      Managing Your Sidebar Widgets

      How to add or remove sidebar widgets from your website

      When visiting a website, you may have noticed a section to the side of the main content. This space is often filled with various small boxes, called sidebar widgets, that provide additional information and functionality for visitors. Sidebar widgets offer visitors quick access to important information and can encourage engagement with the website.

      Sidebar Widgets are only available on specific website themes, and if your theme does not include space for these widgets, they will not be available to you.

      Managing Your Sidebar Widgets

      To add or remove sidebar widgets on your website:

      1. Navigate to Website > Sidebar Widgets:

      2. Here, you can select which widgets to display on your homepage and/or other pages (internal pages) by selecting the checkbox next to the widget.

        Note: All of the content in these widgets have been approved by compliance, and once you click "Publish," the changes will go live immediately. This is not the case for custom widgets.
