    Description

      Identified within MDL-72091, The removal of the links within lib/templates/settings_link_page.mustache causes many behat failures due to removing ways to navigate to specific pages. 

      An example of this is trying to add new enrolment methods to a course. Currently to do so you have to go to course -> course administration -> Users -> Enrolment methods (Linked header on the left side) if this flow is broken we could only see existing enrolment methods unless users knew the specific URL to add and manage enrolment methods.

      As such it was decided to treat this issue as a follow up to the styling changes is it has a bigger impact than applying styling to the existing templates etc.

      One option to rectify this issue could be to add the links as new menu items as required so that existing pages can still easily be navigated to until a better solution is found.

      Cheers,
