I've just posted a job and trying to get all the criteria right I went back and forth between the pages. Whenever I went back to a screen, it appears that all fields reverted back to the default however many times I changed these...

Somehow, I can't remember being given the option to not restrict the applicants by ProZ membership which now appears to be a criterion for my job. Looks like I'll just have to close this job and post a new one....

This is getting a bit ridiculous Jul 1, 2010

I've just re-posted the job and made sure anyone can quote. Still the job is posted as restricted to members....

One last try...

If you need help posting a job, support is the place to go Jul 1, 2010

Hi Madeleine,

The member-only (or not) requirement is at the bottom of the first page of the job post form, under "Service provider requirements (optional)".

If you're having trouble posting a job, support staff can probably better help you via support request than in the forum.

Best regards,

Jared

Finally Jul 1, 2010

Thanks Jared, I know exactly where the selection of options is located. I ticked the option I wanted a number of times, but it constantly reverted to the default 12 hours alternative.

However, finally I've managed to post the job I intended.

It used to be the case, certainly, that the system would automatically restrict jobs to members only if a large number met the other criteria. It happened to me when I posted a Fr-Eng job a couple of years ago.
