We will be on our second hosted discourse site soon and wanted to know if it is possible to make a static bottom menu with ease on a HOSTED discourse site as i know we are limited.
סיכום מבוסס בינה מלאכותית
The discussion revolves around creating a static bottom mobile menu on a hosted Discourse site. Damian_Boon asks if this is possible, given limitations on hosted solutions. awesomerobot suggests using the mobile tab bar theme component, clarifying that while plugins are restricted, themes and theme components can be installed freely. Damian_Boon initially struggles to access the link, but awesomerobot provides a corrected URL and explains the distinction between plugins and themes. Damian_Boon successfully installs and configures the component, confirming it works.
There’s a mobile tab bar theme component that may help!

I thought we couldn’t install anything from Github on a Hosted solution? I’ll look into this now, thankyou so much for the fast reply and help xx
Ah it looks like there was a link to a deleted post in that summary you may have clicked on… this should definitely work: Discourse Tab Bar for Mobile
That restriction only applies to plugins (because they have much more access to the backend and can impact other sites hosted on the same server) you’re completely free to install themes and theme components. There are a bunch here in our Customization > Theme category!
