Hi all,
If you are a new freelancer and don't earn money on Upwork within 90 days of your first proposal, or you choose not to submit a proposal within your first 90 days, your profile will change to private.
When your profile is set to private it is not shown in freelancer search results but rest assured, clients are still able to see your profile when you submit proposals!
You can switch it back to public by simply logging out and back into your Upwork account again. Note: Your profile will be automatically reset to the visibility option you had. (The options are public, only to other Upwork users, or private.)

Hi Waqas,
I am sorry to hear that the troubleshooting steps did not help and that you experienced the issue while reaching our support team. I will be happy to look into this for you.
I checked your account and it appears that your profile is set as an Exclusive agency member. In this case, you will need to switch to your agency account and go to Find Work > Agency Roster to edit your profile visibility.
For now, I have changed your profile visibility to Public. You can try the above steps to see if you are able to change your profile visibility yourself. Feel free to message us if you need further assistance.

Hi! I tried logging out and then back in, but my profile is still set to private. Would it be alright if you guys changed it so public? Thanks 🙂

Hello,
My profile's visibility is also set to private and I can't change it, I also don't seem to be able to change my hourly rate

Hello Omar,
Thank you for reaching out to us. It looks like you are an exclusive agency member and that your agency has set your profile visibility to private.
I’d recommend discussing this with your agency owner or agency administrator as they can reset your profile visibility to “Public” from their end. You may also share this helpful link for more details about how to Manage the Agency Roster and Visibility.

You can't turn on this badge because your profile is set to private or unavailable.
Kindly set it to public

Hi Raheel! Log in to your Upwork account then click your profile, go to settings then find profile settings, once u find it click it then turn the visibility to public or upwork users if you want. that's all

Hi team,
I want to use availability badge but it says: "You can't turn on this badge because your profile is set to private or unavailable."
