The home site (+ New) drop down button is missing the ability to add a list, document, library, page, etc. I can't figure out why it disappeared.
Here's the default button:
The only option now that are available are these. What happened to the options?

Solution@lukevang Only the homepage +New button allows you to create other content libraries (lists, doc libs, apps) within your site. When viewing a given "page" or "news post" your contextual to the content you're currently viewing and therefore you're only able to create a New page (using the templates gallery) or start with a copy of this page/news post.
This is similar to document libraries, where the +New button allows you to create folders or documents, but not lists or pages.
It's (trying) to be contextually relevant to the area of SharePoint you're in.
Sounds like it's confusing you however. Love your feedback on how we could make that more clear. I think it would be equally confusing if all options were available everywhere, but love to hear from you.

Hi @lukevang,
It looks like you are on a Site Page when clicking "New" in the second image. The first image looks like you're on the home page of the site - which allows for the full range of new items.
I hope this helps.
