ionic2 with angular js 2 side menu icon not appearing after navCtrl push

Question

I'm working in ionic2 , here i'm having a login page and on it will redirect to a side menu with swipe tabs page**HomePage output home.html**. I've used **this.nav.push('HomePage')**to redirect from login page to home page. But I'm not getting the menu icon, it disappears and back icon is showing up.

Can anyone help me out?

This is happening because you used nav.push instead of nav.setRoot. In Ionic, pushing a page adds it to a stack, and the back button pops it off the stack.

You want to use setRoot here:

this.nav.setRoot('HomePage');
