psychicbunny Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 I’m noticing some of my new orders have a description called "What industry does this order relate to? " where my clients have to fill in as well before they complete their order requirements. Has anyone else noticed this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djgodknows Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Negatory. I have however heard of the “Private Feedback” and skill endorsements post delivery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emeraldawnn Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Yep, and for some this may matter, but to me, I’m finding it more of an annoyance. I don’t know why but it is for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overror Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 No. i havn’t noticed but will notice now on new order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dianagrigore Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Yes, noticed it as well today - went to edit the gig to see if I have any options for that, but nothing’s there.We’ll just have to wait for more info on that I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfpgogo Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I just came to the forum specifically to see if I could find out what that is because I saw it on an order just placed with me as well. It’s really not necessary for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djgodknows Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Yup. Just saw it for my latest order.Now have to figure out how to advise all future clients to direct my gig to the PROPER category. :oThank you Fiverr, for pulling a Facebook on us!

donnyvoice Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Yes, I’m noticing it today on my Voiceover orders. It appears Fiverr is testing out a new feature here. I’m not sure if it’s necessary for my category, but I’m sure there’s a good reason they’re doing it, and I’m sure things will be smoothed out quickly with it. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
consultantindia Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Yes, I did notice this dumb question in one of my orders and opened a support request to find more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babibalubi Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Final question: Is it a bug, or is it a feature? 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djgodknows Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I believe it is a temporary feature until made permanent to gauge where Buyers are coming from.This could be a market analysis survey, so the marketing team gets some metrics for enhancement of Fiverr marketing.

chicagowriter Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 so it will not affect the nature of our gigs?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpark_clt Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 I have noticed this on an intermittent basis too in the last week, just got another order that had this in there… But not all have it. strange… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyaxrex Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 I think this would work better if it was the responsibility of sellers to fill in this section on delivery.Many buyers would struggle as it is to fill in order details and all mine have so far selected ‘other’ for this.In reality, what today’s deliveries should have been reported as was, real estate, transport & logistics, and fake male potency pill vendors. - Then again, ‘other’ probably does cover the last one pretty well.

djgodknows Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Letting sellers do this would provide with a diluted and inadmissible survey metrics.But most buyers are clicking other, so the method seems to be dysfunctional anyways.Unless they can list a thousand categories (including fake male potency pill vendors)… lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misscrystal Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Why even ask this question? Is it so that they can refine the many categories of skills on the profile page? It seems someone thinks all sellers should fit into neat boxes, when the emphasis at one time was on being unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmaki Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Such is the nature of a parasitic relationship. Go gobble up the host like the good parasite you are. Be sure to emit a moan that sounds like 20% along the way.And yes, I think it’s nonsensical bullshit, but it’s trivial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misscrystal Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 I have people fill in something different every time. One filled in banking and finance for my money spell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odeseo1 Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 I think the option is for the buyer however, I’m concerned it doesn’t get the buyer confused… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misscrystal Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Buyers think the question is part of my questions for them.Yes they are confused by it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eleonoravaiana Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 I was wondering if maybe under trance I put the question, finding this thread answered my question. Anyway yes, I’m experiencing the same! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smsservice4 Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 yes i have also niticed and the order counting time is not start until the buyer post the requirement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miiila Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 I saw this today in an offer I sent too. And yes, I´m pretty sure it will get a lot of buyers confused, there are enough confusing things already really, would be better to work on making those clearer than to add another confusion.

miiila Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Interesting. In the history of the order it appeared with me for the1st time today, I see this:<<What industry does this order relate to?No answer was provided for this requirement>>And since I did and delivered that order right away, obviously the timer had started and it worked ok.BUT I sent two more offers to the same buyer, and those two don´t show up under my dashboard ‘to-do’-tab, as orders normally use too. I can see, and pull them up over the dashboard ‘notifications’-tab. That´s pretty inconvenient, workable if you have fewer taller orders rather than many small ones, but inconvenient still.Or is that another bug/feature, that if you send multiple offers to the same client in a row (for things that are due with different timeframes), only one shows up under to-dos and the others not?
