Not sure if it was just a glitch with one of my bio's but I had one appear on a hub that was nothing to do with me or the hub!
I have changed it now, so you can't see it, but it was a hub about funny English old sayings, and the bio read something like this:
We all love magic sometimes to obsession! now that was not mine so.......lol!
better check your bio's in your account settings, maybe someone else's has sneaked in!
Thanks for the heads up, Nell. It's a bit scary to think someone else's bio can get through to our password driven pages.
Hi Nell.
I will check mine now, if I can remember how to do it after all this time LOL :-)
Good to see your name pop up on notifications .
Oh, my, Nell, that is a strange one indeed! LOL. Thanks for the heads up. I had two "Best" answers chosen on a hot topic question that I didn't choose! HP looked into it and removed them for me. So odd and disturbing that things can happen like this under our name account when it is not us!
Oh, I just finished setting up my first bio and found your post in my feed. Thanks for bringing up this issue. I would check mine too if something isn't right have sneaked in.

I have checked a few of my articles over the course of a week, not all of them but most of the popular ones, and I noticed that when I put them in Google search they only show up through another link such as Pinterest or Twitter. They seem to have totally disappeared apart from that. Any help you...

As your thread is closed now, I answer you here.I'm sorry to know a hub was written about you. I didn't read it. It must be unpublished.Anyway, I like the way he writes. I wanted you to know I'm following him, but not because of that hub, which I'm sure I would have found disgusting.Why someobody...

What will cause a hub to not have the "featured" icon on a member's HP account screen?All but three of my published hubs show the "featured" icon on my HP account. Since two of them are seasonal, I can understand their not being featured (I suppose), but the other one is short...

This has probably been addressed elsewhere but I haven't found the answer yet. Is it ok to post a link to your own hub in the comments section to someone else's hub on the same or similar subject? I just found such a post in a comment on one of my hubs and don't know whether its a good...

I just found out that one of my hubs was copied into someone else's blog on YouSayToo.com. I saw other hubs from fellow hubbers listed as well in the same person's blog (Scorpion360). I read the site's terms of service, and it seems like they are only supposed to have unique and original content,...
