Accessing Your GoHighLevel Dashboard
Before you can edit anything, you must first open the correct dashboard inside GoHighLevel.

Understanding GoHighLevel Dashboard Widgets
A widget on a GoHighLevel dashboard is a visual block that shows data, such as leads, opportunities, or other metrics. Each widget can be customized to display information in different ways.
Typical widget characteristics include:
-
Title or name for the metric being tracked.
-
Data source settings, such as a pipeline or date range.
-
Visualization type, such as numbers, charts, or tables.
You can edit many of these elements directly from the dashboard interface.
How to Edit a Dashboard Widget in GoHighLevel
After opening the correct dashboard, you can edit a widget using the built-in controls. The exact labels may vary slightly, but the general process is the same across GoHighLevel dashboards.
-
Locate the widget you want to modify on the dashboard.
-
Move your cursor over the widget to reveal available options, such as an edit or configuration icon. This may look like a pencil, settings gear, or three-dot menu.
-
Click the edit or configuration option for that specific widget.
-
A settings panel or pop-up window will open, allowing you to change the widget configuration.
You are now ready to customize how the widget behaves and what data it shows inside GoHighLevel.
