Where did the tag info button go?

There used to be a button next to the new topic button on the topic list filtered for a tag.

But I can no longer find it.

I can only see the wrench when I am admin. Where do I find the description and information on usage as a user now? I know there is the tag banner component, but that doesn’t provide information on usage like the button did (and obviously I cannot install it to get the information)

looks like it may have been moved in this commit

Yes it was removed when we added a dedicated tag settings page, and I’ve opened a PR to bring back the info button and revamp the old info banner align it with our category banner styles

I think I found a bug today. I was on https://meta.discourse.org/ap/about and wanted to check the followers of one of the tags. For a moment, I wondered what the was supposed to add - nothing happens when I click it. Because of the navigation filter that indicated this is a tag page, I assume it’s the tag info button.

Good find! that plugin reuses a component but doesn’t have the same data available… this will hide the button:
