my hubs are all categorized as "orphan"?
What? Where and How? to change this?
Thanks,
Ecoloqui
My account, Groups, Add New Group, then add your hubs to related groups.
Apart from your old hubs (as told by Shina) send your new hubs to some group or make a new one.
Click the add new group button at the top, type the name you want for your group (whatever your hubs are about or will be about i.e. book reviews etc) then click add new group and go to the box below and click on an orphan hub and slide it into the category you want it in, then save changes and voila
Thanks for info To Start Again. I happened upon the same 'orphan hubs' box and needed to 'g' the articles up a little. Reassurance they are mine helped.

In "Manage Groups," I have several (all?) of my hubs listed. I categorized them before writing them, so I don't understand why they're categorized as "orphan."My question is, how do I get my poor hubs out of orphan status?Thanks!

Hi everyone! Today we released an update to the Hub Groups interface in My Account. The new interface closely matches the About the Author UI and should be familiar to many of you. Please note that we did not make any functional changes to Hub Groups (such as integrating it with About the Author)...

Alright, I have ... well, quite a few I thought when they were written, and use the category and sub-category thingy that Hubs were then 'grouped'. So how did these 'orphans' end up as such?

Can someone please explain to me what an "orphan hub" is?I thought I assigned all my hubs to groups before I published them. So what is the significance of them being classified as orphan hubs?

For example if one of my groups is 'Food' and I click my 'How to make easy Pumpkin Soup' to go there , shouldnt it go there and stay there?Same with other nominated catergories, they wont or dont link all up?Ive read HP do dah on groups ,and it should be working right.Just wondered if anyone did...
