We’ve been using Builder with Next.js registering custom components and everything has worked fine.

I need to hide some legacy custom components, so I give them the hideFromInsertMenu: true option but it doesn’t make any difference.

Any idea what I could be doing wrong?

Hello @miguel.carrillo,

Welcome to the [Builder.io](http://Builder.io) forum!

We appreciate your engagement with the platform. Currently, we are unable to reproduce the reported issue related to `hideFromInsertMenu: true`. This functionality appears to be working as expected on our end.

To assist you more effectively, could you please confirm the version of the Builder/React SDK you are currently using?

@builder.io/react@3.1.1  
@builder.io/sdk@2.1.1

Could it be related to the components being in a custom Menu? Created with

```auto
Builder.register('insertMenu', {
      name: tabName,
      items: Object.keys(components).map(key => ({
        name: components[key].name,
      })),
    });

```

Hello @miguel.carrillo,

The custom menu must be the reason `hideFromInsertMenu: true` not working. Does it work for any component that is not in the custom menu?

Would have to make a test. I don’t have any component outside a custom menu
