Feedback ยท Repositioning of the "add new trait/interest" buttons/sections (implemented)

I find it kinda annoying and pretty jarring when the page zips from the "add new trait/interest" button to the "add new trait/interest" area and back again. I suggest either moving the buttons down to the bottom of the lists or moving the sections to the tops of the lists, just so that the buttons and sections are closer together and people don't get disoriented when clicking them.

I initially wanted them down as well, but then I ran into the issue where I wanted navigation to be as consistent as possible. Having navigation items just under the header is a bit of an idiom by now.

A simple solution might just be to hide the traits/interests section as long as you're 'adding new' so the new form immediately takes the place of the old and there's no "zipping" around.

Hmm, I'm not quite sure what you mean. So you hide the lists that are already there as long as you're adding new ones? For instance, if I add "Species: Human", then save, then edit again and add "Age: Adult", I won't be able to see the species until I've actually added the age, correct?

Yeah. I personally don't really feel that jarred or distrubed with the scrolling but that would be an easy way to remove any scrolling.

I would rather have the add new section be placed above the list, but below the button, if that makes sense. That way you still have everything there if you need to reference it for some reason or think of a change to something else while you're writing up something new, but you aren't jumping all over the place

A recent update to the theme has addressed this concern, I believe.
