    I tried switching to the new hubpages profile page, but when I did, all it did was crash! Nothing is on my profile page at all! I can't access my hubs or anything! What is happening? Did I do something wrong?

    When I go to my profile, all I see is a blank page and words at the very top.

      Reboot. Get back to me. We will take it from there. smile

      Updates:

      Side note: I visited his profile. It is a shambles, not of his doing.

        Rebooted. Nothing has changed. What is happening here? I was hesitant about switching to this new profile design now everything is messed up!

        This has never happened to me on HubPages before!

          Go to my profile, see if profile update option is there for you.

              Oh my. This may be HP issue. What about at http://simonesmith.hubpages.com/ ?

                There is no option to upgrade to the new profile there either.

                Sorry if I did not reply right away.

      David I would email staff about this one. Your profile really has crashed, it's not just on your computer.

        How do I email the staff? I have never had a problem like this during my couple years of writing articles.

        Has anyone else experienced this yet or am I the only one?

      We had some issues this weekend and it appears your profile might have been a casualty. I, indeed, see the issue you are experiencing and have sent this to our engineering team to be addressed.

    Odds are 50/50 on resurrection without HP intervention.

    But it still can be done, even though on HP side.

                  My response to your post initiated both a rant and action. Not applicable here. But I do need to do some cleanup.

    Wow!  It's a big, dark gray box with only a banner!  Scary!  Never seen anything like it, but looks like the bugs continue!  Which is why I haven't ventured out into this next step.  I hope this gets fixed REAL FAST for anyone else getting into the new profile mode.

    I emailed the HubPages team. I can't believe this actually happened.

    Every time I am hesitant or paranoid about changing something I run into an issue. sad I really hope I get a reply from HubPages soon because this is quite a major issue.

    Everything else seems to be in order (my account etc), but access to my profile page seems impossible at the moment.

    I have not seen anyone else report a problem like this yet.

    That is really odd.  Somehow that stray code is inserted before the document head on your profile.

    Weird how that would only happen to one person!

          I see. A lot of these forum posts are older, though, but nonetheless, it was the same problem.

          Obviously switching to the new profile page caused this issue. But I wonder if someone is in the same predicament as me when switching to the new HP interface.

            7 hours later and this issue has not been fixed. Guess no-one from engineering was on duty overnight.

                  On a side issue the related song was written by a group of us in a pub in Canterbury and then stolen and got to number1.. we sued and won all the proceeds to give to charity.

    Some of the updating appears to work fine in Profile ,others not so ,like the background pic feature.

    Maybe it looks different outside of HP...beats me.
