Navigation inheritance not working for communication site to subsites
- Mar 21, 2023
Michael Henriksson Microsoft recommends using flat site structure in SharePoint online instead of sub sites.
You can have same theme and navigation for multiple sites using hub site and associated sites concepts.
Check below Microsoft official documentations for detailed information about this:

I ended up using some separate sites and connected these to the hub.
Still a bit confusing why the option to inherit the navigation is there but not working.
Thanks

Please just remove stuff that is not working or not supported anymore.
