About This Feature

Overview

Collaboration Navigation Column Configuration is an admin feature in WPS Collaboration that lets enterprise admins configure navigation layouts separately for desktop and mobile environments.

Core capabilities include:

Open the navigation configuration page: access the configuration entry from the enterprise admin console.
Configure desktop navigation: manage the top navigation bar, external entries in the left sidebar, more-menu entries, and avatar menu items, with drag-and-drop grouping and sorting.
Configure mobile navigation: manage the main navigation bar, shortcut entries, and menu entries on the My page.

This feature is useful for enterprise portal standardization, cross-device navigation planning, and multilingual entry management for distributed teams.
