Left Menu Items

[Michael]

Hi,

Under "My Perspective" in the left menu there are the following items...

TimeSheet
Feedback Portal
TFS Sync Status

We don't use any of these things. Can I make these things not show up? It confuses users.

Hi Michael,

If all Feedback Portals for your projects are marked as disabled, the Feedback Portal view will disappear. You can disable them in Settings -> Projects -> Select a project -> Portal tab -> Portal is disabled.
 
This is also valid for the TFS Sync Status view. If you don't have any TFS servers to sync with, the view will disappear. You can manage the sync servers in Settings -> Integration.

I'm afraid that we have no option to exclude the TimeSheet view. The only workaround that you can do is to navigate to TeamPulse files. The default path is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Telerik\TeamPulse\wwwroot\Scripts\wirejs\sidemenu\sideMenuService.js". There you need to remove this exact string "{name:kendo.culture().strings.Timesheet,href:"#Timesheet",section:"Work"},".

Note that with every upgrade this change will disappear.

If you have any other questions do not hesitate to contact us again.

We don't have any TFS connections but we still have TFS Sync in left nav. Any way to remove this?

Hello Brian,

If there are no GIT or TFS servers in Settings->Integration, the view will disappear. However, you can workaround this by removing/commenting part of the code in the file mentioned in our previous post. Navigate to "<your TeamPulse install folder>\wwwroot\Scripts\wirejs\sidemenu\sideMenuService.js" and remove this exact string: if(i){j.push({name:kendo.culture().strings.TfsSyncStatus,href:"#TfsSyncStatus",section:"Work"})}

Do not forget to back-up sideMenuService.js before editing it in case any issues occur.

Note that we are going to release a new version in the next couple of months, that will allow users to customize the navigation and add views as favorites.

Thanks Elena. Excited to hear about the update. I'm on a trial at the moment. I'm guessing the change the the .js file can only be made on hosted deployments of teampulse?

Hi Brian,

Yes, this .js file can only be modified if you have on-premise installation of TeamPulse. 
Do not hesitate to contact us again if you need any further assistance.
