  1. Will this affect gig ranking? In the past when a category was changed it would affect the ranking severely.
  2. I saw some people on twitter with the same issue. So I agree, it will most likely be resolved by Fiverr soon.
  3. Same here. It's weird. I delivered an order and it's now showing up under the delivered tab on Manage orders. But when I click on the order the timer is still running. Sometimes I get an empty screen when I click the order.
  4. So time extensions have become completely useless if you think about it. You would use time extension to avoid a late delivery and to avoid a penalty in ranking. You would of course communicate this to the buyer and come to an agreement about the new delivery time. But now you are getting a penalty anyway using the time extension and the worst thing about it is that the stats on your dashboard will not show this penalty. A seller won't even know if he's doing something wrong. You also don't know exactly how long you need to wait before the penalty is gone. (I assume 60 days like the other penalties) The 12 hours to deliver message also gives a (hidden) penalty now. I'm not 100% sure but I do feel it gives a penalty. This means in essence that the deadline of your project is now 12 hours sooner. It's like a new deadline. Before you got a penalty when it got late and now it's 12 hours earlier. I would assume that the '12 hours to deliver' message is less severe of a punishment then the late delivery. I won't be using time extension ever again that's for sure and focus on less orders to get them done before the 12 hour message pops up. I mean I think it's better for your buyers anyway and gives a better experience for your buyers. So I can understand that Fiverr did this. At the same time I feel it would be best to be transparent to all sellers and mention these penalties in the dashboard just like late deliveries and responsiveness for example.
