Using HQ’s New Navigation

We launched a new navigation interface to make moving through HQ faster!

What’s new: A single navigation bar to make moving through HQ faster and more intuitive.

  • Series are now listed directly on the single navigation bar, eliminating the dropdown and making it easier to switch between them.
  • Settings, analytics, and other series subpages are now clearly associated with the active series. 
  • New page for multi-org users to switch between orgs and set a default.

Why it matters: With a clearer hierarchy and a more accessible series list, you can now spend less time navigating and more time managing your content in HQ.
