Let’s get oriented in your new workspace.
Sidebar #
Down the Left of your Screen is a grey area that will display some of your Pages and other information for your Workspace, this is the Sidebar and it has some different sections (1,2 & 3).
The central area of your Workspace will display the contents of a Page (or 2 Pages if you make use of Split Screen)
In the top Right of your Workspace there are some Useful Links (4) and Page Menus (5).
Let’s take a closer look at those 5 areas:
1 Workspace Information #
In the top left of your Workspace, there’s some general workspace information. The Name of your Workspace will display, and if you have more than 1 workspace, you can move between them using the Dropdown arrow.
Underneath your Workspace Name is All Pages. Head here to search through your entire workspace.
To the right of the blue 1 in the image, and above the Title of your Current Open Page, there’s breadcrumbs showing the location of your current Page in your workspace (in the image below: Writing Inspiration/Resources). You can click any of the pages in this breadcrumb link to navigate to them.
2 Your Pages #
The middle of your sidebar will display your Pages. New Pages can be added into your Workspace using the blue plus button at the top of this section
All Pages you add through the Blue Plus Button are added into your Sidebar and will display as a list here. Find out more about how to rearrange and organise your Pages here.
3 Workspace Options #
Underneath all your Pages there’s a dedicated section for workspace options including Users, Settings and Archive. From here you can make changes to your workspace
Users #
Users will display a Table with all the users added into your Workspace. Add further Properties here if you would like to
