Answer:

Once you open the Remora Administrative Portal and select Sidebars under the Website Mods tab (Where do I go to access sidebars?), click on the blue circle with a plus sign in it (pictured below) at the bottom, right corner of the page.

You are required to fill in the Name field (previewed below) to identify the new sidebar from existing ones.

Next, begin to build the sections of the sidebar by selecting “Click here to add one” under the heading of Sidebar Sections (illustrated below).

Another window will pop up with a Section Type drop-down menu (depicted below) of the different sections available (listed below).

Department Info: Display a department’s hours and phone number with a CTA “Contact [Insert Department Name]” button that links to a lead form.
Vehicle Carousel: You can choose which vehicles to feature, and the carousel will scroll through each vehicle.
Coupons: Feature coupons in a scrolling carousel.
Reviews: Highlight customer reviews in a scrolling carousel.
Articles: Insert a featured blog article in the sidebar.
Script: Add a custom script to the sidebar.
Call to Action: Include a Call to Action button in the sidebar.

Each section choice also brings up related fields for you to complete (example below). Once you finish entering the pertinent details, click on ADD (see below) in the lower, right-hand corner.

In addition, you can drag and drop (viewed below) the multiple sections into the order you prefer.
