Partially. Currently, I don’t see a way in this component settings to move the Messages section anywhere else, it seats after the Categories section. Due to our very long list of categories, it is not apparent unless we scroll down, so it is forgotten by my group members (in fact, by any group owners, and we have more than 20 groups…). So, that component has not been helpful so far. The custom section we make for our group inbox in the sidebar, for some reasons, has its default location above the Categories section.
