Testing back and forth with MediaWiki vs BlueSpice various extension and with regards to MenuEditor, is this a native extension which only works with BlueSpice? Asking since I’m pre-configurating a native MediaWiki which later will be migrated to BlueSpice and were the MenuEditor extension was one feature which users liked.

No, MenuEditor is designed to be BlueSpice independent. It only _integrates_ into BlueSpice, but does not _require_ it. Be aware that it still required installation via `composer` due to some external dependencies.

Ok, thanks, did install it using composer, and verified that it shows up under the Version page. But, not sure were I would actually find the MenuEdit features once installed and setup.

You need to navigate to MediaWiki:Sidebar and click the “edit” link. It should provide you with the MenuEditor, rather than with the WikiTextEditor
