How to fix navigation header for SharePoint associated sites to a parent hub site

Question

Hello all,

I have a parent hub (deltaoe) and a few associated sites.

I want to setup the navigation header for the parent hub as follows:

When I go to the associated sites, the header is the same but there is an extra line below:

I assume the root cause for this was previously, the doepl site was also a Hub site with its own navigation (Home, Entity, Project). Later, I unregistered it as a hub and put under deltaoe.

I tried registering doepl as a hub again and cleared the navigation header empty, but when I unregister and put it under deltaoe again, the same (Home, Entity, Project) remains.

This problems also affects other associated sites under deltaoe, which is newly created and has never been a hub before.

I want all associated sites to have only the deltaoe header (ACCT, BD,...). Please help! TIA!

Hi @Camha Nguyen,

Thank you for posting in this community.

In this article: Unregister a site as a hub site,

This means that the old navigation bar in your site should be deleted as normal. It is very likely that your problem happened by chance. Therefore, I suggest you try the following:

1.Are other users facing the same problem? View through another computer or account.

2.You could try to clear browser cache then restart it.

3.Try to use a different browser or your browser's InPrivate mode to see if the same error occurs.

4.Contact your SharePoint administrator to download SharePoint Online Management PowerShell, and then use the PowerShell command to unregister the site as a hub site. Please replace your site name and tenant name.

Connect-SPOService -Url https://contoso-admin.sharepoint.com
Unregister-SPOHubSite -Identity https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/Marketing

If it is successful, it will be like this:

If it is wrong, it will report an error, so that we can also check whether the original site has been successfully unregistered as the hub site.
