Hello everyone,
can you move the sidebar tools to the footer in the wordpress backend?

Thanks and Happy Holidays

Hi there,

I think it used to be possible but I just checked and couldn’t do it either.

Can you check with WordPress support team?

Thanks Leo, I don’t think it depends on wordpress, because it only happens to me with generatepress.

Hi there,

GP does set its metaboxes in the sidebar. There is good reason for that, as in the past meta boxes below the editor have caused issues. You should also be able to drag meta boxes to below the editor / into sidebar – but its really buggy.

Found this article which provides a weird method of achieving that:

Hi David, i just want to move only custom field box. The method works well, thanks.

Glad to hear that!
