    Not only are all of my hubs published, but all of them are featured.  When I tried to change hubs for spotlight list on my profile page, there was a hub not listed, yet it is listed on profile page with the rest of my hubs.   I then counted the list of hubs from which we choose for the spotlight to find that several of my hubs are missing from that  list.

      Make sure your graphics are about 260 pixels and at good resolution, or they won't spotlight

      Deborah is correct, that an image is required for the Hub to be listed.

        My images are either 300 or 350 pixels.  I took the first image out, and put another in that was the same size.

          What are the full dimensions of the image?

          200 pixels wide and 150 pixels tall. This means a Hub with an image 192x192 pixels, for example, would not be available via the drop-down.

    The hub I am after doesn't have any images, only youtube videos that are to the right of text capsules, not in the middle of my page. Thanks Deborah, but it isn't images.

      Add an image not bigger than 260 pixels
      They want images

    Deborah: I had an image, it was missing.  I removed the image, it was still missing.

    My pics in other hubs are 350 pixels, maybe less and no problem with most of them.  There is maybe 3 or 4 hubs missing from the list for the spotlight, so I can't add them.

    I'm telling you what they told me. Would you like me to post their email in reference to it?
    I'm trying to help you and I don't want to debate it.
    Why did you post the problem if you don't want a reply?

      Linda,
      Can you tell us which Hub is the problem?

  8. LindaSmith1 profile image60
    LindaSmith1posted 9 years ago

    The Examiner:  I removed, added, removed and added a totally new image, the same size as the previous one, and the hub magically appears  I have not recounted yet to see of all of them are on the list.  I have decided if something doesn't work, I simply won't use it.  Tired of the bugs!

    For what it is/isn't worth:   

    It was awhile ago now, but somewhere along the way I discovered that if I used Internet Explorer all the Hubs showed up on the list (and this was when I had a couple of hundred or so), but when I used Firefox they didn't. These days I can't really tell because I have so few Hubs and/or because updates have gone on with Firefox; but when it was going on with my Hubs (and it it wasn't a matter of just a day or two.  I just knew not to use Firefox, at least at the time) and to use IE.  Of course, none of this had anything to do with the whole thing about Squdoo transfers (etc.).  It was before any of that went on.  (Then again, it wasn't - like - a year ago either.  It was more recent than that.)

    Thank you Matthew

    Everyone, it is not a bug
    Hubpages has certain requirements before they will allow you to spotlight a hub.
    Just follow Matthew's link.
    It IS the images

      Matthew Meyerposted 9 years agoin reply to this

      So it is working fine now that you have an image that meets the requirements?

  13. LindaSmith1 profile image60
    LindaSmith1posted 9 years ago

    I give up.  My images are always at least 300 pixels.

    Old image was 300 x 300 pixels       
    New Image:  300 x 300 pixels
