I'm working on creating a team website at work. I would like to make a nav greyed out such that when I click it, nothing happens. It seems that the default nav options always link to an empty page.
Any assistance is much appreciated. I am using sharepoint online for site creation.
Thanks.
Using IE F12 developer tools to check if some JavaScript error occurs or not.
And provide some screenshots for further research.

Is there a way to insert/add logo before the top navigation in SharePoint ? Currently we have Home link and we want to replace it using a logo instead.
Thanks!
Assume you are talking about SharePoint online development. I suggest using command set in SharePoint Framework.
The Command Set is the only type of SharePoint Framework Extension for which you can configure icons.
When deploying Command Sets, you can choose whether their commands should be visible on:
The command bar (location: ClientSideExtension.ListViewCommandSet.CommandBar)
The context menu (location: ClientSideExtension.ListViewCommandSet.ContextMenu)
Both (location: ClientSideExtension.ListViewCommandSet)
You can use an external icon image or a base64-encoded image as your icon image.

Also, there is a third party option. it will be less work just to change a icon but also limited choice of icons which they've provided.
ShortPoint can customize SharePoint Global Navigation and allows you to utilize ShortPoint Icons in your navigation.
The result will be something like this. Reference here.
So depend on your need, SPFx will give you more freedom and Shortpoint will take less work.
As for SharePoint On-premises. I think these below links can help you.

I have created a SharePoint site using Office 365 and I am trying to get the menu to show down the left hand side as currently it is along the top of the page. The site layout is set to Seattle but the menu does not show. Some of the articles I've read talk about clicking on Navigation link in site settings but I cannot see this link. Not sure if there is something I need to enable.
How can I get this to show?

Thanks
You could enable publishing feature, you'll see the setting.
I have created a "Team Site" on SharePoint online. When I edit a site page, I am not able to view any option of adding a web part on the page. All I can see are following options. Please click the link to see the options. I don't see any web part option there.
I believe there are some features that need to be activated on this site collection. Does anybody know which features need to be activated here to enable web parts on the page?
Unfortunately, WebPart doesn't work in New Experience. You need to be in Classic View to add the WebPart.
You can't add web part to New experience mode Sharepoint page. At least not for now. But you can create a page in Classic mode, it's the same as it was in SP2013.

I faced an interesting problem. I have a sharepoint 2007 website. I created a new masterpage and changed default design. So i dont use default.master.
I add site actions menu to masterpage. it renders on google chrome successfully. But there is a problem on IE. I cant see a div or text related with site actions menu on html source of IE.
So what could be reason of this problem?
I am almost sure that this is a probled related to unattended removal of some javascript from master page that handles IE compatibility.
Try to compare your master and the default one and to play with removed lines.
I am trying to connect a filter web part with a document list web part but the popup showing the options for filtering is blank.
What I am doing. I have, as I described before, a QueryStringFilter web part (MOSS) and I want it to send the filter parameter to my document list web part (out of the box SharePoint).
I go in to the edit mode of the site.
I click the filter drop down menu and click to "Connect-Send filter string to-document list"
The popup appears but is blank.
After 5 minutes of waiting the popup is still blank.
I am using IE 8 with MOSS 2007. I have tried Firefox and Chrome but get the same behavior. Have any of you experienced this and do you have a solution?
Thanks
Hope you have MOSS with SP2, because IE8 support is included starting from SP2.
If that's not the issue, then you may want to help yourself with SharePoint Designer (it's free).
Now I get my popup. I think I solved it by manipulating the security settings in IE but I can't say for sure. It just startet working. Maybe it was after a restart of my computer or just IE, the settings doesn't really take effect before you restart the entire client...
