Hi all,
Is it possible to add a Create a post button lower down on the page than the one in the top header? I have been running some beta calls with some of our early adopters prior to launching in January and the main thing coming back is that the create button is not in the expected place when a user is in a category itself. they are expecting it to be at the top of the category feed. I can’t find a way to customise the category pages in this way, is it possible?
Thanks!

Hi
There’s a couple of ways to go about this and as
If you’re looking for another specific place to add the button, I would encourage you to raise an idea, as trying to do this via custom code would be too fragile and tricky to maintain as our product evolves.
Let me know if you need any help or have any more questions 😁
+2I think you are talking about the desktop view? I agree, I would like to see it in a place where it feels more natural for the users.

Hi,
yes in the desktop view. As soon as the user scrolls down the screen a little to see the feeds, the create topic button is off screen and when I have run sessions to gather feedback and watch how people use the site, there is clear confusion over where to go because they need to scroll back to the top.
+2I am not sure is this possible to do with some custom code, maybe someone can help us?

These are my favorites.
I have to test adding the HTML widget.
I have to say that sticky mega menu brings the Create topic button available for the users and addition, users doesnt have to scroll up/down so much. Sadly this requires a developer.
Hi has anyone made any progress on this one? Keen to know if there’s a solution I can improvise here.
Hello,
Here is how I did it using HTML. You could put this anywhere within a HTML Widget either in the main content area or in the sidebar. Mix it with other HTML for a full custom layout.
Notes:
Adjust styles to match your brand and change the url.
Example below has no rollover state, that needs to be added.
Maybe there is a more refined way, I would be interested in seeing that.
<div style="display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center; padding-bottom: 20px">
<button style="padding: 10px 20px;
background-color: #FA4515;
color: white;
border: none;
cursor: pointer;
font-size: 14px;
font-weight: 600;
margin-top: 20px;" onclick="location.href='https://yourcommunityurl.com/topic/new'">+ Create Topic</button>
</div>
