Quick Links

By default, SiteFarm uses the quick links menu as seen on the UC Davis home page in the upper right corner. If this works for you, no changes need be made.

Default Quick Links block content.
Example #1: This is the default version of the Quick Links block that lives in the upper right corner of your site. The list of links is based on the official UC Davis' home site Quick Links.

To remove Quick Links completely

  1. In your admin panel, navigate to Appearance » Settings tab » SiteFarm One theme.
  2. In the Page Element Display section, locate the following text:
    Use the Quick Links menu from www.ucdavis.edu
    Checking this box will automatically insert all the links from the www.ucdavis.edu website. If you choose to uncheck, but still want a custom Quick Links menu, you will want to customize the available 'Quick Links' menu as described below.
  3. Uncheck the box.
  4. Scroll to the bottom of the screen and click Save configuration to finish.
