i have been struggling for months to change my profie visibility status from private to public but no mattter what i do, i can't seem to change the status. i don't see any scroll down menu to change the profiel visbility to public. i submitted a request here at the forum and some how miraculously, the profile status did change to public, but within 24 horus and after consuing at least 28 connects, the profile went to privat eagain, i reach out to the automated AI chat support and they say , submit a ticket direclty to support team and i have no way of reaching out to the support team, 

it's so frustrating.

Hi Waqas,

I’m sorry to learn about the issue you've experienced with updating your profile visibility and you weren’t able to contact the Upwork Support Team directly. I'm happy to help. To update your profile visibility to public, you can take these steps:

1. Select Profile > Profile Settings
2. Choose a visibility option from the dropdown menu

For further guidance, you can visit this helpful article.  

In case you need to access our support services in the future, it would be best to follow the steps below:

1. Navigate to the Help Center’s navigation bar and select the “Contact Support” option.
2. Choose the “Chat with Upwork” option to initiate a conversation with our chatbot.
3. Type in a question or topic and click “Send.” The chatbot will provide relevant articles related to your question.

We strongly encourage everyone to engage with the chatbot to access the available support options. Asking for assistance directly may not provide sufficient information for the chatbot to be able to assist you appropriately - for example, creating a ticket for you with the right team according to your concern.

This is not helpful.

you are giving me the same information that i already shared.

the profile setting doesn't give me a scroll down menu to select public
from private .

the chat bot is dead and doesn't know **Edited for Community Guidelines**!

it keeps telling me to contact support but never shows me how to get in
touch with the support team since the only after i have avaialble is a
stupid chat bot.

and i can't even submit a ticket,

so unless you can help me fix this, i am really frustrating and lost as to
how to solve this.

thank you

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.

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.
