Thanks, Hayden! Looks like you uncovered a bug with that user tip. If the site you are on does not hide any post menu items behind `...` then the `...` is not shown and that user tip is orphaned and shown in the wrong location. We’ll get this fixed.

> There is are admin settings for `post menu` and `post menu hidden items`. By default, there are nine of them (eight for non-staff) which is alot, so five of them are hidden behind the `...`. If a site, like meta, decides to show fewer of them and to not hide them, then the `...` is not shown.

For future reference, you can display the user tips again by selecting the Show user tips again button on your user preferences \> interface. You don’t have to create test user accounts for that purpose. Though the first user tip is not shown again, which is a known but low priority bug.

I also noticed the “Keep reading!” user tip is a bit off. This is related to the new “Related” tab in that location that was created later. Will also look into having this fixed.
