Navbar - add custom links

[boCyrill]

This has been quite easier for me for EspoCRM 7 and higher.
Just add this entry {"navbarView" : "custom:views/site/navbar"} in Custom/Resources/metadata/clientDefs/App.json
Then create this file and thats all custom/views/site/navbar.js

This seems way more complicated than it needs to be. Is this still how it is done in version 8?

All I want is to add a link to our project management system, so people can navigate back and forth between our systems. My project management system lets me link to EspoCRM, but its odd that EspoCRM won't let you leave EspoCRM... unless you change the code.

I am reading these directions, but I don't understand them.

Where do you put the link https://example.com in the code? None of the example code has a URL in it. How do you create an external link in the sidebar?

I'm having the same issue.

The folder's path doesn't even match as they are structured nowadays, i need to insert a link on the navbar too.
