Pinning elements and sections
Pin elements to a container, section or page so they're always within reach for site visitors. This is a great tool to increase the visibility of important content as well as navigation elements like your menu.
Are there elements / sections that can't be pinned?
To pin an element or a section:
- Select the relevant section or element.
- Click the Open Inspector arrow
at the top right of the Editor. - Scroll down to Position.
- Select Pinned from the Position type drop-down.
- (Elements only) Choose where to pin the element under Pin to:
- Container / Cell: The element stays fixed in place, relative to its parent container or cell.
- Section: The element stays fixed in place as visitors scroll up and down the section.
Note: It's only possible to pin one section per page. - Page: The element stays visible and fixed in place as visitors scroll up and down the entire page.
By default, a pinned section overlaps the section below it.
Removing the pinned position
You can always revert elements and sections back to the default position. This means they are no longer pinned to the screen, they simply stay in their position.
To remove the pinned position:
- Select the relevant section or element.
- Click the Open Inspector arrow at the top right of the Editor.
- Scroll down to Position.
- Select Default from the Position type drop-down.
