Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.The "Add" button in the toolbar confuses the user at times, if its supposed to "Add whatever thingy I'm on", while actually its always meant to quickly "Add content". I think changing that to "Add content" would make it much more clearer.
Also, perhaps the actual "Add user" link could be made to look uhm, more prominent perhaps? Not sure on this one. Comments?

webchickI think this might make sense. It would add clarity and I think would also help with the incorrect (but popular!) assumption that the shortcut bar is contextual.
Tagging for the UX team.

catchSeems like a good change for me.
While it's a different issue, I had an almost garland-esque experience trying to find that 'Add user' link yesterday, so could definitely be highlighted a bit more as well.

davyvdb commentedIt says "find content" too. "Add user" is maybe a bit too much. Because on most sites administrators won't add users but users will add themselves by registration. The toolbar is customisable so you can always add your own stuff.

xanoI can confirm it works perfectly. If you want to test it you might have to install Drupal from scratch or uninstall Toolbar in the DB yourself, since the fix effects Toolbar's hook_install(), which is only ever being executed during it's first installation.

Bojhan commentedGood to go, it was "Add" before because of the "edit mode" any page would be able to go into.

johnalbin"quickfix" isn't the proper tag. "quick fix" is.
