A user reported that the ‘Create a new topic’ button disappeared from the desktop welcome page in their community using the Horizon theme on a Starter plan. chapoi clarified that this is intentional — the button was moved to the top of the sidebar for a cleaner desktop layout, while remaining on mobile for accessibility. The button still exists on desktop, just relocated; newkid confirmed they found it on the right-hand side, admitting they hadn’t noticed it before. The user appreciated the clarification and noted their community hides the left sidebar for a minimalist view, making the original button’s location useful — but now accepts the new placement.
Hi 
Does anyone else in the community have this problem?
Upon logging in today as an administrator to our community in welcome back page the ‘create a new topic button’ has disappeared.
Note:
Appreciate any help 
Hello!
This is expected behaviour: Horizon is an opinionated theme and we removed the create-topic button from its original place (which, depending on your setup can get rather cluttered), to a new prime location at the top of the sidebar:
On mobile, the sidebar is less easy accessible, so we’re keeping the button there.
This was always the plan, but due to a little error, the topic button made an accidental re-appearance on desktop.
Thanks very much appreciated.
Although, for our community we have removed/hidden the left hand tool bar to give our users an uncluttered view, so to us it was useful.
But I now see (new topic button) in the right hand side which is also cool. (It probably has been their all the time, I just didn’t notice it 
)
