Post title: Just an idea ...

Instead of testing new code on "live users" could developers please make some kind of offline "draft version of the new site" and test it BEFORE unleashing it on users?

Last time Proz was misbehaving I found a lot of 'test cookies', and once I deleted them Proz started working fine again (the old version).

Please check the notifications that came after my post. The issue was fixed today, sometime before I posted.

I've noticed this behavior in the notifications since yesterday evening.
That job was posted by a scammer, which surprises me a lot!
Isn't Proz monitoring this type of fraudulent job advertisement?

The job posting [url removed] has been removed by the site staff. As a result, you may see an error message stating: 'There is no longer – or not yet – a job posting in this database with that ID.'

ProZ.com staff does review many job postings; however, some may occasionally bypass the vetting process. Regarding this particular job poster, appropriate action has been taken.

Thank you.

I forwarded a job post to ProZ support that may have been a scam right before I entered my personal info into their portal. I never received a response which surprised me since I remember ProZ support being very reactive in the past. [/quote]

Hi David,

Thanks for the response.

I do not see recent job reports in the support system from your profile. Please submit a support request again and provide the job posting details for further review.

Thanks.

Yes, the same problem arises with KudoZ notifications, and it's a real nuisance!
Makes it impossible to tell at a glance what the key information is.
I hope this is just a momentary glitch, caused by some incident with updating code.
I hope it will be addressed quickly and corrected!
There are other more minor issues with the way pages display now too.
