My client purchased a project and has sent the information via upwork DM.

However, there is no option for me to check the box (that he has sent the requirements). The 48 hour window will close in 24 hours. Please support so that the project is not automatically cancelled as client has sent me the items required.

If there is a video or a pdf manual that shows the box how he can send the items then please share the same.

Hi Ali,

One potential solution is to contact Upwork support and explain the situation to them. They may be able to assist you in resolving the issue and getting paid for your work.

It's also important to make sure that you have a clear and detailed contract in place before starting any work for a client. This contract should outline the scope of the project, the payment terms, and any revisions or changes that may be required.

In the future, you may want to consider asking for a partial payment upfront to ensure that you are protected in case the client decides not to pay. This can also help to establish trust with the client and demonstrate your professionalism and commitment to the project.

I hope this helps and that you are able to resolve the situation and receive payment for your hard work.

Been more than 2 weeks since I posted my project on upwork yet it still says that it's pending for approval. Does it usually take this long to review?

Hello folks! What do you think about the project catalog? Has anyone got their projects purchased? Personally, I consider this feature a part of the so-called hidden Upwork economy in pair with the personal-invite option.    

[bfehlinger]

I've had some people look at them and send me messages, but no one has ever purchased them. I am thinking of re-doing mine to see if I can attract any clients to them. 

What about you?

[celgins]

I think the Project Catalog is a nice feature that benefits freelancers and clients. Freelancers can create a pre-packaged service or product and sell it to clients who need those specific services/products. It's a streamlined process where the client can initiate work for the freelancer, but doesn't have to create a job description and field 50+ proposals that they often don't read.

Similar to Bethany, I have heard several freelancers say that their Project Catalogs are being viewed, but no purchases. You would think clients would love the Project feature since it avoids the bidding process and is similar to Invites.

The issue for many freelancers right now is that their Project Catalogs are slow to be approved. Upwork has noted a significant increase in the number of Projects being submitted. Upwork says the approval process usually takes 5 days, but many have not been approved after 10-15 days or longer.
