🧭 Understanding the navigation menu
What sits behind each section of the menu bar, why your bar is not the same as your clan mate's, and how to find a page you cannot see.
You are looking for a page and you cannot find it. That is what this article is for: it lists what actually sits behind each section of the menu bar, and explains the two reasons a page you have seen before is not there today.
Start with the reason that catches nearly everyone.
The two rows at the top
The header is two rows, and they do different jobs.
The top row is context: the logo, the clan you are working in, the Last scan chip, a language flag, and your own name with a small menu behind it. Nothing here navigates to a feature; it tells you who and where you are.
The second row is the sections. Clicking or hovering one drops a wide panel underneath it. The section that contains the page you are on is marked, so you can always see where you are.
What is in each section
MY — your own record
Three shortcuts across the top — Personal Dashboard, My Progress and Notification Hub — then columns:
- Your progress: My Research Tracker, My Clan Rewards
- Track your notifications: Surveys
- Your settings: User & Player Settings, Clans & Subscriptions, and — for clan admins only — Getting Started
- Community Hub: Forum
Dashboards — how the clan is doing
Shortcuts to Chest Rewards, Chest Point Details and Ancients Statistics, then:
- Activity tracking: Player Activity Dashboard
- Chest tracking: Chest Dashboard, Chest Statistics, Chest Cycle Statistics
- Clan performance: Clan War Room, Event Statistics, Epic Squad Performance
Clan — what your clan has published
Shortcuts to Members, Union of Triumph and Chest Catalog, then Rules & Information and Heroes Overview under clan info, Gold Pass Overview under Union Triumph, and Forum under community.
CP RUNs — the Conquest Point economy
Shortcuts to My CP account, Available CP RUNs and Apply as defender, plus Clan Statistics. The other two columns — run management and settings — are clan-admin pages and stay hidden from members.
Game Tools — calculators and calendars
Shortcuts to Stacking Calculator, Event Calendar and Summon Mastery, plus Research Costs, Mini-Event Calendar and Game Guides. Nothing here is about your clan; it is reference material for the game itself.
Clan Management — clan admins only
The largest section. Like MY it fills all four columns, and it has far more in each. Shortcuts to Clan Dashboard, Events and Crypt Cycles, then:
- Members: Clan Members, Members Sync Service, AI Members Insights, Surveys, User Requests
- Distribution: Announcements, In-game Chat Groups, Messages & Rate limiting, Reward Ledgers, RSS Management, Shared Battle Journals
- Data & history: Claimed Chests, Penalties Applied, Import Dashboard, Imports: Event Points, Exports & API
- Setup: Clan Settings, Chest Catalog, Discord Settings, AI Insight Settings, Announcement Templates, Reward Types
The last item on the bar, TB DISCORD, is a plain link and leaves the portal. Two further sections exist for portal staff; they are never shown to customers and there is nothing in them you are missing.
Inside a panel
Every section panel is laid out the same way. Three highlighted tiles across the top are the pages most people in that section want. Underneath, the remaining pages sit in labelled columns. On the right there is a dark tile promoting one page — the current pick for MY is the research tracker, and for Dashboards it is the game event calendar — with a short list of quick links below it.
Along the bottom of every panel, in every section, runs the same strip of four: My Dashboard, Notification Hub, Game Calendar, My User & Player Settings. If you only remember one thing about the menu, remember that strip — those four are reachable from anywhere without hunting for the right section.
The clan selector
Next to the logo sits the clan you are currently working in, shown as its kingdom number and its name. Click it and you get a dropdown split into two groups: 🛡️ Admin Rights for clans you administer and 👤 Player Clans for clans where you are a member. Every row in that dropdown adds the clan's three-letter initials in brackets between the kingdom number and the name, so two clans with similar names are easy to tell apart there even though the button above shows only the name. A tick marks the one you are on. For people who administer many clans, the search box at the top narrows the admin group.
Your choice is remembered for the rest of the session and applies everywhere except your dashboard, which follows the player chosen in Viewing as instead. Which clan is selected at login is your Default Clan, set at MY → User & Player Settings.
The rest of the top row
| Item | What it does |
|---|---|
| Last scan | When your clan's chest grabber account last collected chests, in UTC — with your local time in brackets once you have set a time zone. Reads Setup your account to start scanning when the selected clan has no active chest grabber account. |
| Bell | Shown to clan admins and portal staff only. Members read the same things at MY → Notification Hub. |
| Flag | Switches the interface language. Fifteen are available, and your choice is saved to your account. |
| Your name | My Dashboard, My User & Player Settings and Sign Out. |
On a phone
Below 768 px the section bar is replaced by a bar fixed to the bottom of the screen with five buttons: Home, Profile, Support, Calendar and Menu. Menu opens the full list as expandable cards, with a Search pages… box at the top — type into it and the sections that contain no match disappear, while every section that does contain one opens up. The search filters sections, not pages: a section that survives shows its whole list, matching entries and all the rest together. That search box exists only in the phone menu; on a desktop you browse the sections.
Opening and closing
- Hover over a section and its panel opens after 300 ms. Moving across to a neighbouring section while a panel is open switches instantly.
- Click opens immediately, and clicking the same section again closes it.
- Moving the mouse away from the whole menu closes it after half a second, so a diagonal drift towards a link does not lose the panel.
- Esc closes the panel and puts keyboard focus back on the section you opened.
Common questions
A section I was using yesterday has disappeared. What happened?
Check which clan is selected in the header. Admin sections are granted per clan, so switching to a clan where you are an ordinary member removes Clan Management and the admin half of CP RUNs. Switch back and they return. If the clan is right and the section is still missing, your role in that clan has changed — ask your clan leadership.
Why does the same page appear in two different sections?
Because two different jobs lead to it. Forum is listed under both MY and Clan and is the same page either way. Surveys is not: under MY it is the surveys you have been asked to answer, under Clan Management it is the ones your clan is running. Chest Catalog is the same split — under Clan you read your clan's chest values, under Clan Management you edit them.
Is there a search box for pages?
On a phone, yes — the Menu button opens a list with Search pages… at the top. It narrows the list to the sections that contain a match rather than to the pages themselves, so you still read the surviving section to find the entry you typed. On a desktop there is no page search; use the section panels, or the four-link strip along the bottom of every panel for the pages you reach most often.
The menu says one thing and the page header says another. Which is right?
(delete or rewrite — the answer describes the inconsistency this rename removes). In Dashboards, Chest Cycle Statistics opens a page headed Crypt Cycle Performance and Chest Point Details opens one headed Chest Points Details. In MY, My Clan Rewards opens a page headed My Rewards. Trust the menu entry — it is the current name — and wherever you see "crypt" in a heading, read it as "chest", which is the older word for the same thing.
