tonyjr,

Sorry, I had to go out to run an errand.

You found what? Please explain. Do you mean that you found the box on your home page for 'recently tagged pages'? If that is what you mean, as I said before and as Pattie explained in more detail, if the 'recently tagged pages' isn't showing on your home page, you need to go to your Preferences to add it. Your home page is customizable. There are probably lots of other things which you could also add to your home page if desired. You need to check that out.

To customize your home page, click on Preferences at the top of the page above menus. Photo 1 below shows the location of the Preferences link. When you click on Preferences you will see a page with lots of things you can set/change for your account. On the far left you will see a vertical menu or list of options. See the menu/list on the far left in Photo 2 below. Note that your Preferences page will not look like the rest of that photo, because that is not the 1st or opening page of my preferences, but the menu on far left should look the same.

From the left side menu on your Preferences page, choose 'Custom Homepage'. That is the page of options you can add to your homepage, and it should look very much like the page shown in Photo 2 below. Scroll down that page and look for the option 'Recently Tagged Pages'. Note that it is at the bottom of my page, but Pattie says it is at the top of her page, so I'm guessing it could be anywhere on that page.

To the left of 'Recently Tagged Pages' you should see a selection box which allows you to select the position of the item (where you want to put it on your home page) and whether it is disabled. If yours says 'disabled' as I'm guessing it probably does, you need to assign it to a space using that selection box. Note at the bottom of Photo 2 to see that mine is assigned to Column 2, Position 7. Those Columns and positions can be a little confusing, but since mine is in the lower right corner, you should get the same if you set yours up like mine. Be sure that none of the other items on the list is set to the same column/position though. Don't worry. If you don't like it where you put it, you can change it again. Once you do this, it should show up correctly on your Home Page.

Edited to fix a label name which was not exactly correct. I'm human, Folks, so not perfect.
