The Side Navbar is an option for the Korbyt CMS that replaces the standard Mega Menu drop-down and other top navigation icons with an expandable Side Navbar.

Using the Side Navbar

Expanded or Collapsed Views

The Navbar can be expanded to show the full names of the sections by clicking the arrow at the top

In both views, the navigation options are divided into sections

In Collapsed View, hovering over an icon will expand the options it includes, and can be selected

In Expanded View, a dropdown arrow is shown that will expand the options included in that section

Product Selection and Dashboard

If you subscribe to multiple Korbyt products, Signage, Mobile, and/or Booking, you will first select the product line you are controlling at the top of the Navbar

The product selection will change the options that are shown in the Navbar product-specific section

Also at the top of the Navbar is the Dashboard icon, which will return you to the tenantโ€™s dashboard page
