The "Skills" section of the profile is so buggy.

Hello,

 

I've been having trouble with the "Skills" section of my profile for the last 3 days, whenever I delete a skill or move it or add a new one and hit "Save", when I refresh the profile nothing is changed! The old skills are still there.

 

I've tried removing the cache and cookies and still have the same issues.

 

Also sometimes when I add a new skill it won't even save and it will throw me this error message:

"There was an error loading this page: error [7347f2ac5ad994f4-LIS, 7347f2ac5ad994f4-LIS]. Contact Upwork Support for more information."

Hi Andrea,

Do we have any idea how long will this take to be solved? It's been over 2 weeks and a lot of freelancers (including me, in all different browsers) are getting the same issure. Skills are obviously a crucial part of a freelancer profile when posting for a job, so we need this solved asap.

Thank you so much.

I think something is wrong from the Upwork platform side of things. I have also experienced this issue, cleared my cache, tried troubleshooting it on my own, etc. The error reads: 

There was an error loading this page: error [740f14be8efbd414-SEA, 740f14be8efbd414-SEA]. Contact Upwork Support for more information. 

This happens when editing skill set.

 Hi there! When updating the skills in the profile, I have a technical error, because of which I cannot update this data. This error has been present for several weeks. The following message appears:

There was an error loading this page: error [74249876bf0977ad-SEA, 74249876bf0977ad-SEA]. Contact Upwork Support for more information.

Please help me to solve this problem because my skills are completely out of date and I need to change them. Thank you.

Hi Nikola.

If I understood correctly, I only need to wait until the information about my request appears on the page Requests? There is no such information now. Thank you.

Hi Upwork Community,

I'm Lindsay,

I'm new here and it feels great to be here. However, I have an issue I have been battling with since 3 days now. I am a freelancer but I'm unable to edit my skills. I want to venture in a particular niche and bring down all other skills. I have been trying to remove other skills and by the time I recheck, it will still be the same set of former skills. It's unable to edit my new skills which is making me get clustered work feed. Please help on what to do. I have also cleared cache and used another browser but still no solution.

Regards,

Lindsay.

Hi there! I am having the same issue. Has anyone been able to fix this?

Hi Javiera, I haven't been able to fix it. Seems like Upwork support system only reply to some set of freelancers and ignore the others, because I have sent this message twice and no one has replied yet but they keep replying those who dropped a message even after me. Please if you get a solution, let me know. Thank you.

For some strange reason I was able to modify some skills now, but not all of them 😅
