How to assign DHCP leases in the new GUI?

The issue I am facing:
In an OLDER version of PiHole it was EASY to assign static leases.
I would open the DHCP list, find the device, click a box ASSIGN STATIC IP and presto.
It was done.

Now I am not able to see how to do this easily and quickly.

Details about my system:
Core 6.1.2 FTL 6.2.3 WebUI 6.2.1

What I have changed since installing Pi-hole:
Nothing.
It is more what the program has changed.

In the DHCP settings screen, flip the "Basic" toggle in the top right corner into "Expert".

EDIT: I still have my old v5 reservations so I can copy/paste below to the new v6 ... when I feel its time to migrate :wink:

$ awk -F '=' '{print $2}' /etc/dnsmasq.d/04-pihole-static-dhcp.conf
00:11:32:XX:XX:XX,10.0.0.3,nas
00:1B:21:XX:XX:XX,10.0.0.9,xen02
B8:27:EB:XX:XX:XX,10.0.0.4,ph5b
00:16:3E:XX:XX:XX,10.0.0.5,ph6b

Or:

$ sed 's/^dhcp-host=//' /etc/dnsmasq.d/04-pihole-static-dhcp.conf
00:11:32:XX:XX:XX,10.0.0.3,nas
00:1B:21:XX:XX:XX,10.0.0.9,xen02
B8:27:EB:XX:XX:XX,10.0.0.4,ph5b
00:16:3E:XX:XX:XX,10.0.0.5,ph6b

I believe above file 04-pihole-static-dhcp.conf is also contained in a Teleporter backup if you created one before you updated to v6.

Ok, thanks, but if I got desperate to what was going on with PiHole and REMOVED IT then reinstalled it, I'm guessing that file is gone?
