Update: we are go! Read about the changes we've made to our nav bar here, and thanks for your patience!

As the great David Bowie sang, 🎶Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes!🎶

Starting at 1 PM ET tomorrow (10/18/2023), we'll be implementing some adjustments to the site navigation experience as well as Splunkbase product integrations here on the Splunk Community platform. Site functionality may be impacted for a short time. We can't wait to share more about the upcoming changes with you once they are live. 

Cheers!

I saw some weird behavior today, not sure if it is related to the site updates.

 

I answered this question this morning...or at least I thought I did:

But my answer ended up in this post which is a duplicate but in some archive area for a user group:

I don't know exactly how to reproduce, but I normally find things to answer by going to community.splunk.com and selecting Unreplied in the dropdown.

Hi @GretchenFox ,

after the update I noticed that I had about 200 Karma Points less than before the update.

Previously there was a difference between the Karma Points indicated in the profile and those in the Karma Leaderboard (around 130), today they are 337.

Ciao.

Hi @GretchenFox ,

Have you had the opportunity to understand why after the last maintenance activity my Karma Points have significantly decreased and there is a notable difference between what is reported in the Karma Leaderboard (3161) and in My Profile (3503)?

Ciao.
