Websites require constant maintenance and improvements Sep 6, 2023

When I use Chrome, I keep getting logged out every time I open a new tab.

So I had to move to another browser for Proz. So far, only a minor nuisance.


Login issues may be related to cookies (or even an antivirus). I see that you submitted a support request about this in 2020 and Karen, one of our support providers, suggested a few tips. If you tried those and the issue persists, please feel free to re-open your support request. I will personally take a look.

Just curious - what exactly are these "improvements and updates" supposed to achieve?

Apart from letting tech geeks to play with some new programming toys?


Websites require maintenance, and maintenance sometimes calls for improvements or updates. This is not new, or exclusive to ProZ.com. Trust me, ProZ.com developers, as well as the entire site staff, take our jobs very seriously. We understand we serve members worldwide, 24/7, and we are committed to member success.

I'm truly sorry that the updates we are working on may be affecting some of our services and their performance, but we are doing all we can to fix this in the most effective way.

I appreciate your understanding.

Lucia

Publication timestamp & non-paying members Sep 7, 2023

It's not a bug, but it would be great if comments or threads posted by non-paying members
would be published and therefore ranked according to their actual publication time after vetting,
rather than with their submission time, which can cause them to be missed.

Thanks! Sep 7, 2023

I was able to reproduce the issue you mention, TargamaT team. I have asked developes to fix it.

As for email notifications, we are aware of the problem. A team of developers has been working to resolve it and should have news soon. I'll post back here as I get an update from them. Thanks for your patience.

Can you please try again, TargamaT? Developers informed me it was fixed, I tested it and it worked for me, but I just want to make sure it works for you and others as well. Thanks!

Anyone else having problems with profile updater? Sep 8, 2023

Went to update the Software section.
Maybe should have smelt a rat when it was greyed out, but I clicked and got it active.
Used to have memoQ & Wordfast
Wanted to add Trados.
Clicked Add-> and then Save and update at the bottom of screen.
Now I have no Software at all.

Tried with Opera and Chrome, same result

ChatGPT in Kudoz Sep 11, 2023

It seems that many consider ChatGPT in Kudoz to be worse than a bug.
99,9% of the time it delivers garbage.
Will Proz take members' comments on its answers seriously?

One of the most common statements is that they will stop being paying members.
Just look here for exam

Just look here for example: https://www.proz.com/kudoz/english-to-spanish/medical-general/7151410-flip-flop.html

Proz's reputation suffers through this developer gimmick.

Not to disagree with you, but I think it's worth considering that if the site didn't use ChatGPT, other people would, and doubtless be a lot less open about the source of their answer.
I get the points about it being a bit of gimmick and some of the answers being rubbish, but in a sense, they're damned if they do and damned if they don't. Just disagree with the rubbish answers, and it is a public comment on ChatGPT's quality for others to learn from. More transparent than if the site had dozens of users posting ChatGPT responses without acknowledging the source, which would, I am sure, be the case otherwise.
