How to Delete Saved & Universal Sections in ClickFunnels 2.0: Step-by-Step Guide
ClickFunnels 2.0 offers incredible flexibility when building pages, and one of the key features is the ability to save sections for later use or create universal sections that can be reused across multiple funnels. But what happens when you’ve accumulated too many saved sections or have universal sections you no longer need? It’s time to do some cleanup! In this guide, I’ll show you exactly how to delete saved and universal sections in ClickFunnels 2.0, step by step.
What Are Saved and Universal Sections?
Before we dive into the deletion process, let’s clarify what saved sections and universal sections are in ClickFunnels 2.0:
- Saved Sections: These are sections you’ve built on a page and decided to save for future use. Instead of rebuilding the same layout every time, you can just drop in a saved section to save time.
- Universal Sections: Think of these as saved sections on steroids. Universal sections are linked across multiple funnels, so if you update the section in one place, it updates everywhere. Perfect for things like footers or consistent CTAs across different funnels.
Knowing the difference between these two will help you stay organized, especially when it’s time to clean up unused or outdated sections.
Accessing the Page Editor in ClickFunnels 2.0
To delete saved or universal sections, you’ll need to access the Page Editor in ClickFunnels 2.0. Don’t worry—it doesn’t matter if you’re editing a funnel page, landing page, or any other page. The process is the same across the board.
Here’s how to get started:
- Log into ClickFunnels 2.0: Once logged in, navigate to your Funnels tab or Landing Pages.
- Select a Funnel or Page to Edit: Choose any funnel or page. For this example, let’s use a funnel page. Click on the Edit button to open the page editor.
- Open the Page Editor: After clicking edit, you’ll be taken to the familiar page editor interface. This is where the magic happens!
Now that we’re in the editor, let’s move on to how to delete a saved section.
Deleting a Saved Section
Alright, now that you’re inside the editor, it’s time to start cleaning up those saved sections you no longer need. Follow these steps to delete a saved section:
- Open the My Assets Panel: On the top of the editor, you’ll see a tab labeled My Assets between the “Layout” and “Popup” options. Click on My Assets.
- Locate the Saved Sections: Under the My Assets panel, you’ll see a list of options. Look for the section labeled Saved—this is where all your saved sections live.
- Find the Section You Want to Delete: Scroll through the list of saved sections until you find the one you want to delete.
- Delete Your Saved Section: Click on the three dots beneath the section’s image to open a menu. From there click on delete in the new pop-up that appears.
Deleting a Universal Section
Now that you’ve mastered deleting saved sections, let’s tackle universal sections. Universal sections are super handy for keeping consistent elements across multiple pages, but sometimes they outlive their usefulness. Luckily, the process for deleting them is similar to saved sections.
- Open the My Assets Panel: Just like before, you’ll start by clicking on the My Assets tab in the page editor.
- Find the Universal Sections: Under the same menu where you found saved sections, you’ll see an option for Universal sections. Click on that, and it will show a list of all the universal sections you’ve created.
- Select the Section You Want to Delete: Scroll through the list until you find the universal section you’re ready to get rid of. Click on the three dots beneath the section’s image to open a menu.
- Confirm the Deletion: After clicking Delete, a second pop-up will appear asking you to confirm. This is just a safety check to make sure you’re not accidentally deleting something important. Click Delete again to finalize the process, and that universal section is gone for good!
Best Practices for Managing Saved & Universal Sections
Now that you know how to delete sections, let’s talk about keeping your saved and universal sections organized. Whether you’re building a single funnel or managing multiple projects, these tips will help keep everything tidy:
- Rename Instead of Delete: If you’re unsure about deleting a section but want to keep things organized, consider renaming it. This way, you can easily find it later without cluttering up your assets list.
- Backup Important Sections: Before hitting delete, think about whether you might need that section again in the future. You can back up key sections by saving them locally or in another tool so you won’t lose access if they’re deleted.
- Regularly Clean Up Unused Sections: As you build more funnels, it’s easy to accumulate unused saved and universal sections. Make it a habit to regularly review and delete old sections you no longer need to avoid clutter and confusion.
- Use Universal Sections Wisely: Universal sections are powerful but can lead to issues if they’re overused. Before creating one, make sure it’s something you’ll need across multiple funnels and that consistency is necessary. Otherwise, a saved section might do the trick.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
Sometimes things don’t go as smoothly as planned, so let’s look at a few common issues you might encounter and how to fix them:
- Sections Not Deleting: If you click delete and nothing happens, try refreshing your page or clearing your browser’s cache. This can often solve minor issues in ClickFunnels 2.0.
- Accidentally Deleted a Section: Whoops! Deleted something by mistake? Unfortunately, ClickFunnels doesn’t have an “undo” button for deleted sections, so make sure you’re absolutely certain before hitting delete. To avoid this, make it a habit to back up important sections.
- Can’t Find the Section You Want to Delete: If you’re having trouble finding a specific section, it’s possible that it’s saved under a different name or in a different category (saved vs. universal). Double-check both tabs under My Assets to make sure you’re looking in the right place.
