# Layout options for button

 * On one website I see the layout options, which allow me to change the aspect 
   and position of the button:

 * I’ve installed this on a new website, and that panel does not show, leaving me
   stuck with this:

 * Am I missing something here?

 * Hello [@webdados](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webdados/) !
 * Before digging deeper, I want to make sure I understand the issue correctly.
    1. Can you confirm whether the problem is:
    2.  - **A)** The layout options are visible in the WordPress admin, but the selected
          layout is **not reflected on the frontend**, or
        - **B)** The **settings panel itself is different or missing** between the 
          two WordPress dashboards?
 * To help us narrow this down, could you please share **screenshots of the plugin
   settings page in both WordPress admin dashboards**?
 * Also, please let us know the following details for **both sites**:
    - WordPress version
    - PHP version
 * With that information and the screenshots, we’ll be able to identify what’s causing
   the difference much faster.

 * Hey,
 * 1) It’s B:
 * ![](https://i0.wp.com/snipboard.io/8INXzn.jpg?ssl=1)
 * 2) Both sites with WordPress and WooCommerce fully updated, PHP 8.3. The site
   on the left (which does not show the Layout panel) has Social Chat the latest
   8.1.6 version and the site on the right (which does show it) has Social Chat 
   8.1.3 (I’m not confortable to update yet, if it means i’ll lose access to control
   the layout)
 * Was this removed from 8.1.3 to 8.1.6?

 * Hello [@webdados](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webdados/),
 * Thanks for the detailed explanationt!
 * The layout options were not removed. We’ve reorganized the settings UI and moved
   all design-related options (layout, position, styles) into the Customize tab.
 * So in 8.1.6, the functionality is still there, just in a different place. Updating
   will not remove your ability to control the button layout.
 * By the way, I’d also like to invite you to join the **founder users program**
   of a new SaaS we’re launching.
   It will allow deploying bots both on the web and
   on WhatsApp.
 * If that sounds interesting to you, feel free to reach out to me via linkedin 
   and I’ll be happy to share more details.
