You know the little goals area, where it tells you your word count and helps you aim towards writing more or including more in your hub? That's not there, and hasn't been for my past three hubs that I've written.
However, when I go back and edit old hubs, there it is!
So I wonder if I've just clicked on something to hide it and now I can't find it again, or if it's a glitch.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
I think it depends on the format you chose. I guess choosing something related to articles and writing shows that word count thing and poetry format doesnt
But I have since written another informative article, (it's not featured yet so won't show up on my page) and that didn't have the widget either.
I'm not really sure. Judging by the fact that im new to hub pages.
No problem. At least it doesn't hurt to help
Hi Amy,
It usually only shows up when your hub is in "edit" mode. Is it showing up then?
No, it isn't showing up when I initially create the hub, nor is it show up when I go back to edit the hub after it has been published.
Like I say, the older hubs that I've written do show it. I wonder if it as glitch unique to my computer?
Amy, the "Need Some Goals?" box will not show up on poetry hubs. Your last two hubs are poetry -- are they the ones you are speaking of that the 'goals box' is missing?
Yes that's where they are missing.
So I tried making another hub under a different topic, chose a design template, and still the tab isn't appearing.
I think I broke it xD
I just created a hub yesterday and it was there. Perhaps it is just your computer, or perhaps your browser?
Perhaps.
I've tried taking a look in another web browser, still no success though. I have no idea what's going on.
Amy, I had the same problem a few months ago. You can see the forum at:

If your answer is not there, then post in the technical issue forum:

Fantastic, thank you. I'll see if I can find a solution
Is it a video Hub?
In what category is it assigned?
Can you share the title as well?

I had to edit one of the hubs because one of my links was my Glorious Money Tree story and it didn't relate to my story. I deleted the link and re submitted.It was a recipe hub. My new hub I just submitted was a recipe hub but I also talked about my upcoming chapter for the story, so I...

Usually when I publish a new Hub I find that Google picks it up within 24hours. I've even seen it happen it in less than 2 hours on an odd occasion. This past week though I have published 5 Hubs. Each one has taken at least 3 days to get found by Google, two of them still have not...

What Makes One Hub "Featured" and Another Not?Every article I've written so far has gotten the little black "featured" icon. Just recently a few of the articles I've written have been published but not received the featured picture next to them. Does anyone know why?

Can I link to other articles I've written on the web?I also have articles on another writing site. Can I link to them if the subject matter is relevant to the hub I'm writing?
