Drag & Drop with Auto-Hierarchical Layout in GoHighLevel

If you manage complex marketing assets in tools like ClickUp and need a visual way to organize pages, the GoHighLevel drag and drop layout view inside the funnel and website builder gives you a clear, clickable hierarchy of every page in your project.

This guide explains how to open, use, and customize the auto-hierarchical layout in GoHighLevel so you can quickly understand how your funnels and websites are structured.

What Is the GoHighLevel Auto-Hierarchical Layout?

The auto-hierarchical layout in GoHighLevel is a visual map of your funnel or website. It shows pages as connected nodes and arranges them automatically in a structured tree.

Instead of scanning long lists, you get a diagram that helps you see relationships between pages at a glance.

Key benefits of the GoHighLevel layout view

• Visual hierarchy of all funnel or website pages
• Automatic layout with no manual positioning required
• Easy drag and drop to move pages and adjust relationships
• Faster navigation between steps and variants
• Improved understanding of complex funnels

How to Access the GoHighLevel Drag & Drop Layout

You can open the layout view directly from any funnel or website inside your GoHighLevel account.

1. Log in to your GoHighLevel account.

2. From the left-hand menu, open Sites.

3. Select Funnels or Websites, depending on what you want to edit.

4. Click the specific funnel or website where you want to see the layout.

5. Inside the builder area, look for the Layout or Auto Layout style view icon and click it to open the hierarchical map.

Once opened, your funnel or website pages will appear as connected blocks laid out automatically.

Understanding the GoHighLevel Hierarchical Map

The layout map in GoHighLevel follows a simple, logical structure. Each page appears as a node, and arrows or connectors show the flow between them.

Main elements in the GoHighLevel layout

• Root page or step – the entry point of your funnel or the home page of your website.
• Child pages – steps that follow from the previous page, such as upsells, downsells, thank-you pages, or additional content pages.
• Branches – multiple paths from a single step, representing different offers or variations.
• Variants (if applicable) – A/B test versions or alternative layouts connected to a main step.

The system automatically arranges these nodes so the hierarchy is always easy to read, even when you add more steps.

How to Use Drag and Drop in GoHighLevel Layout View

The drag and drop function lets you reposition nodes inside the layout view so you can better visualize how related steps connect and group together.

Basic drag and drop actions in GoHighLevel

1. Open the Auto-Hierarchical Layout view for your funnel or website.

2. Move your cursor over a page node until the drag handle or cursor change appears.

3. Click and hold the node you want to move.

4. Drag it to a new position within the layout canvas.

5. Release the mouse button to place the node in its new spot.

The system maintains the logical connections between nodes while letting you visually adjust how they are arranged on-screen.

Tips for working with GoHighLevel drag and drop

• Use drag and drop to create more space between busy branches.
• Group related offers or follow-up pages near each other for clarity.
• Reposition nodes so key conversion steps stand out on the map.
• Zoom in and out (if available) to better manage large funnels.

Auto Layout Behavior in GoHighLevel

The hierarchy in GoHighLevel is generated automatically based on how pages are connected in the funnel or website settings.

How the auto-hierarchical layout works

• When you add new steps, the system places them in the appropriate branch.
• When you remove a step, the layout reorganizes to maintain a clear path.
• Parent–child relationships are preserved even if you move the nodes visually.
• Lines and arrows update automatically to reflect changes.

This means you spend less time fixing the diagram and more time planning page flows.

Editing Funnel or Website Pages from the GoHighLevel Layout

The layout view does more than show structure. It also serves as a fast navigation tool for editing pages inside GoHighLevel.

Open a page from the GoHighLevel map

1. In the auto-hierarchical layout, locate the page node you want to edit.

2. Click the node (or the edit icon if shown).

3. You will be taken directly to the page editor for that specific step or website page.

This workflow reduces the time spent hunting through standard lists, especially in large projects.

Best Practices for Organizing Projects in GoHighLevel

Using the layout view strategically will keep your GoHighLevel funnels and websites easy to manage as they grow.

Recommended practices

• Plan the core path first – start with the main journey from entry to thank-you page before adding branches.
• Use clear naming – label steps in GoHighLevel with descriptive titles so the map is instantly understandable.
• Keep branches logical – avoid unnecessary splits that make the hierarchy confusing.
• Review the layout regularly – after updates, open the auto-hierarchical view to confirm the structure still makes sense.
