The Side Bar

Looking at the left side of your Orbitype dashboard, the sidebar is an important navigation tool, enabling users to efficiently manage content, configure settings, and utilize its features. It contains the following:

• Explore

• SQL Editor

• Project Links

• My Pins

• Members

• Day/Night Mode

• Documentation

This section at the top of your side bar provides access to the main content management functions, where you can create, edit, and manage your posts, pages, or any custom content types defined in your Orbitype configuration.

The SQL Editor in the Orbitype dashboard sidebar allows users to access their database, enabling advanced data manipulation, reporting, and analysis tasks. It's recommended for users with SQL knowledge and database schema understanding.

This section provides access to various site-wide settings and configurations, including user roles and permissions, site information, API keys, and other administrative tools.

This section provides a centralized hub for project-related resources, enhancing workflows and productivity. Customized with project-specific links, it facilitates efficient communication, development, and management, making the project organized and easily navigable for all team members.

The "My Pins" feature in the Orbitype dashboard sidebar provides personalized quick access to frequently used sections, features, or content. This enhanced user efficiency and overall experience by allowing users to "pin" specific pages or functionalities.

To pin items in the Orbitype dashboard, navigate to the desired page, section, or feature, and look for the pin icon.

• Click on the pin icon, and the item may change color or appear in the "My Pins" section.

• Access your pinned items by navigating to the "My Pins" section in the sidebar, which is accessible from anywhere in the Orbitype dashboard.

• Manage your pinned items by adding, removing, or rearranging them, and unpin them by clicking on the pin icon or using the "My Pins" option.

The Orbitype dashboard sidebar uses user profiles or avatars for various purposes in the CMS environment, including identification, personalization, activity ownership, access, permissions, and communication. These avatars indicate ownership, recent edits, and content contact, enhancing workflows and team dynamics, making digital workspaces more human-centered and collaborative.

The Orbitype dashboard sidebar offers a Light and Dark mode option, enhancing visual comfort and personalization by allowing users to choose a color scheme for their dashboard, catering to various working conditions.

Users can switch between Light and Dark mode through a toggle at the bottom part of the sidebar.

This section provides links to Orbitype documentation, support resources, and possibly a community forum for getting help with using Orbitype effectively.
