After installing the full-width component, the button is spaced far from the search and other buttons. I wonder if it can be adjusted slightly.
After disabling the full-width component, the button is spaced more normally from the search and other buttons.
The “Hide default button” is no longer working with the new update from today
main ← new-topic-btn-readonly-topic
merged 01:01PM - 16 Sep 25 UTC
### What is this change?
When visiting a restricted category or tag where the… current user does not have permission to create a topic, we should still allow the user to write a new topic under a different category or tag. This is especially important when using the new topic button from the sidebar.
#### When the user does not have permission, the composer category defaults to:
1) Subcategory (if SiteSetting.default_subcategory_on_read_only_category is true and subcategory exists)
2) Default category chooser value of Category... prompting the user to select a category from the dropdown
This PR is a follow up to #33495 which was reverted previously due to a couple of issues which are now corrected:
- we no longer set a default category based on `default_composer_category` (previously was step 2 above)
- category banner text when a user cannot create a topic is now showing up correctly
- added a title attribute with more info for the disabled category in the category dropdown in composer
- for staff only tags, when creating a topic from the tag page as a non staff member we now automatically remove the restricted tag from the tags field in composer (as the user cannot use this tag)

I’m trying to change the icon from “+” so I tried writing edit or new or post but it turns up blank. Any idea what I might be doing wrong? Where can I find a list of acceptable icon words?

Did you use a valid free FA icon name?
https://fontawesome.com/search?ic=free-collection
If it still doesn’t work, you might need to add the icon name in the SVG icon subset setting, but since the component’s documentation doesn’t mention it, I think this shouldn’t be necessary.
