# As of r19574 the new feature pointers are…

As of [r19574](https://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/19574), the new feature
pointers are no longer shown for new installs, or users created after an update 
that added the pointer.

We left this alone through RC2 that way if you created a test installation or added
new users during testing, you’d still see the pointers.
