Communities help you create a special place for customers to meet, learn, and interact, creating added marketing opportunities without having to churn out new content. By default, they will contain six navigation tabs (Discussion, Learning, Events, Leaderboard, Members, and About). However, if you’re looking to curate the experience a bit more, disabling certain tabs might do the trick. Come along to learn how.

Enabling or Disabling A Tab #

• Navigate to the Community Groups tab inside the Memberships section and log in to your desired Community.
• Access the settings on the right side of your Group’s page.
• Switch to the Show / Hide Tabs section.
• Toggle the sections on or off as you wish, then click Save.

Note: To keep communities functional and discoverable, Discussion and About are mandatory and cannot be disabled.

Changes apply immediately for all users in the community, removing unnecessary tabs and helping customers experience your Community the way you intended. We hope you enjoy it.
