logged in, and have admin powers on the domain
Additionally, if you're on a domain where you have admin powers, you'll have a link directly to your admin control panel, and you'll be able to see if you have any support tickets waiting.
The 
button on the right side of your nav bar will open up the menu area (and also close it again).
The nav bar can be styled to match the profile or community, which is why it will look different when you visit different boards.
The menu
When you click the navigation button, your menu area will open up. This gives you additional information and links to account and admin areas.
The menu is divided into 3 columns. We will split them up to talk about them individually below.
The left column - Manage your account and profiles
The profile and account management section is located on the left side of the menu.

The centre column - "Dashboard"
The central area of your menu is also referred to as the "dashboard", as it's a very useful and interactive part of the menu. It gives you quick access to your recent action - posts, comments, files, friends and communities.
If you're on a domain that you are owner or administrator of, then you have a fourth tab in this column. The admin menu only shows if you're on one of your communities.
