What Does It Mean to Be Sidelined?

To be sidelined means to be placed or kept on the side, not actively involved or considered in a particular situation or decision. It can also mean to be ignored or overlooked.

For example, if a person is sidelined during a meeting, it means they are not being included in the discussion or decision-making process. Similarly, if a project is sidelined, it means it is not being actively pursued or considered at the moment.

In your case, you might say "I was sidelined during the meeting" to indicate that you were not involved in the discussion. Or you might say "The project was sidelined due to lack of funding" to indicate that the project is not currently being pursued because of financial constraints.
