Adding additional tabs to the Nav Bar

Tags salesforce

There are dozens of potential tabs that can be added to Nav Bars, and depending on your job role, you will likely need to add items occasionally.  Note that although you can also remove items that you've added, you cannot remove any default tabs.

To add a new tab:

  1. Click the pencil icon at the right-hand end of the Nav Bar:  
  2. Click the "Add More Items" button:

  1. Enter what you'd like to add, for example "Calendar" in order to select the Calendar tab, and then click the plus sign next to the desired select.  (Note that you don't necessarily need to type the entire name of the item. In this example you could just type "Cal", which will bring up the Calendar option.)
