resolved this with the help of steffan..

i had mistakenly installed the preferences plugin over the top of my 4.1 install of twiki and that broke things.. i copied over the 4.1 versions of this plugin and everything is working again. thx Steffan!!

Glad you got it to work again The status drop down is only visible when you're editing the page - I've changed it to answered.
