# Right Panel Widgets

### Overview

The right sidebar panel in the Newsfeed module is configurable by both administrators and users. Admins can create a default layout from the admin portal, ensuring a standardized experience for users while still allowing individual customizations.

### Right Panel Styles

When enabled, the Right Panel can be configured in one of two styles:&#x20;

The **Inline** style displays widgets directly alongside the feed, creating a more seamless and integrated viewing experience.

The **Sidebar** style displays widgets in a dedicated, collapsible side panel, making them easy to access without overcrowding the main content area.&#x20;

#### Sidebar Panel Display Behavior

The right sidebar panel is designed for optimal usability across different screen sizes in the User Portal.

The panel can be **expanded or collapsed**, and it remembers the user’s last selection.

On screen resolutions **below 1365px**, the panel opens in **overlay mode**. On higher resolutions, it expands in **inline mode**.

When collapsed, icons remain **displayed inline** for easy access.

### Adding and Managing Widgets

A maximum of **10 widgets** can be added to the right sidebar panel from the widget gallery. Each widget can be configured with specific user segment-based visibility rules and an optional header image as in the [Left Panel Widgets configurations](https://guides.mangoapps.com/admin-guide/module-settings/news-feed/left-panel-widgets#configuring-the-left-hand-widget-panel).

Admins can rearrange the order of widgets in the right sidebar panel by dragging and dropping them into the desired position.

When adding or removing widgets, admins can choose to either **override user customizations** or **retain existing user settings**.

Any changes made by admins to the right sidebar panel will be recorded in the audit log for tracking and accountability.
