There used to be a page somewhere here in the Community that had a "thumbnail" (for lack of better terminology) for each of the individual members of the Mentor program. IIRC, it had their eBay member id, maybe a date of when they registered in the Community or when they became a Mentor, the number of posts, the date of their last post (or when they last accessed the Community), etc. There may have been four or five pieces of data on each Mentor.
I can no longer find that page. Does anyone have it bookmarked, or could anyone lead me to it?
Thanks!

I think they had a list of members by the dates they became a mentor and you could click on their name from the list to see their stats, but then someone complained or asked that the list be in alphabetical order so they changed it to alphabetical.
I think pburn may be referring to the list.

You can see that information for any Community member by clicking on their ID.

I'm aware of that, but that wasn't my question. Perhaps my original post was unclear. I'm looking for an entire page of members of the Mentor program, with "thumbnails" and data for each member. I'm interested in seeing all the Mentors in one place, not clicking on every single posters' id to see whether they just happen to be a Mentor.

We may be talking about the same list. I don't recall how it was organized (whether it was chronological or alphabetical), but I'll bet we're thinking of the same page.
Was that page removed when the Community software was revamped? If so, could we get that one back--or something similar? Thanks!

Sorry, I did misread you query. You wouldn't have to click on every member's ID, since you could start on the Ask a Mentor board and work your way down through the Leaderboard (AKA "Most Marked as Helpful Authors").
The "Ask a mentor" leaderboard shows the mentor ID's in order by number of "helpfuls" received, and you can choose from several time ranges. There's an option for "All time" but I don't think it's accurate. I don't remember there ever being anything more comprehensive than that. Also, it doesn't show useful details like original Community date, only the weird Community nicknames (Visionary, Rockstar, etc.).

@pburn shoot, Tyler isn't here anymore and since we have over 300 boards, I can't remember where we put that Mentor page or if we took it down all together. 🤔 I think we did take it down because there were so many bugs on that page and it was a custom page too.
I do have plans to identify Mentors at the forum level so when you're scrolling through, it's easy to identify a Mentor. I think it's a good idea to have all of the Mentors listed on one page as well.
I'll circle back soon to this post with answers.

Thanks for your response, sheila@ebay! Looking forward to seeing an updated page!

I remember that page, it was called Meet the Mentors. I still have a link to it, but one day I clicked to go to it and all the pictures and everything had disappeared. Much later, Tyler posted a list. https://community.ebay.com/t5/Community-Mentor-Lounge/List-of-current-Mentors/m-p/31966612 The list is almost a year old now and it hasn't been maintained.

That's no doubt the same list I'm asking about.
I get an "Access Denied" error message when I click on your link, of course, since it's on a restricted board.
Thanks, though!

I don't think it is. I think you're asking about the page that had all the pictures on it, all the avatars. The link I posted is just a list of names, each name is a link, but it's not the Meet the Mentors page.
Sorry about that restricted thing, I didn't even think about that. The list is out of date anyway.

Oh. no--sorry my post wasn't clear. The first page you described--"Meet the Mentors"--was no doubt the one I was remembering.
04-27-2022 04:40 PM
I confirmed that we took down this page because it had a lot of bugs.

Really? Is it going to be redesigned and made available again? Because it sure seems to create the impression of a lack of transparency regarding the program to not identify Mentors. The credibility of the whole program takes a hit when eBay won't even provide a page regarding its members.

I haven't decided what I'll do with the list of Mentors, but I'll likely repost that list in some way.
