Can I modify my shared menu for a particular shop?

Shared menu objects do not have a separate version for each shop. If you edit a shared tab, column, item group or item, the change applies to every shop associated with that tab, even when you work in a single-shop context.

For example, changing the colour of a tab created in the All shops context changes it for every shop it is associated with. Switching contexts does not create an independent copy.

See the FAQ about creating a shared menu to understand the initial associations.

Add tabs specific to one shop

Select the relevant shop context, then create new tabs and their contents. They are added to the shared menu but are associated only with that shop. Changes to them remain specific to that shop as long as the tabs are not associated with other shops.

You can find these tabs from that shop’s context or from All shops. Check which object you are editing as well as the displayed context.

Prepare fully independent menus

If the shared menu needs to be replaced with separate menus, first prepare a backup or export the menu. Then recreate the menus in each relevant shop’s context.

Deleting a tab also deletes its columns and their contents. The contents of a shared tab are common to its associated shops: do not treat a single-shop context as protection against deleting those contents. Have your integrator check the replacement plan before deleting shared objects.
