I have an app named Custom that I wanted to add in the quick launch. Click on “Site Contents”. Click on “Edit Links” in the quick launch bar.
Usually when you click on a link in the QuickLaunch menu while it is in edit mode a text box is shown and you can edit the link (see second image below), but in my case this is not happening for publishing pages, hence you are not able to edit the links via the QuickLaunch menu. (see image below)
To enable edit links SharePoint 2013 – Your site shouldn’t inherit navigation from the parent site. It’s available only for the “Structural Navigation” option under “Navigation Settings” on publishing sites. You may have custom CSS deployed which hides “Edit Links”!
