Hello everyone!
Could you please remind me how to embed my Translators Without Borders badge in my profile?
I can see it in my profile now (with an outdated amount of translated words), but when I try to edit my profile to insert the updated badge, I cannot find the field where the volunteer translations appear.

Hi Natalia,

Have a look at the instructions below:

Surprisingly, my Donated Words count has been updated automatically...

When my wordcount updated at the TWB account the previous time, I could clearly see it updating at proz too. I was pretty sure they fixed it to update automatically. However, when my wordcount updated at TWB again (last time), I waited for a week for proz to update it automatically. But it didn't happen. It made me think that I misunderstood something. That is why I contacted the support team again. Now that you confirm that your wordcount updated automatically too, I feel relieved: I'm not crazy yet
Thank you for the tip.

Update: just found out that we are talking about different things.
In addition to your Bio, you can also have the TWB word count in your "standardized information" pane. It looks like this:

But thank you anyway. Two badges are even better than one.

The standardized information pane is the part that’s not being automatically updated in my profile.
I thought I could edit that field somehow, but I see it’s not possible. I’ll contact the support team as you suggested in your previous message. Thank you for your help!
