CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Hi Tim,

Could you say what CMS you're using?  You may also want to put it in your profile so it shows up to the left of any messages you post.

Assuming Drupal (since that's what I can answer) - that information is in a block.  So in your Drupal menu, go to Structure menu -> Blocks (may be different on Drupal 6, I'm looking at D7).  Find the block called "CiviCRM Recent Items" and select an appropriate region to put it in (e.g. left sidebar, if your theme has one).

If it's still not there, click "Configure" and see if "Show block on Specific Pages" is correct.  On certain Civi 4.1 versions, there was a bug, and you'll see a "\r\n" which should actually be a line break.  If you see that, delete it and press "Enter" instead to break that line in two.

Tim - so glad that worked!  Note that you may have lost other blocks (like "Create New Individual") - you can go into the same place, find those other blocks, and apply the same fix if you like.
