    You can change the static one for your profile in your account settings:

    You can but it doesn’t stick.

    Which location doesn’t stick? There are two different location fields, as I mention in this post:
    https://forums.creativecow.net/thread/1/859585#859586
    The one you can set in your account settings will stick, and doesn’t change automatically once it is set. The other does change, dependent upon your IP address changing.

    Thanks for your help, but we’re going in circles with this thread. The problem isn’t with the location tracking. The problem we are having is that the one you set in account settings doesn’t stick.

    In my case, I have set it for Philadelphia many times, where I am physically located, but it stills says Brooklyn on my profile front page and in the “Your Location” field of the edit profile page.

    Hello Dax,

    I can see how this would be confusing, as there are two location labels. Are you managing your location here?

    Yes.

    Is there anyone we contact about this? I don’t see a technical support contact on the contact page. I’m still getting job notifications for New York with no way to change my location.

    Yes, I can help you with this. Job subscriptions are controlled here:
    https://jobs.creativecow.net/jobsSubscribe.php
    But I’m not seeing you subscribed to our jobs newsletter. I’ll contact you directly, so you can forward me more details or emails you’re getting.

    Thanks for your help, Abraham! I’m not sure if I did something differently this time or it was one of the adjustments you made, but I was able to enter my location by typing it directly into the location field of the edit profile page. It appears to have stuck this time.

    Good news! I made a couple changes to help things be a little more straight forward. Looks like we worked it out. Thanks for the feedback =)
