Best guess Mar 10

Probably the "new ProZ" that ProZ has been teasing for years while staying true to its early-2000s look.

No Mar 10

I didn't know there was an upcoming new site to check out and even the current one (we're talking about ProZ.com, right?) has been very hard to check lately because it takes forever to load. Could it mean it is still worth to consider renewing my membership?

Don't the staff already know the answer to that question? Mar 10

My understanding was that you had to contact Jared for a link to access the new site.

Yes, I have checked it! Mar 11

There are many things I like about the new website. It looks more intuitive, colorful and has a great font now. I also see that the website is quicker to respond when using the features and looks cleaner. One of my favorite features is "learning and badges," which has new courses with links to share on social media. I also love that when I visit the Proz Pro Bono section, I find many tabs to learn about the organization and how to get involved. It has many updates that I really love!

On the other hand, there is much information that has to be updated from the current website. I cannot see the CPDs, curriculums, external websites, keywords, areas of specializations, KudoZ and BrowniZ points, among others. The characters of my name in Spanish are not correct; for example, the accent marks and ñ are not included or recognized by the new website. Last but not least, what you are doing is awesome and motivates you to keep improving the new upcoming site.

Have a great day ▲ Collapse

New version Mar 11

At the top of the home page I see an announcement saying:

A new version of this page is being developed. Try the new version.

The last part is a hyperlink to what is presumably "the new upcoming site".

https://www.proz.com/?index_ver=new

I had a look, but saw nothing that would keep me there in preference to the old site. Quite the reverse, in fact.... See more

So "Yes", but "No thanks." ▲ Collapse

That's the OLD "new site"... Typical mess ProZ©.
The NEW "new site" should be this one: https://www.proz.com/next/learn/courses (I am getting an error message on some pages... what a surprise!).
