Can't Finish My Profile

I'm trying to complete my profile, and every time I click "Preview Profile", it takes me back to the "Expertise" section, even though I've filled out all required fields. I've already tried inconginto, clearing cookies, and different browers. Not sure what the problem is.

Hi Nicolas,

 

It looks like you didn't select the main category of the service you're offering. Could you please try choosing the appropriate category from the drop-down menu to see if this will resolve this issue?

 

Let us know if the issue persists.

When I do go through the profile process, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to proceed in the first place without selecting a category, so that is not the issue. It'll still take me back to the "Expertise" tab while still showing that I have selected a service category. To be fair, if I log out and then log in again, that tab will reset and show no category selected. However, every time I press "Preview Profile", it doesn't reset. It just takes me back to that tab.

Hi, I'm also having similar issues. I have filled all that needs to be filled and it keeps telling me to preview the profile. Please what do I do? I've previewed over and over again

I see in another thread that Upwork just updated some skills categories (and eliminated some). Perhaps the profile interface has yet to adjust to these changes.

I'm having the same problem as all of you.... I am in a perpetual loop trying to finish the profile.  There is no end - either it is the category I have to re-input or it is my address.  Help me get off this merry go round of frustration, please!

I'm having the same issue and I'm  100 percent submitting everything correctly. 

I have been unable to publish my profile. I get stuck in a never ending loop on the last three pages. It asks for my category, rate and profile picture. When I click the button to "check my profile." It boops me back all over again. How do I publish?
