Hi @Deleted User. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

---------------------- You can customize the menu item name and route by using the meta property in the resources array. Here's an example of how you can achieve this:

<Refine
  ...
  resources={[
    {
      name: "Dashboard",
      list: Home,
      icon: <House />,
      meta: { label: "CustomName", route: "/Dashboard" },
    },
  ]}
/>

<Refine
  ...
  resources={[
    {
      name: "Dashboard",
      list: Home,
      icon: <House />,
      meta: { label: "CustomName", route: "/Dashboard" },
    },
  ]}
/>

In this example, the menu item will have the name "CustomName" and the route will be "/Dashboard".

@kapa.ai its did not work I got this alert: ERROR in src/App.tsx:152:15 TS2322: Type '{ name: string; list: () => JSX.Element; show: () => JSX.Element; create: () => JSX.Element; edit: () => JSX.Element; icon: JSX.Element; meta: { label: string; route: string; }; }' is not assignable to type 'ResourceProps'. Object literal may only specify known properties, and 'meta' does not exist in type 'ResourceProps'

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:

---------------------- I apologize for the confusion. It seems that the meta property is deprecated and only works with the legacy routers. In the new routing system, you should define the paths by the actions of the resource. However, you can still customize the menu item name using the name property. To change the route, you can use the list property to define a custom path for the list action. Here's an example:

import { Route } from "react-router-dom";

<Refine
  ...
  resources={[
    {
      name: "CustomName",
      list: () => <Route path="/Dashboard" component={Home} />,
      icon: <House />,
    },
  ]}
/>

import { Route } from "react-router-dom";

<Refine
  ...
  resources={[
    {
      name: "CustomName",
      list: () => <Route path="/Dashboard" component={Home} />,
      icon: <House />,
    },
  ]}
/>

In this example, the menu item will have the name "CustomName" and the route will be "/Dashboard". Note that you'll need to import Route from react-router-dom.

I see here in sidebar page

            title={label ?? name}


<ListItemText
                primary={label}
                primaryTypographyProps={{
                  noWrap: true,
                  fontSize: "16px",
                  fontWeight: isSelected ? "bold" : "normal",
                  color: isSelected ? '#fff' : '#808191',
                  marginLeft: '10px'
                }}
              />

            title={label ?? name}


<ListItemText
                primary={label}
                primaryTypographyProps={{
                  noWrap: true,
                  fontSize: "16px",
                  fontWeight: isSelected ? "bold" : "normal",
                  color: isSelected ? '#fff' : '#808191',
                  marginLeft: '10px'
                }}
              />

---------------------- I apologize for the confusion earlier. It seems that the label property is not directly available in the ResourceProps. However, you can achieve the desired behavior by customizing the sidebar using the useMenu hook. Here's an example of how you can create a custom sidebar with a different label for the menu item:

import { Layout, Menu } from "antd";
import { useMenu, useNavigation } from "@pankod/refine";
import { House } from "react-icons/fa";

const CustomSidebar = () => {
  const { menuItems } = useMenu();
  const { push } = useNavigation();

  return (
    <Layout.Sider>
      <Menu mode="vertical">
        {menuItems.map((item) => {
          const label = item.name === "Dashboard" ? "CustomName" : item.name;
          return (
            <Menu.Item
              key={item.name}
              icon={item.icon || <House />}
              onClick={() => push(item.listRoute)}
            >
              {label}
            </Menu.Item>
          );
        })}
      </Menu>
    </Layout.Sider>
  );
};

// In your Refine component
<Refine
  ...
  resources={{[
    {{
      name: "Dashboard",
      list: Home,
      icon: <House />,
    }},
  ]}}
  layout={{ sider: CustomSidebar }}
/>

import { Layout, Menu } from "antd";
import { useMenu, useNavigation } from "@pankod/refine";
import { House } from "react-icons/fa";

const CustomSidebar = () => {
  const { menuItems } = useMenu();
  const { push } = useNavigation();

  return (
    <Layout.Sider>
      <Menu mode="vertical">
        {menuItems.map((item) => {
          const label = item.name === "Dashboard" ? "CustomName" : item.name;
          return (
            <Menu.Item
              key={item.name}
              icon={item.icon || <House />}
              onClick={() => push(item.listRoute)}
            >
              {label}
            </Menu.Item>
          );
        })}
      </Menu>
    </Layout.Sider>
  );
};

// In your Refine component
<Refine
  ...
  resources={{[
    {{
      name: "Dashboard",
      list: Home,
      icon: <House />,
    }},
  ]}}
  layout={{ sider: CustomSidebar }}
/>

In this example, we create a custom sidebar component CustomSidebar that uses the useMenu hook to get the menu items and the useNavigation hook to handle navigation. We then replace the default sidebar with our custom sidebar using the layout prop in the Refine component. This way, you can change the label of the menu item without affecting the route.

useMenu | refine

useMenu is used to get menu items derived from the resources. These items include a link to the dashboard page (if it exists) and links to the user-defined resources (passed as children to ``).

Hey @Deleted User looks like you are using the older version of refine. We recommend to keep refine up to date, at least for the major versions (we’re currently at v4) For the older versions, you can use the options property to define a custom label It will be like;

{
name: "Dashboard",
options: { label: "My Custom Title" },
list: MyComponent
}

{
name: "Dashboard",
options: { label: "My Custom Title" },
list: MyComponent
}

If you decide to migrate to v4 from v3, here is our migration guide https://refine.dev/docs/migration-guide/3x-to-4x/
