Sharepoint 2013 - Hide left Navigation, but not in People and Groups

Question

I tried to hide the left Navigation bar and it works without problems. The only problem now is that when I go under: Site settings > User Permissions > People and Groups It hides me my Groups I created there on the left side. Is there any possibility of hiding the left navigation bar in all sites and leaving "People and Groups" alone? I made my own css file and used this to hide the Navigation bar: MyOwnCss.css: ``` #sideNavBox { DISPLAY: none } #contentBox { margin-left: 0px } ``` Best regards Andrew

Solution:

Try below css (instead of yours):

```
.ms-core-sideNavBox-removeLeftMargin { display: none } /* hide only quick links */
#contentBox { margin-left: 0px } /* make content take full page width */
```

Explaination:

Div with id `sideNavBox` is the main container of left navigation box. But it is not the actual container that holds the quick links.

Actually quick links is contained by another div with class `ms-core-sideNavBox-removeLeftMargin` which is a child div of div with id `sideNavBox`.

Now people and groups left panel items are not contained in this div with class `ms-core-sideNavBox-removeLeftMargin` but is instead contained in div above it with class `ms-ql-additionaltopsection` (as shown in above image).

So our solution above hides this actual quicklinks containing child div:

.ms-core-sideNavBox-removeLeftMargin { display: none } /* hide only quick links */

instead of parent container

#sideNavBox { display: none } /* hide left navigation box */
