Hi ,

I have set up NR Dashboard on one of our environments.

But for some reason i don't see the hamburger icon for side menu.  
Nor do i see the side menu which allows me to navigate between groups.

I checked the forum. Saw that generally its suggested to move to latest Node version or Dashboard version.

My Node.js is on v16.13.2  
Dashboard version is 3.1.5  
My NR is on 2.1.4 on that env. Should this anyways impact the Dashboard ?

Any clues ?

Check in the Dashboard Options \> Site in the right hand panel that you have Show Titlebar selected.

As @Colin mentioned!  
Dashboard-\>Site-\>Options-\>select "Show the title bar":

This only it show when you have two or more Tabs configured on your Dashboad:

I think @SandeepA means the drop down hamburger menu, which you can't get to if the title is hidden.
