying functions of these items are managed by an external software layer, you must log into that third-party platform to make deeper adjustments. If you need help, email us at support@speakap.com with the name of the menu item and a description of the changes you want.
3. Items not in the list (Speakap Market)
If the menu item is completely missing from the standard Network Design menu, it is built on backend APIs and application manifests. To change these entries, go to the Speakap Market tab, located directly below the Menu options in your Network settings.
Inside the Speakap Market, locate your active application and use its management tools:
- The gear icon: Click this to configure the Speakap Market app's settings. Step-by-step instructions and technical parameters are provided directly inside the configuration pop-up window.
- The network icon: Click this to adjust the audience. Here you define exactly which users or organizational groups can see the menu item.
Need deeper customizations? Speakap Market items are typically powered by externally managed integrations, so complex structural changes should be handled in the source application. Alternatively, email us at support@speakap.com and our technical staff can process the required manifest updates for you.
