Please restore the location of the Settings and Help buttons

Btw I actually love the new vault switcher, but the lack of the setting button on ribbon still bothers me. For me the ribbon is the main tool for using Obsidian. I also prefer the settings button to be on the bottom, separately of the rest.

So I made the solution using the Commander plugin and some css:

Install Commander ant add “Open settings” command to the ribbon.
Add this css-snippet:

.workspace-ribbon {
    padding-bottom: 8px;
}

.side-dock-actions {
    height: 100%;
    justify-content: flex-start;
}

.side-dock-settings {
    display: none;
}
    
div[aria-label = "Open settings"] { 
    order: 999; 
    margin-top: auto !important;
}

If you are using other language then English, replace “Open settings” in the snippet to whatever the command is called in your language.

The result:
