I use this on my forum: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/cxf-add-whats-new-beside-alerts-tab.6881/updates?page=2

But, I place it next to "Alerts" and not the "Search" bar.

The reason is, going from mobile to PC, you're used to using the lightning bolt. Then, you're taken aback to use the "What's New" tab. It is more confusing for people who split their time evenly between the two platforms, but not so much for those who use just one.

I don't feel both take up enough screen real estate to remove the tab and keep the bolt, so I have both enabled on PC.

This is an add-on, but it can also be done via a CSS template edit. Whichever way works for @DNF Admin to do is good enough for me if the reasoning behind this is sound and fitting for the forum.

Hi @amplify,

The reasoning behind this definitely makes sense. I will look into this today, thanks a lot for the suggestion!
