How to add Filament Shield into a custom group in sidebar navigation?

I have a group set via a property: protected static ?string $navigationGroup = "Settings"; that I use in every resource file to put them in the menu category Settings in my sidebar. But I don't know where should I put this $navigationGroup property , in which file so it is moved to that ctegory as other resources with $navigationGroup set to Settings. Because currently it is in its own group in the uppermost parent level. In the config file I can only set true or false like:
'navigation_sort' => -1,
'navigation_badge' => true,
'navigation_group' => true,
'navigation_sort' => -1,
'navigation_badge' => true,
'navigation_group' => true,
In other words, I have this:
Dashboard
Filament Shield
Settings
Users
Some other menu item
...
Something Else
...
Dashboard
Filament Shield
Settings
Users
Some other menu item
...
Something Else
...
And I want this:
Dashboard
Settings
Filament Shield
Users
Some other menu item
...
Something Else
...
Dashboard
Settings
Filament Shield
Users
Some other menu item
...
Something Else
...

The author of the plugin responded with the answer in the shield channel, but I will put it here too, for posterity. So, it's actually super easy at least for my needs. You need to publish the translation files of Filament Shield like: php artisan vendor:publish --tag="filament-shield-translations" and then in the filament-shield.php file (inside your language directory so i.e. lang/vendor/filament-shield/de/filament-shield.php) of your language that you are using you change 'nav.group' => 'Settings' where Settings will be the exact string you are using as a group name in protected static ?string $navigationGroup = "Settings" so If you have protected static ?string $navigationGroup = "Page settings" it will be 'nav.group' => 'Page settings'...

#shield would be a better place to ask this specifically?
