How to remove "Zorin Appearance" from Menu Lite?

You also need xfce4-goodies. Just installing the plugi won't add the whisker menu.n

@swarfendor437 When I installed whisker menu in Zorin lite, it worked without xfce4 goodies.

Basically I currently use Arc Menu, but it's only available on GNOME, as far as I know. Don't know if there is a port to XFCE.

Because it is a Gnome Extension, I would doubt that.

Well it didn't work for me on the VM I installed until I added the goodies via Synaptic Package Manager and in the description window it listed all the goodies, including whisker menu.

@swarfendor437 I also thought at first that the installation failed because I couldn't see the Whisker menu on the screen. It had to be added to the panel first.

SOLVED!

These entries are hardcoded into libzorinmenulite.so

Path: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xfce4/panel/plugins/

Downloaded the source code and commented lines that contains "quicklinks".
https://launchpad.net/~zorinos/+archive/ubuntu/stable/+sourcefiles/xfce4-zorinmenulite-plugin/1.1.4-1/xfce4-zorinmenulite-plugin_1.1.4-1.tar.xz

Compiled again and...

If anyone interested, i made upload of compiled bin:

Make backup of original file and put in place.

Cheers from Brazil! :brazil:

Great detective work @brunok ! I would not have known where to begin! And 200 blue jewels for sharing (jewels are what we used to quote in the very old forum - a bit like the old 'java beans' rewards!)
