Arranging Your Tools & Sections
Reorder, pin and hide the entries in a hub so the three things you actually do are at the top — on every device.
Different accounts use Seayora differently. A landlord with thirty sections under Operations does not use them equally, and neither does a contractor with nineteen tools. You can put the ones you use at the top and take the ones you never touch out of the way.
Sections that hold several pages
Some Operations sections are several pages that answer one question, shown together with a row of tabs at the top. Each page keeps its own address, so a link, a bookmark or an email that names one still opens it, inside its section. The same sections and the same tab names are on the website, the iPhone and Android.
| Section | What is inside |
|---|---|
| Rent | Collections, Payment plans, Housing assistance and Disputes (chargebacks) |
| Utilities | Resident setup — who puts each utility in their name — and Billing, a building’s bills split onto rent |
| Applications | Applicants and the Rental criteria they are held to (and, on the phones, households applying together) |
| Assets | Equipment and preventive work, and Codes & scanning — the labels and the scanner that find it |
| Smart building | Devices, Cameras, and Doors & network |
| Resident feedback | Pulse — how residents feel about each building — and Surveys about their repairs |
| Automations | Rules, and the Agents that answer prospects and residents |
On the phones, Specials & concessions holds the concessions on your leases and the move-in specials on your listings, and a management company’s Compliance holds the portfolio view beside each building’s. An employee sees only the tabs their permissions give them; a section none of whose pages is theirs is not shown at all.
Where to find it
- On the web: the "Arrange" pill at the end of a hub’s section strip.
- On the iPhone and on Android: "Arrange" at the top of the Tools tab.
What you can do
| Action | What it does |
|---|---|
| Reorder | Moves an entry up or down. On the iPhone you can drag; elsewhere use the up and down buttons, which also work with a screen reader. |
| Pin | Lifts an entry into a "Pinned" group at the very top, above every other section. |
| Hide | Takes an entry out of the list. Nothing else changes. |
| Reset | Puts everything back in the standard order with nothing hidden. |
Changes save as you make them. There is no separate Save button, and no confirmation step to forget.
Hiding is not a permission
Hiding an entry removes it from that list and does nothing else. The page still exists, search still finds it, a link still opens it, and anybody else on the account is unaffected. If you need to actually stop someone reaching something, that is a role and permission question, not a layout one — see Roles & Accounts.
It follows you between devices
The arrangement belongs to your account, not to the device you made it on. Reorder your tools on your phone in the morning and the website opens the same way that afternoon. A layout you had to redo on every device is one nobody keeps up to date.
New features still appear
Anything added to Seayora after you arranged your hub is added to the end of your list rather than being left out. You will never miss a new capability because you tidied up last year.
Frequently asked questions
Does hiding a tool stop other people on my account seeing it?
No. The arrangement is yours alone. Everybody else on the account keeps their own, and hiding changes nothing about what anyone is allowed to do.
Can I still open something I have hidden?
Yes — search finds it, a saved link opens it, and any button elsewhere in the product that points at it still works. Unhide it from the same Arrange screen whenever you like.
What happens to my arrangement if my role changes?
Entries that no longer apply are simply ignored, and the tools your new role brings appear at the end of the list. Nothing breaks and nothing has to be reset.
Why is there no Arrange button on some hubs?
It is offered where there is enough to arrange. On a hub with only two or three entries the control would cost more attention than it saves.
