Where are my projects?
Hi,
I have a hard time finding my own projects. Why is it so difficult to find them when signed in? It should be the first thing I see!

Just click on your account name at the top right (after Signed in as
). This brings you to your own page which lists all your contributions.
However, you have to enter your contributions first so that Ohloh knows under which usernames you contributed to which project. Once you've done that, these will show up on the aforementioned personal page.
Good luck!
Thanks, I found them after some digging around. I am a GitHub user and I am used to seeing my projects on the start page. I can't believe why Ohloh is hiding them - for me the expected thing is to see my registered projects on the start page.
You only registered yourself as a manager
for these projects, so they won't show up in your personal page, which is https://www.ohloh.net/accounts/dlidstrom - you will need to go to the project, then click contributors
and then click on the name/email you used while contributing to that project. Claiming the manager
position just allows you to control what aspects of an Ohloh project page others can edit (it should be considered reserved for core contributors only
). You can also appoint others as manager.
Then you can say claim position
to claim your commits as being yours. After having done so, your contributions to that project will show up in your main page and be counted towards your experience, and something will show up under experience
. This allows others to see how many years of experience you have with a given language, in actual commits as well as how much you say you have.
If any of the Ohloh staff is reading along with this, maybe y'all could have a UI designer take a look at how to improve this. It's obviously not as simple as it could be!
Thanks! The contributors
functionality was exactly what I needed! I agree though that it should be easier to do this.
