Then the solution is a constitutional amendment, making sitting Presidents immune to civil suits.

But the solution should not be, to let a sitting President get away with something that would get anyone else convicted of a felony, imprisoned, and lose their job.

If it's the law, whether you thinks it's fair or not, the President should follow it. If you think a President should be allowed to break laws he finds inconvenient or embarrassing or time-consuming, then you think he should be above the law.
