The Self Help widget might hide parts of the application, hindering visibility and accessibility for users. To overcome this issue, Whatfix enables you to reposition the widget for better visibility.
Note:
- End users can change the widget position and Whatfix remembers the new position on the next visit.
- When end users reposition the Self Help widget, other Self Help widgets on different pages or applications also move to the new location.
- The Self Help widgets on other pages and applications appear in the new position only in the following two scenarios:
- If end users have the same user role
- If the Self Help widget is present in the same browser
- The Self Help widget resets to the default position when the browser cache is cleared.
