New Sidebar in the HubSpot Marketing Email Editor

HubSpot has rolled out a refreshed sidebar navigation in the Marketing Email Editor, designed to enhance usability and introduce a more structured way to manage email content.

Why This Matters

For marketers, email creation needs to be efficient and intuitive. The new sidebar makes it easier to:

• Access key tools quickly
• Navigate email contents with a structured tree view
• Customize templates with improved styling options

This update simplifies the workflow, helping marketers spend less time searching for tools and more time perfecting their emails.

What’s New in the Sidebar?

1. Email Content Management

• A new Email Contents button provides a tree view of all sections and modules in your email.
• Hovering over an element highlights it in the preview.
• Clicking the “…” menu next to a section or module provides quick editing options.

2. Drag-and-Drop Enhancements

The + Add button now includes:

• Drag-and-drop modules
• Pre-built layouts
• Saved sections for reusability

3. Enhanced Template Design Options

The Template Design button now centralizes:

• Template layout formats
• Background colors, patterns and images
• Text, button and divider styles
• Spacing adjustments
