It would be great if we could position a metabox in the side and also specify the priority of it. I created a help field group that I want to display as the first block in the side of all pages.
Don’t know if that’s possible but you can do it with some Javascript shenanigans.
jQuery('#id-of-you-fieldbox').insertBefore('#submitdiv');
Hi @bluehiveinteractive
jQuery will most likely be your best bet for this.
I’ll have a look and see if there is a simple solution to add this into the core.
Thanks

I think this is a super old thread, but I think it’s still relevant.
Here’s how to do it with a filter:

It would be cool if “side-high” was a selectable option in addition to “side” but I’m guessing everything is focused on Gutenberg-land now and I’m not sure how this applies there.
