The site owner does not turn modules on
Court auctions, commerce, booking, static hosting, and AI SEO, chat, and social posts are modules the platform licenses.
The platform turns them on in the site admin. There is no switch in the site owner's admin for turning a module on yourself. If the business needs one, contact platform support or your project contact.
News, the docs center, and custom content types are the same: the platform decides whether the entrance is open. If the sidebar does not show them, contact a platform admin. There is no hidden switch to hunt for.
When does the sidebar show an item?
Both of these:
- The site has the module turned on
- Your account can at least read that feature
If either is missing, the sidebar hides the item, or opening it sends you away.
Common modules and the default permissions
These are the usual defaults. Your site's roles win if they differ.
| Module or permission | Owner | Editor | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Court auctions | Can edit | Can edit | Case overrides, agents, and how listings are shown |
| Commerce | Can edit | Can edit | Products, orders and inquiries, ordinary store settings. Online checkout and inquiry-only are licensed separately by the platform. |
| Payment credentials | Can edit | Usually none | Keys such as ECPay. Owner only, by default. |
| Booking | Can edit | Can edit | Services, resources, and the booking list |
| Static hosting | Can edit | Can edit | Upload a zip, preview before publish, its own subdomain, redirects, CDN, maintenance, and a custom domain |
| AI SEO | Can edit | Can edit | Health checks, monitoring, and the rest. Usage or plan limits may apply. |
| Subscriptions, if on | Mostly the owner | Depends on the role | Plans and member subscriptions |
A viewer can usually look, and not change.
A useful way to hold it
- Module: whether the platform gave the site this ability
- Permission: whether this account may use it once it is given
Both have to be true before the sidebar and the feature are fully available.
