Add dropdown of authorized subwikis in header.navbar - Customize Flamingo Theme

Hi XWiki Community,

I am Luc, responsible of my company wiki (with XWiki SAS Pro Contract, instance in version 15.10.8) and IT project manager.

We are using some subwikis to separate the content in independant spaces. Each subwiki uses the customized global theme (same header.navbar, same company logo…), ensuring a style coherence but we want to facilitate the navigation between subwikis.

We want to have a dropdown (next to the company logo) with the name of current subwiki and a selector to move to another authorized subwiki. How to do it ?

Here is a mockup of the rendering :

Here is a snippet of the associated HTML code :

<!-- Company logo before ... -->
<div id="xwikimainmenu">
  <ul class='nav navbar-nav navbar-left'>
    <li class="dropdown subwiki-navigation" data-placement="bottom" data-trigger="manual" id="tmSubwikiNavigation">
      <a class="icon-navbar dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" role="button" title="Sous-wiki">
        <!-- Name of current subwiki -->
        Main Wiki <span class="fa fa-caret-down" aria-hidden="true" style="margin-left: 0.5rem;"></span>
      </a>
      <ul class="dropdown-menu">
        <!-- List of authorized subwikis -->
        <li><a href="/xwiki/wiki/Main/">Main Wiki</a></li>
        <li><a href="/xwiki/wiki/SubwikiA/">Subwiki A</a></li>
        <li><a href="/xwiki/wiki/SubwikiB/">Subwiki B</a></li>
      </ul>
    </li>
  </ul>
<!-- ... .navbar-right after ... -->
</div>

Of course, only available and authorized (for the current user) subwikis should be listed.

Bonus : It would be perfect if the dropdown is disabled in case of single available wiki.

We are using the Flamingo Theme and I identified the file menus_macros.vm but I do not know if it is recommanded/possible to change it and to add some (velocity ?) code.

Thank you in advance for your precious help!

Best Regards,
Luc
