At the invitation in my email today, I signed up for the 90-day-challenge. The invitation took me to the 90-day-challenge page. You are asked to choose a language. I chose Italian and signed up.
Then I went to my 90-day-challenge profile page. The Progress Snapshot showed a button for Spanish. When I clicked on it, thinking I would change it to Italian, there were no other choices.
Obviously, if the 90-day-challenge keeps track of my work in Spanish, I will make no progress whatsoever during the next 90 days. I am studying Italian, not Spanish.
I should clarify - the profile page Iām referring to is my 90-day-challenge profile page. My āhomeā profile page, the one I see when I click on the Learn button, does show my progress in Italian. I donāt understand why the two Progress Snapshots are different from one another.
No, no - thatās not your profile page - thatās just a kind of community page with sample stats. Your actual 90day one IS the one on your home profile page. Phew! Donāt worry, I made a fool of myself the other day - I couldnāt work out why on earth my language certificate didnāt display - until Alex pointed out that I couldnāt see the certificate link until I earned it - ie. had gone beyond beginner 1 level. Hahaha!
Thank you. Yes, my āhomeā profile seems to be fine. (See comment below.) Itās the 90-day-challenge profile that is problematic. Perhaps I should just ignore that one, but I assumed that viewing my profile on the 90-day-challenge page would give me a different slant on things than does my home profile page.
Ah. Thank you. The best way to learn is to make mistakes, isnāt it? Obviously Iām still confused by this 90-day-challenge, then. Maybe I should watch those videos. Iām so impatient, and videos take so much time!
Youāre welcome. I accidentally gave you an extra rose - my fingers are clumsy today. Anyway, I wanted to add that the 90day profile page is just a shared community page for members to encourage each other or ask questions, etc.
If you scroll down, you will see entries from an earlier challenge that took place earlier in the year. At that time, everyone took part at the same time.
To clarify, your personal 90 day challenge goals and stats will show when you click on the last 7 days link (under your avatar on your home page) and choose ā90day challengeā. If you havenāt see it already, its showing that you have 22 known words, read 174 words & made 10 lingQs so far in your challenge. The numbers to the right show what the goals are set for you (based on your language and level).
Hi Alex. It was all user error - the helpful people below pointed out my misunderstanding. I thought what I was seeing on the 90-day-challenge page was my personal profile, not a sample page. It might help other slow learners like me if there could be some clarification of the layout of that page right there. Thanks!
Thanks. Also, I must have missed it, but it would also help to explain somewhere that the 90-day-challenge shows up as a button option in oneās personal Progress Snapshot. Someone had to point that button out to me, and also that the goals are right there as well. Other users may not need as much hand-holding as I seem to, though. The forum is a great help in that respect.
