Dear Community,
A few weeks ago we shared that our two Voyager Communities are combining. It's almost here, and as promised, here are the details.
On Monday, 29 June, we're merging the international Voyager Community (community.personio.com) into our much larger, currently German-speaking community here at community.personio.de. One home for thousands of Personio users and HR professionals across Europe. And language won't be a barrier: the whole community, interface and posts alike, can be read in English, German or Spanish with a click.
We'll do the heavy lifting and move your account for you. Here's the little bit we need from you.
☑️ What you need to do, if you have an account on .com
Before 3. July: save your DMs (if you'd like to keep them)
To protect your privacy, private messages won't carry over. The old site stays open in read-only until then, so you can still save anything you want. Here's your inbox on the .com community.
From 30 June: Set your new password on .de community
Your password won't carry over, so you'll need a new one. Go to the password reset page, enter your email, and we'll send you a link. Under a minute.
From 30 June: Log in and look around
Your account will be ready at community.personio.de. Your badges, groups, posts and likes will follow over the coming weeks as we complete the migration — so don't worry if your profile looks a little empty at first.
Two special cases: if your username has changed, or you already have an account on community.personio.de, check the Q&A below 👇
🗓 The timeline
- 29 June: your account moves to community.personio.de
- From 30 June: log in (with a fresh password) and explore
- For a few weeks afterwards: the old site stays open in read-only so you can still browse past content
- Late July: your posts, likes and the rest of your content arrive to your .de account
❓ Questions & answers
Will I lose my posts and likes history?
Nope! Everything comes across. Your account moves first (29 June); your posts, likes, badges and groups follow over the coming weeks. If your profile looks empty at first, don’t worry, it’s on its way.
Why is my profile empty when I log in?
Because your account moves before your content does. Posts and likes arrive when we merge content in late July.
Why does my new username end with _1 ?
If someone in the .de community already had your username, we had to make a small adjustment. Prefer something different? Just email us at community@personio.de and we'll change it after the migration.
I already have an account on community.personio.de, what happens?
You're already set up! Keep using that account. Your contributions from this .com community will be added to it when we merge content in late July.
Will the community be in English?
Yes, you can switch the whole community (interface and posts) between English, German and Spanish with one click.
What happens to the old community.personio.com?
It stays open in read-only for a few weeks in July so you can still browse. Then, it redirects to the new home once everything's merged.
