Current release versions allow items to be placed into any of the sections of the page menu:

 ![14%20PM](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/atlassiandeveloper/original/3X/e/9/e9415e38bacb2b89d68a1655758483653e8629a7.png)

But current pre-release versions seem to only allow items to be placed into the last section of the page menu:

 ![47%20PM](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/atlassiandeveloper/original/3X/2/3/2362b4bdce54c6c8fe5b92d1da997882c4c80459.png)

Is this intentional? Documented?

Yes, not just the placement - the links also don’t work. The Slack Notifcations menu item doesn’t work either.

Is there any hope of getting announcements of these things before (or at least _when_) they hit the EAP so we can be proactive instead of reactive when trying them out with our apps?

@ElaineH An unannounced change that doesn’t work lands on a weekend in the Australian timezone means it doesn’t get resolved until Tuesday my local time. No customers were impacted, which is good, but it wastes our time if we don’t know ahead of a change.

Point taken, @james.dellow. We’ll improve on our timing. Thank you.
