Scratch Wiki in top navigation bar and drop-down search bar or increase size of navigation bar

Swampert11

Considering the fact that the Wiki is one of the most important, if not the most important resource on Scratch, I feel that it should be added in the top navigation bar. For those who think the bar will be cramped, the search bar can be just a giant magnifying glass that will drop down and show the search bar. This is to relieve the amount of space for the Wiki link in the top navigation bar. Considering the fact that the Wiki and the main site are fairly disconnected, I believe the best way to connect the two sites is through the top bar. After all, it is the place where most of the attention is directed to when you first look at the site.

Do you know a good project that doesn't have a lot of attention? Suggest a project to be put in this studio that is unpopular.

I don't see why it can't be with Create, Explore, Discuss, About, and Help, as they could add a button and expand the header a bit.

Support because most people ask for help without looking at the wiki but only if it is added another way because no-support for the drop down search bar

Witty signature.

What is wrong with the drop down search bar?

I just don't like the idea of it.

Witty signature.

I think we should put the explore link in the search results page and put a link to the Wiki in the header and a subdivision for the Wiki in the search results page.

This is my signature. It appears below all my posts. Discuss it on my profile, not the forums. Here's how to make your own.
.postsignature { overflow: auto; } .scratchblocks { overflow-x: auto; overflow-y: hidden; }

For the New Homepage, don't you think the search bar is a bit small? Anyway, thanks for the pictures.

I fixed it. My long username took up all the space.

No, because they also want to put it in the search and to have it say wiki.

It looks like this is a duplicate topic of this one over here so I'll close it to keep the conversation all in one place.

Please use the existing topic in the link above.
