  I haven't tried it, but I think you can group the elements you want hidden, and then hide it using // hidden: true

  I don't think it's currently possible. But I'm pretty sure it's in the roadmap

  I've seen this request come up quite a bit. I'm going to create a feature request 👍

  
  

  
  

  Currently, not possible other than a hack to disable globally w/ css

  
  

  
  

  Feature request created.

  For those interested in hiding with CSS (not a GREAT solution)...

  
  

  
  

  All of the nav-links follow the pattern

  
  

  
  

  id="nav-{collectionSlug}"

  I was about to come here to suggest a CSS interim solution, it's pretty easy. To hide the "posts" collection for example:

  
  

  .dashboard__card-list li:has(#card-posts), #nav-posts { display: none; }
