Thanks for the reply, but I would love to hide it only for normal users, as the + functionality changes for the administration ( + is no longer create a topic but rather how to organize the side bar)

To only hide it for regular users, you can make a slight adjustment to the above CSS:

body:not(.staff) {
  [data-section-name="community"] {
    .sidebar-section-header-button {
      display: none;
    }
  }
}

so now it will only apply to users that are not staff

We have a tutorial about how to make these kind of CSS changes here: Make CSS changes on Your Site

are people expecting it to add a sidebar item rather than create a new topic? or something else?
