IS it Possible to remove the left hand nav from a modern team site

Hi   Is it possible to remove the left hand navigation bar from a modern team site so that If I use a Hero Web Part it can take up the whole of the screen ?   Then can I put the old search box in...

    I think the supported way to do this would be to write an extension (so it is applied to all pages in the site) that implements CSS to make the changes you are after.

     

    The CSS to hide the left hand nav on a modern page is:

     
    nav[role='navigation'] {
    display: none !important;
}
div[class^='searchBox_'] {
    display: none !important;
}
div[class^='pageContainer_'] {
    left: 0 !important;
}

     

    The same extension that injects this CSS could also display a search box (if you want it on every page), that redirects users to your search results page and injects the query into the 'k' querystring parameter

     

    hope it helps,

Nigel_Price9911 I found that you can hide the div in a CSS stylesheet. Just replace the red text below with the id for your div and it should hide it. I've noticed that the div changes after a while which means I need to go update the id for that div but it works well otherwise.

 

div.spNav_1846ed68 {position: absolute; visibility: hidden; display: none !important;}
