Whilst many people have opposed the decision, the navigation menu interface was forced into the Customizer.<\/p>\n\n

As there are many people who don't have to time to explain this to all existing clients, this plugin simply removes the menu panel\/section from the Customizer.<\/p>\n\n

We support this plugin exclusively through Github<\/a>. Therefore, if you have any questions, need help and\/or want to make a feature request, please open an issue over at Github. You can also browse through open and closed issues to find what you are looking for and perhaps even help others.<\/p>\n\n
