When a user [bins a section ](../faq/content-dashboard-displays-content-performance.mdx)in Content Recommendations, it no longer shows next to the content title.

## February

Moved the Content Recommendations user interface (UI) navigation bar from the top of the page to the left for users on Opti ID. All feature functionalities remain the same.
