Quick Question..

I'm doing the Web Design track, and I assumed the tracks were linear, is this not so? After finishing three stages of "How to make a Website" it sent me to "Html" and after only one stage its telling me to now do the "Css Foundations" first stage. This is how you're supposed to do it right? Just making sure I didn't skip ahead on accident, I'm not supposed to fully complete "How to make a Website" first am I?

Hmm.. mine went all the way through How to Make a Website, then HTML, then CSS foundations. I did notice that partway through CSS foundations, my progress bars show that I've started the CSS Layouts section and I haven't. So, I'm curious about this also ...

Hey Zack!

Tracks are supposed to be completed from top-to-bottom, and you shouldn't be sent to one course without having completed another. As it's designed, you'd complete all the stages for a course before moving onto the next course.

That said, Track progress for some users (including you, unfortunately!) is not working correctly today and we're working to get a fix implemented. In the meantime, you can go to How to Make a Website from the Library and keep on that path you're intended. :)

We'll be sure to post back when the progress issue is resolved.

Alright got it. As a note in case it's relevant to the problem, the track still has my progress in the "How to make a Website" box as 3/10 and "Html" as 1/7 but in the actual "Web Design" progress bar at the top the green lined work in progress bar is only there for "CSS Foundations" which it is currently telling me to do. The bar is white in the "How to make a Website" and "Html" parts.

I'll get back on the HTMAW section now, thx for the info

Alright! Just wanted to let you know that this has now been fixed. Carry on as per usual. Thanks for your patience, Zack!
