Quicklaunch - Permission dependant? (Sharepoint Online)
Hi, we have a very simple site for a small business, with just one site and 3 document libraries so far - 2 of these libraries are set so only the site owners group have permissions.
The problem is in the quicklaunch menu, the title of these libraries still appears for users in groups who do not have permission to access these libraries. When they click on this, they just see an empty library, which is good as they cannot access anything they shouldn't. However, we don't want them to be able to see the name of these libraries in the quicklaunch menu at all.
We are only using Sharepoint Online. Is there a way to fix this without coding our own navigation menu?
Regards.
T.

- I think it should be trimmed. Try editing the quick launch. Remove the link. Then go into the library settings and on title settings click to show on quick launch there so it adds itself to the quick launch and see if it works.
- Hi Chris -
Thanks for your response. We've tried it that way, and it's still not security trimmed. All of our users are still seeing every item in the quicklaunch even when they have no permission.connect665 Did you get an answer to this question? I'm having the same issue. I have a site with 45 libraries, all permissioned and I only want them to see the ones they have permissions for. Works great in SP 2016.
