Currently, when you're navigating in the Site Editor, you are shown an "add new" in each section but you can only add a specific entity when you're in each section as shown below:

add.new.mov

Taking inspiration from the overall toolbar when viewing your site, let's consider adding something similar to save folks time and clicks:

The following could be the best place to put it as we previously had a + there:

Open questions:

  • Should the menu should show contextual suggestions (surface as the top option the section you're already in) or have a set menu that doesn't change based on where you are?
  • Should it show as + or + new to match what's shown on the front end?

Here's a quick sketch:

add new

Figma.

Since individual sections have their own dedicated "Add [item]" buttons with prominence, anything beyond that would fall into the quick tool category, hence the idea of the dropdown.
