Ok but the problem is that Golf is the only activity present in the main menu. Why Golf and not Swim, Run... ?
The watch knows all the activities we practice (or not). It is completely incoherent to have…
Here's how I did it. I user this Chrome/Edge extension called Tampermonkey. This lets you inject Javascript into ANY page. Basically, you create your own custom userscript (you can just copy mine below).
Here's what the script does:
I tell it to only run this script if it matches any page URL that starts with https://connect.garmin.com/modern*.
I then target a page element that identifies the golf element on the page (it was the golf icon itself) and then I traverse the DOM tree to get the parent list item and then I hide it. Works like a charm. :-)
This should work unless Garmin decides to change the name of the golf icon in the markup.
// ==UserScript== // @name Golf Begone // @namespace http://tampermonkey.net/ // @version 0.1 // @description Because Garmin doesn't listen to its customers // @author You // @match https://connect.garmin.com/modern* // @icon https://www.google.com/s2/favicons?sz=64&domain=garmin.com // @grant none // ==/UserScript== (function() { 'use strict'; // Look for the golf icon and then get the parent elements so we can hide it. Do it this in case they change the order. var iDontWantGolf = document.querySelector(".icon-activity-golf").parentNode.parentNode; iDontWantGolf.display = none; })();
So.. 7 years later. Has removing the golf tab made possible now?
Same question. I can't remove golf or other items on the main menu. I can't add any either as it says the menu is full and something must be removed first.
No. It has been over 7 years, almost 20000 views and 160 replies, and no response from Garmin. It's just absurd!
I want to remove Golf from Garmin Connect Web. Yes, we can use overrides, scripts and whatnot, but there's still a golf menu in the Garmin Connect app, and over 1GB(!) of unremovable golf maps on my Fenix 7.
Why not have an obligatory windsurfing menu? And some curling while you're at it?
Hello, the same golf menu iten and scroll list came after installing the finix watch. I using only the cycling and like to remove the golf iten as well. Dit you find an possibility??
Bonjour
Je n'ai jamais trouvé comment supprimer Golf du menu principal, je n'en fais pas, je n'ai pas l'intention d'essayer, je préférerais mettre une autre activité à la place.
Sauriez-vous me dire comment faire ?
Merci d'avance
5 years later I don't find a way to remove Golf. Very sad.
New to Garmin, thanks for any help.
I'm looking at the web version of the Connect app, and the sidebar is full of things I don't want. Actually, I'd like to never see the word "Golf." Can I remove that menu, or any other menu from that bar? So much seems to be customizable, but not that. And "Hike" is not mentioned at all.
Anyway - can we remove a menu? Thanks.
It is not customizable, but you can remove it with a custom rule of a browser adblocker plugin such as the uBlock Origin.
