The Sidebar, or the left-side menu in your Sitebeat Editor, is locked in place by default. This is to allow quick access to all the editor's Features, Blocks, and other Settings.
If you need more space to work with in building your website, you can easily unlock the Sidebar to hide it. While hidden, you can still view the Sidebar and all its options by simply hovering your mouse pointer over the left side of your Sitebeat Editor.
Follow the instructions below to unlock or lock the Sidebar in your Sitebeat Editor:
- Log In to access the Sitebeat dashboard.
- Under My Sites, click the Edit Site option of the website that you wish to manage.
- On your Site Editor, click on the Unlock Sidebar icon at the bottom of the left-side menu. Once unlocked, your Sidebar will instantly be hidden from the page.
Note: To lock the left-side menu back in place, hover your mouse pointer over the left side of your Sitebeat Editor, and then click on the Lock Sidebar icon at the bottom of the menu that appears.
Note: If you want to edit a new site, you have to unpublish the current website and make your new site as your primary website.
Under My Sites, click the [...] Ellipsis Icon on the top-right corner of the website to unpublish the current site. Click Unpublish Site, and then click Yes, Unpublish to confirm.
Under My Domains, click the [...] Ellipsis Icon of the website that you want to replace as your primary website, then click Replace Primary. In the pop-up window, select the domain of the new website in the New Primary Domain list, then click Replace Primary. You can also click the Domains tab under My Sites to perform the necessary steps mentioned.
You can now edit the new site that you wish to manage.
You’ve just learned how to lock and unlock the Sidebar on your website.
