Description
Hi,
Thank for the amazing dashboard, it really made me love to code.
I have added multiple links in the navbar and become very long and can't distinguish between the external links and the flexdashboard pages.
I was hoping to find a way to collapse it in single dropdown list
the navbar code looks so far like below
navbar:
- { title: "Data", icon: "fa-database", href: "http://www.google.com", target: "_blank"}
- { title: "Data", icon: "fa-database", href: "http://www.websitex.com", target: "_blank"}
- { title: "Data", icon: "fa-database", href: "http://www.websitey.com", target: "_blank"}
I've tried to achieve the same result using the level 1 headers, but it seems there isn't any hyperlink option there.
Thank you in advance
