For a long time, Add New Item has not shown Website - why is that? It's a much longer process each time you need to add a website, and it seems you just forgot to enable it in the drop down menu. Can you fix this?

Also, where is the Speech option?

The Zotero Connector should almost always be used to add webpage items.

There has never been a "speech" option but "presentation" is well-suited for speeches (in fact, the corresponding type in citation styles is called "speech")
