How much time do you lose hunting through the dashboard for one store setting?
The unified settings center gives you a single place to manage everything about your Salla store. Every settings page, from your profile and store plan through to payments, shipping, marketing, and installed apps, sits behind one panel with a sidebar you can move around freely. No jumping between pages, no losing your place halfway through a change. In this guide, you'll learn how to open the unified settings center, how to expand it to full page, and what each settings page in the list controls.
The unified settings center is one panel in your Salla dashboard that holds every store setting. You can open it from the settings icon in the main menu or from any store section, then use its sidebar to switch between profile, plan, payments, orders, shipping, and every other settings page without leaving the screen.
