Hello! rdearman gave me administrative access, and I've been tweaking the forum settings a bit. Specifically, if you edit your profile, you can set the "Languages" field, which will appear on the right, under your image.
LOOK! Over there! →
I think this is probably better than putting languages in signatures, because signatures make even short posts take up lots more vertical space.
Update: You need to have made at least three posts before you can edit the "Languages" field; this is to prevent spambots from filling it up with links to dodgy handbag sales (a favorite spam tactic at HTLAL).

Re: Languages are now in the sidebar
I read that as "sidecar" ... and odd images sprang to mind.

Re: Languages are now in the sidebar
Hmm. Try clicking on your name on the upper right, selecting "User Control Panel" and "Profile". Does that work?

Re: Languages are now in the sidebar
Thanks, emk. By doing as you suggest (clicking on my name in the upper right) I can now access the control panel. Apologies for my too-hasty previous post.

Re: Languages are now in the sidebar
Worked for me, but perhaps because I have privileges. This is probably a permissions issue, so should be something fixable.
