How can I remove Blog from top menu?
Question by: Guest on Nov 28, 2018, 2:56 PM
In Blog starting from 2.6.0 it is possible to remove it by disabling the Add Blog to Navigation Menu option.

As for earlier versions, it can be done by commenting the following event:
```
<event name="page_block_html_topmenu_gethtml_before">
<observer name="aw_blog_add_topmenu_items" instance="Aheadworks\Blog\Observer\AddBlogToTopmenuItemsObserver" />
</event>
```
in the following file:
app/code/Aheadworks/Blog/etc/frontend/events.xml

Note, to avoid any troubles it is recommended to make all the changes in dev environment.
