+Notes:
+
+- multiple consecutive dividers are removed by the theme if no other content is in between them
+- if you redefine the `homelinks` like displayed above, you have to define a Hugo menu to replicate the implicit default configuration
+- for the `shortcuts` if the implicit default configuration is active, the value for `disableTitle` will be determined by your [configuration for `disableShortcutsTitle`](#predefined-shortcuts-menu).
