Hi @Caroline_Mehl,

See this post for the probable answer:

> Hi @Brian_Elery_Phillips, There’s no bug; it’s because you have your “Group By” set to “None”. Set it to one of the other options to show the tasks grouped into sections by the selected option.

Interestingly, I had the same issue start yesterday (or maybe the day before). I hadn’t changed the “Group by” setting, this just happened at some point during the day and I too thought it was some sort of bug.

I came here for the same problem. Interesting how this “Group By” just magically happened without any of us changing our settings. My sections were gone on the Web platform and the Desktop App. The only thing that gave me hope was seeing they were still appearing on the mobile app.

I don’t see a group by function.
