In memoriam
Jul 13, 2007

The new Connect! panel on the home page tells me:
"According to the information in your profile, you may meet the eligibility requirements to submit an application for the following Connect! job(s)." It then shows me jobs in the following pairs:
Persian>English
Chinese>German
English>Japanese
English>Greek
English>Italian
French>English
English>Chinese
English>French
English>Canadian-French (x2)
English>Brazilian-Portuguese

I am not qualified to translate in any of these pairs.
Is it possible to opt out of having this panel shown on the home page, as can be done for unrequired forums? If so, I shall do so. ▲ Collapse

Thanks for the report, should be fixed now Jul 13, 2007

Hi Jack,

Thanks for reporting this glitch. It should be corrected now. Only Connect jobs that match your profile should appear to you.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Best regards,

Jason

Same here - fixed now Jul 13, 2007

Hello Jack,

I experienced the same problem, and was typing a support ticket when all of a sudden the homepage went back to its usual look. I cancelled the ticket, since the problem seems to have been solved.
Hope it's solved for you too!

Best,
Margreet
