Re-using sidebar menu

I’m working on my first Adalo app (moving from Softr). Impressed so far, but struggling with one basic thing.

My app uses two different sidebars - one for internal users, one for external. This all works fine. I can’t work out how to reuse the sidebars though. Every time create a new page and add a sidebar I have to set-up all up from scratch everytime (then have an additional one to maintain). I’m clearly missing a step.

Can anyone either explain or point me to a useful help doc. thanks.

Hello :wave:

It’s not ideal, Adalo really needs an app wide setting for Nav. But this is what you can do meanwhile. Have one ‘master’ nav screen. This is where you make all your changes to the nav bar.

The kicker is that you have to then copy and paste it to each screen in your app. Every time a change is made to the nav :roll_eyes:

Thanks for the reply. That’s exactly what I’m currently doing. I had just assumed it was wrong as it is such bad practice!

What a weird omission in such a polished system.
