Are the DS 230 and DS 2100 forms still required to be faxed/emailed/delivered to the US Embassy in Bogota? The forms are listed in the information page on Visa Journey but I do not see them listed in the Instruction and Appointment Packet - Fiancee K Visas (Packets 3 & 4)...

No, those forms are no longer needed since they changed the interview scheduling process. Now the beneficiary has to follow the instructions posted on the US embassy's website, pay visa at the bank with forms DS-156 & DS-156K and once the fee is paid, they can go online to make the appointment.

Ok thanks... I read the instructions and I figured the old forms had been superceded just wanted to double check. The interview fees can be paid online. Where do the 156 and 156K go once they are filled out? Or are they just kept on hand until the interview?

As per their instructions, they need to be brought in to the interview:

Applicants should not sign any of these forms but should bring all three pages of the DS-156 (including the third page that contains a barcode) and, if required, the one-page DS-156K forms to the interview. Applicants must attach one photograph to each copy of the DS-156 form before they arrive at the embassy.

If your process is a Fiance visa, K1, you do not need this forms. I had the same questions and embassy replied that they are not required. All you do is follow the steps, pay for the appt interview and bring them to your interview.
