Hi everyone, I’m experiencing a UI bug where an “Add” button appears in my app but cannot be removed in any way. What I’ve already tried: - Direct component deletion (button does not appear as a removable component) - Visibility conditions (cannot permanently hide it) - Layout editor checks - Support troubleshooting via Builder chat and email Reverting to a previous app version is NOT an option, as it would remove important new features. This looks like a rendering or configuration bug that requires internal intervention. App ID: [Tuscany Food Map] Has anyone experienced something similar? Glide team: this app is in production and this button must be removed. Thanks in advance. The right one: ![Screenshot 2026-01-19 alle 15.30.53](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/6/e/6e7ceab44bb13561067bd36f7e9352c8fe7a5513.jpeg) ![Screenshot 2026-01-19 alle 09.21.49](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/d/e/de44e23f08039ca0d80c966cb3325ea0cd940327.jpeg) The wrong one ---

Go to actions tab for the component and remove the title bar Add action. ---

Hi, thanks for the suggestion. I’ve checked the **Actions** tab for the component, but there is **no “Title bar Add action” available to remove**. There’s also no related option in the **Options** section. The button doesn’t appear to be a manually added action, but rather an **automatically generated “Add” button** , since the component itself doesn’t expose any control for it. If you have any other ideas on where this “Add” might be coming from (especially with Maps / Collections), I’m happy to try. Thanks again for the help. ![Screenshot 2026-01-19 alle 17.33.38](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/7/d/7d3466881a4cba32580733f9f57d6349501fa5e3.jpeg) ---

That’s weird. You should have something like this. ![1000006410](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/4/5/45428434859f948e3d0bfc39fb172d59a95010f8.jpeg) What happens if you remove the component and add it again? ---

Based on your screenshot, it seems you selected the “Map” component instead of the “Collection component. That "+Add” button is the title bar action of the collection. On the left click on collection, then on the right click on actions. There you can remove the title bar action. ---

Thanks for the input! Just to close the loop: I solved it by **deleting the Map component entirely and recreating it from scratch**. After rebuilding the map, the “+ Add” button disappeared and didn’t come back. Looks like it was a component-level UI glitch rather than an action or permission setting. Thanks again for the help 👍 ---
