I was waiting to see the change (already glimpsed at a while ago through link given in this forum) but to this day I still have the old format when I get on to ProZ.

Could someone look into it please?
Maybe I should have clicked somewhere or cut a ribbon...

Just preview Apr 4, 2006

As I understand it, the new profile format won't become available before May 2006. What we were shown was a preview of the new profile, so we could better raise our concerns or file for improvements.

If I am not completely mistaken, the old profile is what everyone else (including me) sees when coming to Proz.

Hello Ralph,

Thanks for quick response.

The above url takes me to: http://www.proz.com/profile/43848

where there is a page not found notice.

Teething trouble of course.

I leave it in your able hands..

TWO minutes later:

I can see that there is an extra *b* in the actual URL of the page reached: probfile/b/43848

I removed it and THEN my new page appeared.

Now, you know the problem!

Thank you Sonja: you are right in everything, but this is what Henry said and note the last two lines which I was bearing in mind:

"We will begin making use of the new display format as early as May. However, your current profile design will remain accessible thereafter (at the current "/pro" URL), so if you prefer it (or have given out the URL), you can continue to use it as-is.

On the other hand, if you prefer the new format, you will be able to start using it at the beginning of April."

So, I was on the starting blocks, see?

Hi Anabel,

The new profile format will be available to everyone (not just members) in the upcoming weeks. There will be an option for you to use the new format when visitors come to www.proz.com/pro/your_id . You can view what your profile will look like in the new view by visiting http://www.proz.com/profile .

Hi Cluadette,

You can view your profile page via http://www.proz.com/profile , Ralf's link had a tag in it that broke the link.

Also, please feel free to join in the discussion about the new profiles at the following thread - http://www.proz.com/topic/44605

Thanks for your support!

Best Regards,
Justin ▲ Collapse
