I Now Have a Circled "I" Tab on My Sidebar - It Doesn't Seem to Do Anything?

Hi folks, it's been there for a week or more, at least, but I don't know what it's for? Mousing over, I get "compendium".  I don't have one of those in my campaign, is it a search for just the compendium?  In the screenshot, below, it doesn't bring up anything that's in my journal, for example. Thanks in advance for clarification on this new tab.  :) -- Tim
That is there for all games. If the game you are playing (set based on the character sheet) has open source rules (aka free and fair use) those would be included in that compendium. Pathfinder and 5th edition D&D have such compendiums. If you or your DM purchase rules sets for the game, that would also appear in there. I don't know why it would be new, though. I was under the impression that it was always there since that is a general Roll20 function, not tied to specific games.

Wether or not it's showing in a game depends on ig the Game Creator have decided the specific game would be using one. Some info: <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Compendium" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Compendium</a> <a href="https://roll20.net/compendium/" rel="nofollow">https://roll20.net/compendium/</a>
I believe it used to not show up if the game's creator did not select a Compendium. It looks like it is now showing by default in all games, regardless of Compendium selection. Not sure when this changed.

I'm hoping this is some sort of change heading towards custom compendiums.&nbsp; Probably wishful thinking, but that is what I will stick with until it goes away.&nbsp;
Thank you folks.&nbsp; Kraynic, that would really be awesome.&nbsp; Though I've had a ball adding photos and animated gifs to the "chapters" in the journal under the folder "Rules", LOL Yes, Rabukias, quite right.&nbsp; Here's an older screen shot I have on my Facebook page for my campaign from about two months ago.&nbsp; It's not there. :)
