Edit Mode

We introduced the pencil icon to edit the sidebar and now expanding the same edit capabilities throughout our platform by introducing Edit Mode.

Last Updated: May 30, 2023

Where can I find Edit mode?

Edit mode will be available from the Profile dropdown menu on the community landing page, home page and campaign page.

Who would be able to use Edit mode?

The Global Administrators and the Custom Administrators (depending on the permissions they have). Edit Mode: Landing Page. Simply hitting the Edit mode button would make the editable sections available for editing. Uneditable sections would be grayed out.

 

Why use Edit Mode?

The inline editing can improve overall user experience by reducing the number of clicks and actions needed to make changes, making editing more intuitive and streamlined. By editing content in its original context, users can ensure that changes are made accurately and properly. This can help to reduce errors and improve the quality of content
