smashradio Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 (edited) After complaining for a while on the forum, and reaching out to the lovely product manager, Noa, and the UX people at Fiverr, our wishes have been heard. The seller navigation has suffered long enough. At times, it felt like boxing with your computer and the ever-growing list of items, tickers and submenus made it a nightmare to navigate Fiverr with the old menu. A few months ago, I got to demo the prototype for the new menu. Now that it's here, I just want to take a moment to thank the staff for always improving the platform. This was sorely needed, and you did a great job! Edited August 10, 2022 by smashradio 17 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabinespoems Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Me looking at everybody who already has the new menu whilst I'm still in cluttered navigation-land 😪 I know my time will come so indeed it's nice to see Fiverr does make changes and keeps improving itself! 10 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This looks great. Obviously I don't have access to it yet. When it comes to improving the platform... Fiverr still allows people to order up to 20x your gig packages, and sellers are unable to turn that on or off. It's a problem that has been around since the beginning, but still no solution... 6 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a problem that has been around since the beginning, but still no solution... A way around this is to write in your description that they must contact you before ordering. I had that on a gig, and CS canceled the order without affecting my stats since the seller didn't contact me first and placed lots of multiples. But I agree. That's a stupid problem to have. In fact, I would like to see more ways for us to customize our gigs, like being able to remove the "Order now" button and replace it with a "Contact for a quote" button.

fklily77 Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 This navigation bar is also coming to my profile. New to fiver so I don't understand anything. Thank you, everyone. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more a way to cancel the order without getting punished than it is a deterrent for buyers ^^ 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greggidneyvo Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Please help. I'm looking for a way to put the tabs back where they were. It's very distracting to have to look for things now. Not a fan of the new look.... Please let the se4llers decide by offering a way to choose the new look, or the old look. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theratypist Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I'm afraid the layout right now is not something we can modify on our end... You can try to share your concerns to Customer Support though and they can relay it to the team support@fiverr.com 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should at least allow the UI to offer the "Classic Look" like most platforms. There's alot to be said for 'muscle memory' and how it interferes with your workflow to minimize frustration 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The necessity to hunt and play around for a while to get use to it is going to be 'ugh', but this change was necessary. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm 100% sure that everyone who complained would go nuts about how "ugly and useless" it is if it got changed back. Same thing here. Give it a few weeks, and you'll get used to it. The old menu was far worse. The new one is a clear improvement, even if certain things are now in submenus. Want a quick solution because you don't like getting used to new things? I recommend the favorites bar in your browser. I have all my most used pages on there. Most browsers can even support different profiles with different sets of bookmarks.
