Hello! I can't expand the right panel, the arrow is missing. Did something change? (I'm on the Plus plan.)

Thank you for your help!

Hi Nadinchen, let's jump right into this! 

 

Can you instead try selecting your folder/file, then click on the ellipsis (...) and then click either folder info, or file info? 

 

That should give you the option to add tags to your content. Can you give it a go? 

 

Let me know of any updates!

    That works, thank you! (I would never have searched for tags there...)
