Hi @thilini. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- To create a custom sidebar (Sider) in a Refine React project with Ant Design, and have the "Users" sidebar item redirect to /users/create instead of the default /users (list), you need to customize the behavior of the menu item. By default, Refine's Sider uses the list property of the resource for navigation, so clicking "Users" will go to /users if that's how your resource is defined. How to achieve your requirement: 1. Custom Sider with Custom Navigation Logic You can use the render prop of the <ThemedSiderV2> (or <Sider>) component to override the default menu item behavior. In your custom render function, you can create a menu item for "Users" that navigates to /users/create when clicked. Here’s an example of how you might do this:

import { ThemedLayoutV2, ThemedSiderV2 } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { useNavigation } from "@refinedev/core";

const CustomSider = () => {
  const { push } = useNavigation();

  return (
    <ThemedSiderV2
      render={({ items, logout }) => (
        <>
          <div
            style={{ padding: 16, cursor: "pointer" }}
            onClick={() => push("/users/create")}
          >
            Users
          </div>
          {items}
          {logout}
        </>
      )}
    />
  );
};

// Usage in your layout
<ThemedLayoutV2 Sider={() => <CustomSider />}>
  {/* ... */}
</ThemedLayoutV2>

import { ThemedLayoutV2, ThemedSiderV2 } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { useNavigation } from "@refinedev/core";

const CustomSider = () => {
  const { push } = useNavigation();

  return (
    <ThemedSiderV2
      render={({ items, logout }) => (
        <>
          <div
            style={{ padding: 16, cursor: "pointer" }}
            onClick={() => push("/users/create")}
          >
            Users
          </div>
          {items}
          {logout}
        </>
      )}
    />
  );
};

// Usage in your layout
<ThemedLayoutV2 Sider={() => <CustomSider />}>
  {/* ... */}
</ThemedLayoutV2>

This will add a "Users" item at the top of your sidebar, and clicking it will navigate to /users/create instead of /users (list) How can I add an item to the Sider component?. 2. Remove or Hide the Default "Users" List Item If you want to avoid having both the default and your custom "Users" item, you can either: - Remove the list property from the "users" resource in your resources array, so Refine doesn't generate the default menu item. - Or, use the meta: { hide: true } property on the resource to hide it from the Sider. Example:

resources={[
  {
    name: "users",
    create: "/users/create",
    // list: "/users", // Remove or comment this out
    meta: { hide: true }, // Or use this to hide from Sider
  },
]}

resources={[
  {
    name: "users",
    create: "/users/create",
    // list: "/users", // Remove or comment this out
    meta: { hide: true }, // Or use this to hide from Sider
  },
]}

Summary:
- Use a custom Sider with a custom click handler for your "Users" item. - Remove or hide the default "Users" list item to avoid duplication. If you are still seeing an unexpected screen, double-check your route definitions and ensure /users/create is a valid route in your <Routes> setup. If you need to add custom items, the render prop is the recommended approach for Ant Design How can I add an item to the Sider component?. If you need more specific help, please provide the code for your Sider and route setup. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai i want access to list but not here

kapa.ai•3mo ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- If you want to access the "list" page for your resource (e.g., /users), but you do not want it to appear as a navigation item in the sidebar (Sider), you should use the meta.hide: true property in your resource definition. This will hide the resource from the Sider, but the route will still be accessible directly via URL or programmatically. Example:

import { Refine } from "@refinedev/core";

<Refine
  resources={[
    {
      name: "users",
      list: "/users",
      meta: {
        hide: true, // Hides from Sider, but /users is still accessible
      },
    },
  ]}
/>

import { Refine } from "@refinedev/core";

<Refine
  resources={[
    {
      name: "users",
      list: "/users",
      meta: {
        hide: true, // Hides from Sider, but /users is still accessible
      },
    },
  ]}
/>

With this setup, the "Users" list page (/users) will not show up in the sidebar, but you can still navigate to it directly or via code (e.g., using useNavigation().push("/users")) How to hide items from the Sider component?. If you want to add a custom sidebar item that goes to a different page (like /users/create), you can do so with a custom Sider, as described previously, while still keeping the list route accessible but hidden from the sidebar. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- You cannot directly change the default Sider's "Users" menu item to point to /users/create instead of /users (list) just by configuration. The default Sider in Refine always uses the list property of the resource for the navigation link. There is no built-in prop to override the route for a resource's main menu item while still using the default Sider rendering logic. If you want the sidebar to look and behave like the default one, but only change the "Users" menu item to go to /users/create, you must use a custom Sider or customize the default Sider using the render prop. This is the recommended approach in the documentation for such customizations. You can use the render prop of <ThemedSiderV2> to customize only the navigation logic for "Users" while keeping the rest of the sidebar default ThemedLayoutV2 Sider Prop. Summary:
- The default Sider always uses the list property for navigation. - To change the route for a specific menu item (like "Users"), you need to customize the Sider using the render prop or a custom Sider component. - There is no configuration-only way to change the route for a default Sider menu item. For more details and examples, see the documentation: ThemedLayoutV2 Sider Prop. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
