You can edit the hub site navigation by browsing to either the Site Contents page or a document library. Apparently a fix for the issue will be rolling out soon. A week or two ago there was an issue with the inability to change the hub site theme and the above was the suggested workaround.

I am still experiencing this issue - I do not believe it has been fixed Daniel Schmidt. I have a hub site with navigation defined and am trying to edit the URLs within each menu item - some update, others do not. Daniel Schmidt re: work-around, I cannot edit the URLs from the Site Contents or a document library - I can add links, but not modify them. From the home page, sometimes the 'Save' button works, other times it appears to work but then does not close the menu - leaving only the option to 'Cancel'. I do not receive an error in either case. When the 'Save' button appears to work (saves and then closes navigation editing), not all updated links are actually saved.

Laurie Petrick - Mine was fixed a couple weeks ago, the workaround (Go Site Contents and then edit) also worked for me. If you are still having problems then try a different browser, and if that does not work I would open a ticket with MS to see if your tenant got missed with the patch.

  Laurie Petrick it looks as though I am also in the same boat and the previous workaround no longer works so I have resorted to using PowerShell to manage the navigation so if you can't wait for MS to fix the problem look at using the following PnP PowerShell cmdlets.
  
  Get-PnPNavigationNode
  Add-PnPNavigationNode
  Remove-PnPNavigationNode
  
  You will need to install the SharePoint Online PowerShell module in order to do this, there is the link https://github.com/SharePoint/PnP-PowerShell.

    Du Le- thank you!! I've also reached out to Microsoft to see if the afore-mentioned fix had been pushed out to early release customers only and if they can check our tenant to see if we'd received it. I really appreciate the PS script below - it's not my forte, so this is helpful. Thanks again, Laurie
