It sounds like you don't have these lines in /etc/default/ufw:
# set the default application policy to ACCEPT, DROP, REJECT or SKIP. Please
# note that setting this to ACCEPT may be a security risk. See 'man ufw' for
# details
DEFAULT_APPLICATION_POLICY="SKIP"

These were added in 8.10. Did this machine upgrade from 8.04 LTS? If so, did you merge the /etc/default/ufw changes properly?

Added gufw task as it's possible gufw might have had something to do with the line removal.

Hi Jamie,

  Thankyou, thankyou, thanks! Adding those lines fixed the bug AND fixed the lack of the rules showing up in my status window!
