When posting to a forum or in your own profile? Jan 26, 2015

Hello Luke,

Are you having a problem affiliating your Twitter account with your ProZ.com profile, or are you unable to share a forum post you've made via Twitter?

Thanks in advance for clarifying.

Best regards,

Maria

Will let you know as soon as this is fixed Jan 26, 2015

Thanks for confirming.

It looks like there's currently an issue with being able to share forum posts through social media platforms at the moment of posting them. Development staff have been made aware of this problem, and I will be sure to let you know as soon as it's been resolved.

Best regards,

Maria

I'm getting the same error message as mentioned above. Is there a way to fix this?

Thanks!

3 years old and no updates... Mar 27

I reported similar issues with LinkedIn last year: http://www.proz.com/forum/prozcom_translator_coop/174545-social_networking_option_added_to_prozcom_forums_and_discussion_features.html#2624462

I also raised a support ticket in Jan 2017 and was told "Development, including adjustments and fixing-ups, may take some time but I promise to notify you here as soon as this has been resolved and tested or as soon as I have any news". Well, no updates up to now...

But obviously you have to get your priorities straight. The new light green menu bar is really cute, so everything's fine.
