Hi - any clues anyone please? I'm lost.

I want to add an additional Settings menu to my sidebar. The existing one can't be moved to the top of the screen. I want all my most frequently used menu items on the first page to avoid too much scrolling. I'd like to do the same with the development tools too.

I'm set up like this, but the link persists in redirecting the url to /lovelace/0 or /lovelace/dashboard

panel_custom:
  - name: settings
    # url_path needs to be unique for each panel_custom config
    url_path: ***********.duckdns.org:8123/config
    sidebar_title: Settings
    sidebar_icon: mdi:cog
    module_url: /local/panel-redirect.js
    config:
      # Where you want to redirect to
      target: /config

The existing one can't be moved to the top of the screen

All of them can be moved. Long click the menu title.

Nope - settings and developer tools are pinned and cannot be moved - at least on my installation

Ah, sorry. Yes you are correct.
