There are three types of menus in RT4: the main menu, the page menu, and the page widgets.

==Modifying Menus==
All of these menus can be altered, culled, and augmented by [[CustomizingWithCallbacks]]. The main RT menu can be modified from the "Menu" object in the callback. Here is an example of adding a new root menu item to RT:

=== local/html/Callbacks/*/Elements/Tabs/Privileged ===

<%init>
# Add a brand new root menu item
my $bps = Menu()->child(
'bps', # any unique identifier
title => 'Corporate',
path => '[http://bestpractical.com http://bestpractical.com]'
);

#Add a submenu item to this root menu item
$bps->child(
'wiki',
title => 'Wiki',
path => '[http://wiki.bestpractical.com http://wiki.bestpractical.com]',
);

#Retrieve the 'actions' page menu item
if (my $actions = PageMenu->child('actions')) {
$actions->child(
'newitem',
title => loc('New Action'), path => '/new/thing/here',
)
}

# Remove the 'home' root menu item (don't try this at home!)
Menu->delete('home');

# The 'home' menu item key comes from the first argument to ->child where
# the Home link is added in Elements/Tabs. The key for retrieving our new
# Corporate link as above above would be 'bps'.
</%init>

The objects returned by the functions <code>Menu()</code> and <code>PageMenu()</code> are <code>RT::Interface::Web::Menu</code> instances. Documentation for the <code>child</code> and <code>delete</code> methods used above, plus more, is available by running <code>perldoc /opt/rt4/lib/RT/Interface/Web/Menu.pm</code>.
