Upper right on the forum page.
This area use to show my log in name.
Now all I see is log in/join.
Normal?

I suspect I am logged in as all forum pages display correct......read/unread.

If I click on "my tracked discussions" I see my log in name.

Try clearing your cache as Rod suggested

You could start with a simple Shift + Refresh and see if that does the trick. If not, then you might have to try clearing your browser cache.

All it takes is patience.
An hour ago it was broke.
Now it works fine.

No auto cache/history or any other clear going on at my end that I'm aware of.
Oh well........it now seems to work.

Good to hear

The cache should clear itself over time, which is probably what happened in your case. A shift refresh will often just make the clearing happen faster when necessary.
