Customizing Default Record Left Sidebar Does Not Save/Update

This appears to be a bug. I have attempted to change the default left sidebar for contacts many times, adding/removing fields and re-ordering all fields. The changes I make are saved in the updated default view tool but they do not update in my live CRM account.

I stand corrected on my post! After making the custom object changes to the default view, we need to go back into a contact record > Actions > View all properties > (left panel - About) Reset to account defaults. This will revert to the defaults settings and remove any previous view settings applied by the user. The user can then make additional view setting changes that will be applied to their view only.

Hi @Peco

Unfortunately, HubSpot isn’t pushing these changes to all users in HubSpot.

You will have to got into a record (contact, company, etc.), click “view all properties” at the bottom of the “About this” section, and then click the “Reset to account defaults” button.

I hope that helps.
