About This Feature

Overview

Collaboration Navigation Column Configuration is an admin feature in the enterprise management console that helps organizations manage how WPS Collaboration navigation is displayed across different device types. Admins can open the navigation configuration page and adjust desktop and mobile navigation sections separately, including entry placement, quantity ranges, ordering, and some display naming behavior.

This feature covers these core tasks:

  • Open the navigation configuration page to reach the admin entry quickly.
  • Configure desktop navigation sections such as the top navigation bar, external left sidebar entries, more menu entries, and avatar menu items.
  • Configure mobile navigation sections such as the main navigation bar, shortcut entries, and menu items on the My page.

It is useful for standardizing enterprise collaboration entry points, highlighting frequently used apps, shortening access paths for members, and planning different layouts for desktop and mobile use.

Overall Conclusion
If your organization needs one admin workflow to plan collaboration navigation separately for desktop and mobile, WPS offers a closer fit for that scenario. The other products here focus more on branding, personal sidebar organization, or toolbar customization, so their scope is different from enterprise collaboration navigation management.
