Hi there everyone
I’ve lost all my progress here without doing anything so please for god’s sake help me get that progress back. I will be highly thankful to you people if you help me because it’s more than just important for me. It’s very very important for me. I am very worried about my this lose so please help me fix this problem.
Do you have any other email addresses?
Is it possible you had logged in previously with another address?
Please email support@freecodecamp.com
No, I always use this email with which I have this account and I am even used to get Quincy Larson’s emails through this email. Please find a way to make me able to see my progress otherwise I’ll cry for sure because I have spent almost a year here in learning coding.
Please email support@freecodecamp.org
I understand, but remember the real progress is in your head.
Worst case you’ll need to redo a few certification projects and practice makes perfect. You’ll probably make them even better.
That said, please email support@freecodecamp.org
why do I have to redo? and why is my progress not saved?
did you email support@freecodecamp.org ?
Email that address, explain what happened, and wait for a reply.
If you were on the old courses, they are still available here:
Perhaps you will find your progress here?
(The link to access the old courses is at the bottom of the Curriculum page.)
There are two different types of saved progress for Free Code Camp: your profile and your browser cache.
A list of your completed challenges is saved to your account in the FCC database. You can see the list of completed challenges by looking at your public portfolio. With a growing curriculum already over 1,400 lessons and a community of millions of people, FCC does not store every solution to every challenge in its database. When you complete a challenge, there is a modal that gives you the option to download your solution. This gives you the option to save a copy of any solution that you may want to reference later. There are some challenges which are classified as projects required for certifications. Your solutions to those can be viewed on your settings page.
Your in-editor code is saved in your browser’s local storage. Recent in-progress code from the challenge editor is also saved in your local browser cache when you run tests. If you are completing lessons and do not see your recent code, then your local storage has been cleared or something is preventing FCC from writing to your browser’s storage. This could be a browser setting, a privacy extension, or a browser version incompatibility. Especially as you get to more complicated challenges that may take multiple sessions, I strongly recommend saving your in-progress work outside of the browser cache.
This is a good opportunity to learn the ins and outs of your GitHub account, but you can also just save locally or use a service like repl.it which allows for versioning.
