Error Message When Publishing Profile

[#1]

I have successfully published one of my two profiles here but when trying to publish the second profile I am getting an error message (see attached screenshot). I have tried 4different browsers and have cleared all caches. This is my main profile for the work I do so it's standing in the way of me going forward with Upwork.

[#2]

I am sorry to hear that.

However, many of customers still like it.

In my opinion, Upwork is one of the best platform for freelancers.

Today, Apple developer platform also is in maintenance.

Nothing is perfect excepting God father in the world.

Please see that they are trying.

Again, I hope them to fix the problem that you encountered asap!

I have received this impersonal pre-written letter a few times already.  Can you show that you care by fixing the issue and sending a message that resolves the situation?

Hi, I'm having the same problem too. I tried resetting my cache and using a different browser but it made no difference. I'm new to this site and can't figure out how to submit a ticket for support so I'm hoping if I post here then a moderator will see and help. It's been about two weeks that I've been trying on and off, and it's still the same problem.

Thanks 🙂

Hi Heather,

You will need to complete your profile before you`re able to submit proposals. Please go to Settings > Contact Info > Location and add your full address. After this you will need to complete your profile up to 100%, to learn more about this check out this Help Article. Thank you.

Hi Goran

Thanks for your response. Sorry, I should have been more specific. My problem is that when I try to publish my profile, I get an error message. It says "We didn’t save your draft due to a temporary site error. Please try saving again."

So I have been unable to complete any of my profile unfortunately. 

Thanks,

Heather

Hi Heather,

Please try logging in with another browser and following the instructions I`ve shared in my previous post. If you`re still experiencing any problems let me know, thank you.

Hi,

I have received the same error when I'm trying to publish my translation profile. It says "We didn’t save your draft due to a temporary site error. Please try saving again." 

Appreciate your kind assistance.

Hi Atikah, 

Before I proceed, I wanted to check if this issue persists if you clear your cookies or use a different browser? 

Let us know so that our team can assist you further.

I'm a new user and since this thread pops in search results I'm passing along a bit of info.

Cache clearing, different OS, different browsers, etc did not fix my problem.

What worked for me is;  I placed my content into a text editor (not word doc or similar).  Use a text editor -notepad, textwrangler, brackets, whatever that strips out formated code.

Place copy into text editor and then copy/paste back into the Upwroks system.

This solved my issue.

Hello UpWork Community,

I've seen this issue posted a few times already, but I wasn't able to detect whether this has been resolved on the website, or if it requires one to submit a support ticket.

After creating my "Specialized Profile," I keep getting this error after I hit "Publish." Any pointers as to how long I need to wait or if I should report this in another section?

Error message: "We didn’t save your draft due to a temporary site error. Please try saving again."

Many thanks!

Hello Goran,

I am facing the same issue.  I have just started on Upwork and trying to build my profile here.  I have created one specialised profile and have reviewed all details but when I click Publish, I get "we are unable to save your draft due to temporary site error, please try again later".  I tried in 10-15 minutes interval a several times but still facing same issues.  I also cleared cache and cookies as you suggested and restarted my system as well but no luck.  If you can please help me on this?  Attached screenshot of the error I am getting.

Thanks,

Jay

Hello Upwork Community,

I'm trying to create specialized profiles from yesterday and having the same issue. I also cleared the cache of the browser and tried with private window but that didn't work either. Due to this, I'm unable to create new portfolio items within the portfolio section as well.

Thanks )

Hi Dana, 

I'm sorry for the inconvenience this has caused you. Before I proceed, I wanted to check if you have tried clearing your cookies, or using a different browser to see if the issue persists?

[#22]

Hi Avery, 

thank you for replying my question.
yes, I've tried those ways too, 
i've tried clearing cache, using incognito or private mode, using a different browser, also using a different computer (my office computer and my personal computer). the result is still the same.
I also tried changes my specialize profile description to be more attractive for the user.
please let me know if is there another way to fix it from my side, 

Dana

I am also experiencing this issue, I can't publish specialized profiles. Cleaning cookies or changing browser doesn't help.

I'm receiving the same issue--I've changed browsers, updated my profile, and cleared the cache/cookies--but the same message keeps appearing. What should I do to resolve this?
