What happened to the "review posts" section?

re: in the upper left under the member avatar activity section.

The option to view current post activity in the forums is gone. If an older thread is resurrected we will have no way of knowing about a new post short of hunting down every old thread we ever participated in. The feature was particulalry useful with project discussions away from the main board.

Well that's a screen shot of what I'm seeing. "What's New" at the top doesn't show the post I made in the Force Awakens (Spoilers) thread earlier today either.

Half of my sig disappeared too.

Check your Preferences in your profile.  Make sure they're set up the way you want.  Log all the way out of the forum, clear your browser cache and all cookies.   Then log back in fresh.  See if that helps.

FWIW: I just checked that actual forum, and the last post in the FA(S) thread was by you about 3 and a half hours ago.

Logging out/tossing cookies did nothing. Preferences are currently set to no buddy list and no quicklinks, yet there they are...

And the sig is still FUBAR'd. 

Which one should be checked for current activities?

Well, I've never seen or used any member post activity link.  I never saw it probably because I never used it.  I just use the "What's New" tab and everything anyone ever posts in the main forum or any project I'm a member of shows up there.  Things I post don't show up as new as I've already seen them.  I don't know why this has disappeared.  I haven't touched anything in the code for the site or made any configuration changes.  It's strange that a feature has suddenly disappeared. 

As for your sig being messed up, that's probably partially my fault.  Something about it was causing all sorts of havoc on the site.  Any section of a page under a post by you was being shifted and put in as part of your signature.  On threads you were active in this was shifting things way off to the side and really messing things up.  At the end of your signature was a link with no text.  I don't know why but deleting that fixed it.  You can go in and edit your profile and add back in whatever is now missing and hopefully the problem won't repeat.

The activities link would connect you to your "tasks" portion of your profile as a one click access. The nav-bar used to have two columns instead of one as depicted in my screen shot pic in my OP, and the arrows for the drop down menus are also new. Currently the buddy list is in the bar while the activities link is gone, despite not having buddy list checked off as something I actually want in said task bar. 

Tollon states he still has the activities link in his bar, perhaps he can nab a screen shot?

I've never had that so far as I can recall.  Been here about what? 6 months?

Okay, that jogged a memory.  Go to your profile and uncheck the pop-up menu option.  That will bring back the other interface.

That did it, it looks like it used to (just like Tollon's screen shot).

Thanks!
