Body

I am trying to show GitHub Achievements on my public profile: https://github.com/VishalFulkar

Both profile visibility settings are enabled, I expected the Achievements section/tab to appear on my profile.

But my public profile does not show an Achievements section.
https://github.com/VishalFulkar?tab=achievements returns Not Found.

In Settings > Public profile, both of these are enabled:
Include private contributions on my profile
Show Achievements on my profile

I refreshed and rechecked after enabling the settings, but the achievements still do not appear.

Additional context

Username: VishalFulkar
Recent public merged PR activity includes:
VishalFulkar/Strike-Sports-Turf#1

This looks similar to other reports where Achievements were not displayed even though the visibility settings were enabled.
Could someone from GitHub please check whether my achievements are stuck hidden, delayed, or affected by a profile display bug?

Hello,

Thank you for reporting this issue.

To help identify the cause, could you please confirm the following:

• Have you earned at least one GitHub Achievement?
• Is the "Show Achievements on my profile" option enabled in your Public Profile settings?
• Have you checked your profile in an incognito/private browser window?
• Has sufficient time passed since the achievement was earned, as profile updates may occasionally be delayed?

If possible, please share a screenshot of your profile settings and any earned achievements. This may help determine whether the issue is related to profile visibility settings or a temporary display problem.

Best regards,
Sethu Madhavan P

My GitHub account got suspended few weeks ago , may be that's the reason!!!🤷‍♂️

hey @VishalFulkar 👋.
that suspension detail is actually really important ,,,that's most likely the cause .
when a github account gets suspended ,even temporarily ,a few things can get reset or hidden on the profile side :

• achievement visibility can get toggled off silently during the suspension process.
• the achievements tab url( ?tab=achievements )sometimes stops resolving correctly even after the account is reinstated ,,,its not always an instant fix .
• contribution graphs and profile sections can also take time to fully restore after a suspension is lifted,

a couple things to try :

• go to settings > public profile and togggle "show achievements on my profile" off , save ,then toggle it back on and save again ,,,sometimes the setting needs a hard reset to re-register after account reinstatement.
• check if your profile shows correctly when fully logged out ,not just incognito ,,,sometimes the cached state differs.
• if the toggle reset doesnt fix it ,email support@github.com and mention that your achievements arent showing after your account was reinstated from suspensionn ,,,they can manually trigger a profile refresh on their end.

the good news is your PR activity is showing up (i can see your first PR achievement),so the account itself looks active ,,,its likely just the achievements display thats stuck from the suspension ,should be fixable 💙💙
