My profile is not live yet

Troubleshooting

A profile waiting for a parent, for a payment, or hidden is out of the directory. Your account page says which.

  1. Open your account menu: if your profile is waiting for a parent or a payment, it says "Profile not live yet" under your name. Choose "Why my profile is not live". A hidden profile is not marked there: see Hidden below.
  2. Waiting for a parent or guardian: they agree through the link we emailed them. The banner at the top of the page can send it again.
  3. Waiting for payment: open Subscription from the account page and pay; the profile is published once the payment is confirmed.
  4. Hidden: sign in and open Privacy settings (Visibility) to show it again — this works even when it is your only profile.
  5. Until it is live, nobody can find or message it, and Saved searches and My connections are not available. The bell still shows notices about your account, such as a change to how you sign in.
