For several days now I have not been getting points for crafting at jeweling stations. I stopped getting points at 90.5, filed a bug report, and two days later was able to move up to 100.75 at which point I again stopped getting points from crafting. I have tried at 5 different jeweling stations, in Sylvari and Human lands. Is anyone else having this problem?? Any suggestions as to what to do about it? Thanks. Enjoy the game!

Do you mean Crafting XP? Or regular XP? Can you tell us a bit more? Show some screenshots?

Hei, further to the not getting points from crafting:
1. Not having the crafting level bar move ahead, i.e. from 90.5 to 91
2. Not getting experience points (XP), the number of points does not go up
3. Screen shots: the screen shot helps how? I have tried at several different jeweling stations. Items crafted go into my inventory, but the bars for crafting level and XP do NOT move ahead.
4. How do you attach a screen shot??
Thank you for your help. My partner IRL does not seem to be having this problem, YET. It didn’t start until I went over 90. And my other alt, a sylvaria hunter (this one is a human thief) had no problems a month ago. It seems to have started after the new build was set up and rolled out.
Cheers,
Kaela

Be aware, that you will not get any points (experience) if the item you are crafting is too low for your current crafting level.
The items are marked in different colors to show how much experience you can expect.
See here for details on the colors: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/crafting/Color-Coding

Additionally the wiki might help to learn the crafting basics:

Yes, the reason for the screenshots were to determine if you were crafting items below your level. The items must be a color (on the list) to give Crafting XP.

AHA. So if you are trying to craft something on the list, and that something has no colour, you won’t get points for it. That would explain it. Thanks guys!!! You have been VERY helpful!!!
