53° has 3 main parts: the sidebar on the left to move between areas, your page in the middle, and the actions sidebar on the right for the things you reach for all day. Here's what's where.
The sidebar
From top to bottom:
- Your organisation. Select its name to open the organisation menu: Manage organisation (owners and admins), Switch organisation, Invitations if you have any waiting, and Create new organisation.
- The main areas: Dashboard, Mission Control, Brain Space, Planner, Inbox, Contacts, Marketing (Forms, Lists, Newsletters and Sequences), Sales (Deals and Proposals) and Reports. You only see the areas your role gives you access to.
- Projects. Your pinned projects, and View all for the full list.
- Help: Support, Help docs and Feedback. See Get help.
- Get started: the tutorials for each area, with which you have done. See Tutorials.
- You. Select your name for Manage account, Theme and Sign out.
To hide or show the sidebar, select the sidebar button at the top left, or press ⌘B (Ctrl+B on Windows).
Pin a project to the sidebar
- Open the project.
- Select Project actions (the ⋮ button) at the top, then Pin project.
Or right-click the project's card or row and choose Pin to sidebar.
You can pin up to 5 projects. To remove one, hover over it in the sidebar, select the More button (⋯) and choose Unpin project. The same menu has View project and Delete project.
The header
Along the top of every page:
- Breadcrumbs show where you are. Select any earlier step to go back to it.
- Search opens the command palette. See Search and shortcuts.
- Activity shows who's in your organisation, who's active now and when others were last seen, with a shortcut to message them. It's hidden if you're the only person in your organisation.
- Create new adds a Task, Contact, Project or Deal. You only see the options your role allows.
The actions sidebar
The right-hand sidebar keeps your everyday tools one click away, whatever page you're on. Choose a tab along its top:
- Tasks: your organisation's tasks.
- Chat: conversations with your team.
- Docs: your organisation's documents.
- Files: your organisation's files.
- Logs: a timeline of changes across your organisation.
- Notifications: what needs your attention. See Notifications.
A dot on Chat or Notifications means something new is waiting. The sidebar remembers the last tab you used.
Press ⌘J (Ctrl+J on Windows) to open or close it. On smaller screens it opens over the page from Actions in the header.
Your dashboard
Dashboard is your home page. It shows:
- Your Mission Control card.
- Today, from your planner: what's on now and what's up next.
- Overview: any report cards you've pinned with Pin to dashboard on the Reports page. Drag them into the order you like.
- Tasks: tasks assigned to you that are overdue or due today, with the longest overdue first. An overdue task stays here, marked with the date it was due, until you finish it or give it a new date.
- Projects: the open projects you lead.
The dashboard reopens on the tab you last picked.
On your phone
On a small screen, the header's controls move to a toolbar at the bottom: Dashboard, Search, Actions, Activity and Create new (the + button). Once you scroll, a Back to top button joins it.
Good to know
- Your layout choices, such as whether each sidebar is open, follow you across browsers. See Profile and preferences.
- The version number at the bottom of each page opens what's new in 53°.
