                    Ralf, thanks for your report. Assigning to Sam as navigation component lead.

                    I'm sure I came across another similar report before, but I've searched and searched and just can't find it! If anyone does, please link the issues.

                    Hi guys,

                    I found 5 minutes free and created a setting that turns the sections in the navigation into links.
                    Please please please if you want this to go in vote for it, otherwise as it is introducing a section and not all people like this functionality it may not be accepted.

                    Also I need a peer-review and someone to test wouldn't hurt.

                    Cheers
                    Sam

                    Hi guys,

                    I noticed this enhancement has disappeared in version 2.3 - it's a great feature!
                    I did a bit of digging into the git repository and noticed the 'navlinkcoursesections' entry disappeared from the admin/settings/appearance.php somewhere around between 2012-March-11 and 2012-May-04.

                    Does anybody know why?

                    Thanks!

                    Cheers,
                    Andy

                    Hi Andy. Apparently it's because it is now always on - see Michael's comments in another tracker issue here MDL-34424
