still got old profile
I have not noticed any changes whatsoever on my profile.
To see the new profile, you just need to change "pro" to "profile" in your old url (in your case: http://www.proz.com/profile/11013 ). You can then set it as default by clicking the link on top of your profile page.

Good luck!

Hi Jane,
That's what I did! But the new layout does not become my new version by default right now. Shouldn't it show up once I click on my username in Proz.com page, upper left margin "User info" box?
Will appreciate your directions (or anyone's who might have already set his/her new profile). Thanks a lot!

Marius Valiukas
I agree completely with your assessment of the possible misinterpretations of "available" and "not available," so I'm delighted with "partially available." To me, it says just exactly what I want to say: "I'm a busy, active, competent professional translator. I always have work to do, but I'm not totally swamped right now, so if you have a project for me I would be glad to hear from you."
Then, of course, I can change to "available" for a few days when business is slow, and to "not available" when I have a tough deadline or when I'm traveling. Perfect!
As to "a little bit pregnant"--well, I'm assuming you've never been pregnant at all! One is always either "pregnant" or "not pregnant," but there's a bi-i-i-igg difference between 1st trimester (when one is still slim and agile) and 3rd (NOT!).
;-D

OK, you've done the first step right. Now you need to follow Enrique's directions again to get to the new format. Once you're there, go to the very top and click on something like "Make this your default format." I can't remember the exact wording because I've already changed mine. After you do that, an option appears that would let you change back, if you like.
Later: Sorry, McN, I confused you with italia (from the previous page). I have no idea why your new profile format isn't showing. I clicked on your name and, you're right, it's the old format. I can only suggest going back to the new format and looking to see what options are showing at the top.
saludos de Puerto Rico...
Jane

| N/A and Custom tabs - suggestions | Apr 28, 2006 |
I hope the ProZ.com Staff is still checking on this thread as I have a few suggestions:
1. Could you please make it possible to toggle the visibility of Software, Memberships, Glossaries and Credentials? This has been mentioned a couple of times (we already can do so for KudoZ, BB and Project History). N/As don't look good and only make the standardized info box longer

2. I checked the Custom tabs feature. It's great but why is the text I enter centered? Can you please change it?
I think I'm slowly getting used to the new Profile. At first I thought I'd stick to the old one, but who knows

Hi!
Suggestion:
Further to Joanna's message above, I would also suggest an option to toggle the visibility of the portfolio section if that is possible.
Comment:
I have the impression new profiles take longer to upload than old formats, or is it just me and my computer?

My Skype contact link has suddenly disappeared on my new profile whereas it is still there on my old profile and I have not changed anything in the settings. Could ... See more Hi!

| | | | | Wrong Referrals | Apr 29, 2006 |
I set a referral: name of proz member, language pair, field.
Field is not working properly. I set field E, and it says field J.
If I set field "Business", it reads "Fisheries".
Something is not working properly. Please, fix it and let us know.
Thank u.
Walter

Sonja Tomaskovic wrote:
I was just trying to enter a list of referrals. However, when I choose a specialty the resulting entry shows a completely different field of expertise.
Example:
I chose medical (general), while the saved entry showed folklore. When I chose biology, the result was arts (Kunst, Kunsthandwerk; the results appear in German).
A bug?
I just noticed that Sonja noticed the same problem on the 20th and no answer yet. So, I am republishing her message too.
Please, kill the bug. Bang, Bang.

I discovered that all I asked for has been addressed
and is "more functional" than I wanted it.
Thanks a lot!

My original posting
..... however, the site lists my fields in alphabetical order, and "education" is shown first, even on Google .....
I do not want to delete it from my fields.
I do not want it to appear first.
This has been fixed too, again, a bit better than I expected.
Thank you.

2. I noticed the new field: Conferences Attended. I like it, it's a nice addition. I've made it visible, but in the visitor's view it's still in italics and on a blue background (as if it was invisible although it IS showing). The same happens when I try hiding it.
3. Could you bring back the red font for the status of open questions in the KudoZ section (Asked and Answered)? It really helps to fish them out.
Still waiting for the toggle visibility problem to be solved
Anyway, it's really getting better and better! Thanks again.

In memoriam
Am I correct in assuming that I am going to have to change my local time when the US switches between daylight and standard times? All I see are GMT +/- hours, and when I set it to the current (DST) value, the time is correct. This needs to be addressed, unless I missed it on the list. I know it's a programming hassle, but it should be done right.
Also, entering longitude and latitude is very user unfriendly. I will display a map when ProZ is able to get it from where I live....

Hi Justin,
It seems the visitors counter is not working again (at least in the new format). It`s on and off. I checked with friends, asked them to visit my profile but they were not registered,
A resucitated bug? Could you kill it please?
Thank you.

Project History has proved to be a very useful feature.
However, it is hard to see and to get at in the new profile.
Yes, I know you can set it so that any visitor can see a summary on the front page. But this is not enough. If the visitor wants to read or to know more, he/she has to investigate how to do it, find out that he/she has to click on the + "Click for standardized information", scroll down, find Project History and again click on the + sign.

I wonder if it wouldn`t be easier, faster, nicer, friendier, to have just a PH tab as we used to have in the old profile.
PH is a feature that deserves to be higlighted, not hidden.
I`d appreciate it if you do something about this, please. ▲ Collapse
