I’ve looked for it but I honestly don’t see it now. It used to be in the top drop down menus, but what I have there now is a drop down menu of the various forum, a link called New(), Latest and Top. I see there are 3 buttons at the top right, one for search, one that brings up a menu list for badges, latest, unread, etc, and one that seems to be my user but all it has in it are links to threads I have posted in. I know it’s got to be here somewhere, and I figure once someone points it out I’ll be doing a palm to face thing, but can someone give an old guy a clue here? ---

So, when I do that I get a drop down menu that says Summary, Activity, Messages, Drafts, Preferences, and Log Out. I would have thought it would be in Preferences, but I still don’t see it. Is it in one of the other menu choices? ---

Ok. Click on your avatar. Drop down the menu and click preferences. Move over to the account box, click it. It will drop down, click on profile. ---

Clicking on UserCP used to give you a list of your subscribed threads. There isn’t an exact equivalent on Discourse, but there are some things that are similar: > [@Is there a way to subscribe to a thread?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/is-there-a-way-to-subscribe-to-a-thread/912156): > > I know that if you post in a thread you can find that thread again by going to your “Activity” page. And there is the “bookmark” function that tags specific posts. Is there a way to subscribe to a thread without posting in it? ---

Maybe I’m asking the wrong question here. I basically followed what you said, and indeed I am in the Profile section, but I don’t see the stuff I used to see in UserCP, namely my membership info and specifically, how I pay for continued membership. I suspect that I have some time here (I think I still had a year left on my membership), but I wanted to make sure I had paid up to date and I’m not seeing that in here. I wish I could snip what I’m seeing and paste it into the post, but that doesn’t seem to be working for me for some reason (I don’t think it worked before either). ---

I don’t think they’ve rolled out what used to be called ‘paid subscriptions.’
