🎉 Layouts & Nav List editor for the new site/community experience are here!

If you are using the new community experience, all your sites will now have a Layout editor.

Layout editor allows you to customize the header and footer of your site. You can control the styling as well as the content of the header and footer.

Check out our help guide to learn more about the new layout and navigation editor.

You can get to the layout editor by clicking on 'Layout' in the '...' menu on the admin page of your site.

If you're viewing your live site, you can also get to the layout editor by clicking on 'Edit layout' from the Simplero admin dropdown menu that shows up when you hover on the top left edge of your site.

When using the Layout editor, or the new Page builder for your site's pages, you will now also be able to edit your navigation from it. Just click on the hamburger menu on the top-left and you'll see the new navigation editor.

P.S: Your sites will now have a footer, just like sites built on the old experience, so you might want to hide them if you really don't want them for some reason.

You'll find this option on the Membership Site > Configure tab > Site URL section.
