How to show KudoZ in my non-working languages on the home page? 投稿者: Hilde Granlund

When I open proZ.com, I see the KudoZ questions in my working language pair. Is there any way to change this on a permanent basis without actually changing my working languages?
It is quite cumbersome to have to click around and select languages every time I for instance want to see KudoZ questions that go the other way; Norwegian->English

Even if I don't trust myself to translate anything professionally into English, that does not mean I would not be able to learn a lot from questions posted in this pair, or even from time to time come up with an answer - particularly about medical terminology.
What I would really like is to have a few optional pairs that I can open with just one click.
Maybe that already is the case and I just don't see it?

Hi there, Hilde
When the questions page is open, there should be your language pair in a drop-down menu at the top. Click on it, and the reverse pair should be visible.
If not, you'll probably need to amend the settings in your profile (something like "my language pairs").
As for the term search page, you'll see an option right underneath the two language drop-downs:
"Also search reverse language pair (target into source)"

That will at least take care of Norwegian->English

Hi Hilde
What Francis proposes is: first you add an extra language pair in your profile, then it should appear included in "My languages" whenever you open the KudoZ page. OK.
But perhaps, for professional reasons, you don't wish to offer to the public the pair Norwegian>English as a "working" pair. If that is the case, then: you add that language pair to your profile, but keep it hidden.

As for me: on my profile I don't offer Spanish>German or Spanish>English for translations, but I have them hidden - nevertheless, in my KudoZ notifications settings I have selected "On" for those hidden language pairs, and every day I duly receive the KudoZ notifications for those pairs as well.

TOPIC STARTER | thank you, guys :-) | Jul 19, 2007 |
The "hidden" option will probably do the trick.
It is not enough to select the languages (and save settings) in the drop down menus, because then I have to do it again every time I turn the computer on.
Like Fabio, I don't want to be offered jobs in the reverse pair, I just want to see what's happening.
PS
Yupp
That did it. Thanks again
