New profile has dissapeared Thread poster: Jerónimo Fernández

Hiya.
I edited my profile yesterday and it seemed to me that it uploaded fine. However now the old version appears again
Have I messed up something? Can I recover it? (just guess: I didn't save the new profile anywhere, duh!!)
Thanks in advance

| Profile free text area | Mar 23, 2006 |
Hi Jerónimo!
Thanks for pointing this out, I made a change earlier today that put the two free text fields (background and specialization) into one field. Your changes should be visible now.
Sorry for the confusion!
Best Regards,
Justin

| Thanks & One question | Mar 24, 2006 |
Thanks Justin, it's back to new (if that makes any sense) now!
Now, question: Are specialization and background going to be merged permanently or this is just a trial?
Thanks again,
Jero

| Availabilty calendar | Mar 24, 2006 |
Hi Justin,
I like the new profiles and I love the new availabilty calendar so much that I plan to use it and want to link to it from my own site. I would love to have a URL that points to the contact tab in visitor view.
Would
http://www.proz.com/?sp=profile&sp_mode=contact&eid_s=38122&visitor=1
do the trick?
Even bet... See more Hi Justin,

Even better would be a URL to the visitor view of the page I get when I click [more] underneath the availabilty calendar. Couldn't you make that page a real one, with an address, toolbars and a ProZ.com Home | Translator & Interpreter Directory header and all? Editing would be easier and I could link to it from my own site.
Regards,
Gerard ▲ Collapse

| Yes, they are to be merged permanently | Mar 24, 2006 |
Hi guys,
when I click on my name in the 'user info' box on the top left, I'm taken to the old profile. Is this nornal? I'm logged in.
I think you are talking about the new profile format that members can check (/profile) vs the current profile (/pro). Everything on the site is still pointing to the /pro link. When Jerónimo says 'new profile' he is referring to the new information he entered into his free text area a couple days ago. Sorry about the confusion.
Are specialization and background going to be merged permanently or this is just a trial?
Yes, these are going to be merged permanently. In essence, the two fields have been used for the same purpose over the years, a free text area for users to put in their own information. To achieve consistancy between the new and old profile *formats*, these two fields have been merged together.
Hope this answers your questions!
Best Regards,
Justin

| New profile page | Mar 24, 2006 |
Hi Justin,
I think that the colum showing:
Contact user: Email, ProZ.com messenger
Make payment: Paypal
User's local time: 24 Mar 16:58 GMT +100
is too close to the first column. If you'r not planning to use the third, empty, column, two columns would be better and easier on the eyes.
Regards,
Gerard
