Structured Navigation (Publishing) not supported on "Modern" Sites/Pages/Lists/Libraries
Creating a dedicated post to track this. Lots of discussion on this from Yammer, and havent really seen this anywhere here yet.. What is the status of new "Modern" capabilities to support struct...

Brent Ellis (and others) - good news! We're finally pushing out a fix to support structured and managed navigation on modern pages/apps in classic sites.
With this update, if you have enabled publishing on a classic team site, your structured or managed navigation nodes will now render correctly in the modern pages (both global and current navigation), including any scoped or audience-targeted links. We haven’t pulled all the classic settings into the modern panels yet, so when you need to edit the navigation nodes the edit link will direct you back to the classic settings page (/areanavigationsettings.aspx).
We hope this unblocks folks who have been eager to move to the modern UX. Do try it out let us know if you have any questions. Thanks!

It seems that whilst latest fix has resolved a number of issues with the global navigation, including the "Page not found" link showing, it appears we are now seeing a 0 character being added to the end of each global navigation node. Additionally our global navigation appears to have stopped working completely when a user clicks on the link.
Is anyone else seeing this? We've raised a ticket with MS to investigate.

Yeah I am seeing it as well, I am still seeing the page not found link as well in my dev tenant. Hopefully the navigation will be sorted out soon, wouldn't mind using the new lists and libraries but wont roll it out until this works as it should in my dev tenant.

What is going on?

The same thing just happened on one of our Site Collections and all Sub Sites, Global Navigation links have all been replaced with links to local items and appended with a '0' when the modern experience appears...
I logged a ticket and Microsoft said they are aware. Not too happy as the issue is on our executive board's site :(
- Jeremy ColemanMar 08, 2017Copper ContributorI've ended up creating a top level folder called Other and moved all of the problem pages and sites into it.
In order to do so I first had to enable Show Subsites and Show Pages under the global navigation option, that's what allowed me to see the items that shouldn't be showing up. Even though they were marked as hidden they were still visible, so by putting them under the Other Heading they are at least out of site.
