i like the sign in options. It's a nice touch to start with. I've been following the buildteam a lot closer lately and am only waiting to see the token on steem engine so that i canpick some up and stake it. Great project from a great team and nice to see it coming together here.
This is looking fantastic! It’s really come along adding the much more recognizable forum structure and quoting ability. Based on the early beta I was holding off on setting up a custom forum or two of my own but I’m getting pretty eager to dive in now!

This is looking very good since @thecryptodrive showed me a month or so ago. Congratulations on the progress.
PS: Did you know you can now start your own TokenBB forum with your own subdomain?
I am very interested in exploring a new community model for homeschoolers and unschoolers on Steem. Do you think TokenBB would be appropriate.
Are all forums public? Or are they options for making any parts private?
Did you know you can now start your own TokenBB forum with your own subdomain?
I didn't know that. I visited this site from your posting and login with steem keychain. but it seems that authentication process has some issue. it shows me guest account with my steem accout having warning symbol.

Thanks. I'm not sure which process makes login issue.(When I was having trouble to reply, I had already confirmed posting permission in steem keychain popup) um. I can not reproduce it. Currently, it works. haha. But you need to check it.
Ooh, my mistake. That is odd, will see if we can reproduce. It currently auto-refreshes the posting auth status on login, so I expect that problem to be fairly rare.

For some reason, when I logon via steemconnect, I need to use my posting key and also active key.
Yes, this is because tokenBB needs posting authority. It should only really ask this once though. The second time should only need posting, if I remember correctly.
Good job!
Btw,I login by Brave Browse failed.
I turn off all the block settings, and then it's ok.
is it normal,and is it a useful information for you?
Wow! You did a great job! But how to create my own subdomain? And it seems need to improve the experience on mobile phone. Looking forward to your new release.
I was among the first testers back when the UI was a bit....yeaaah! It looks absolutely glorious at the moment. The functionality has improved significantly and I simply cannot wait to sit behind the wheel. My friends are equally excited to start earning something from their posts.
I will again recommend taking a look at the xenforo forum software and incorporating some of those features on here like embedding from websites like Twitter or Giphy, notifications and maybe user levels.
Great to hear, and great progress you guys! Looking forward to start using this officially for Actifit!
Note: my first comment did not go through, trying again. I think it has to do with proper authentication once a user signs in first time - i used SC if this helps.
Great to see TokenBB growing and releasing beta which looks quite impressive. Pages devided after some posts or comments is a great way to reduce burden of the comments to load in a single page and separated with low volume.
Though some bugs are visible right now like it is not showing the real value of the comment or upvotes otherwise great work by all of you.

You need to give posting authority to BuildTeam, go here and try unlink and relink accounts https://account.buildteam.io/accounts let me know how it goes.
@cryptoctopus tokenbb is one of the best projects I have seen on the steem blockchain so far and I must say you've actually done a very great job to make the necessary corrections and modifications of the platform.
I will love to ask about how I can create my own forum on tokenbb.
Thanks for sharing this great post with love from @hardaeborla 💞💞
How would you describe the benefits of this interface versus other front ends?
I actually do have one feedback item. On mobile (Android), I am having difficulty scrolling up in the text box but instead scrolls the entire screen. I am able to scroll if I grab and drag the cursor however. Not an Android developer but perhaps there is a way to enable scrolling on the text box after the issue has clicked into it. Conversely, it should be disabled when they click on any area outside of it.

Great going @cryptoctopus and the tokenbb team. Congrats.
Glad to see you are up and running. I had several forums set up on chainBB and was sad when Jesta had to close it down. He was very honorable though in refunding the Steem I spent for the subdomains.
You comment on here and it doesn't show up on your steemit post. This is very cool. Since, I haven't made a post on Tokenbb yet, is there a way from keeping that post from showing up on the steemit/steempeak/busy feed of my followers. This has been one of my biggest complaints about apps like a zappl. I don't want a bunch of couple sentence posts showing up on my feed.
Any thoughts on adding a stand along "ranking" system on the platform to indicate moderator, senior member, newb etc? Also, signatures? I really liked how you could sign up to add a signature to your comments on bitcointalk.org and received a certain amount of bitcoin per comment as long as it wasn't just spam.
I like the side by side preview and the ability to sign in using keychain. Honestly, this looks awesome and may just be a way to get my friends back on Steemit!
This is cool! I’ve seen TokenBB from Drugwars board. I have one suggestion. Could you remove the need of posting right authorization? More seamless integration with steem keychain is needed. I don’t any any reason why posting right authorization is needed with steem keychain. Thanks.
ps. user selection should be improved. Sorry for another comment as anonymous which I didn't intend but I was selected as anonymous user even after I authorized my posting right. Hope this helps.
Great progress! Its a nice way to organize information! I will browse a little to know deeper this jewel! I like quoting modes, and the markdown editor (clear and simple)
Not sure why there's a red exclamation mark next to my name at the top after signing in with SteemConnect and giving posting permission. Hope this post goes through.
Another interface to steemit is definitely a welcome idea. I have not really researched tokenbb but I believe that it would add value to the platform and that is great as far as I am concerned. Good work to the team.

This is cool! I've seen TokenBB from Drugwars board. I think maybe it's just one-time but it'd be much better if more seemless integration with steem keychain is possible. Thanks!

Waiting to have our SM forum available to repost and edit some of the analysis of the cards here, much easier to find to any player in this forum than in Steemit.
Do we have a date to the launch of TokenBB?, and another question, will this forum have the same time limit for upvoting as steemit has?
Congrats for your work guys, this seems to me a very interesting proyect.

Thanks. Second time needs active key or master key
We will look into making your authorised account default on first sign-in, whew, so much to do still!
Regarding the Keychain request it is unlikely to change in the short-term Tokenbb is geared towards ease of use for our users, things should just work. Keychain would introduce subtle problems we can't mitigate in our own backend, retries, co-ordination with our database and even policing beneficiary reward status.
Hi @thecryptodrive, thanks for your reply! Not many PO reply to users feedback sadly :) I actually didn't know you're in this project. To be honest, I always wonder why thecryptodrive is on the top witness list, now the mystery is resolved. If you haven't seen, you may find interest in my recent post: Witness of the people, by the people, for the people
ps. Regarding your answer, I got it if you need it in your backend. But I still don't understand why that backend logic is needed, maybe some efficiency? For instance, to me so far, steempeak works quite seamlessly with keychain without posting right authorization. I has retry feature for instance. While I agree that steemconnect style's posting right authorization has been a dominant way, but unless it's absolutely needed (e.g., voting automation, scheduled post), that should be avoided.
Anyway, tokenbb is actually very awesome project, and I'll try to contribute on GH too. Thanks!

This is because interactions with tokenbb require posting authority. I believe if you click the warning symbol, it should request access. However, that requires your active key to be in steem keychain (and possibly need a more recent version of steem keychain)

Thanks for the feedback and for stopping by! The #1 benefit is for communities to have their own sandbox hosted on their own domain. For example, DrugWars and SteemMonsters would be better off having a Steem powered forum on their own domain rather than having losing the attention on people over on steemit.com...it's also a great place to aggregrate all the content related to a topic. (it's also better for SEO)
btw, the guest user accounts can receive upvotes, or it's still your account, just under guest?
For now the money goes to TokenBB but down the line we would like those to be held in a custodial account for when the guest has accumulated enough to buy his own Steem account.

All forums will be public but unlisted until we have a forum explorer, Steem is a public blockchain so can't have private forums. But if you don't advertise your forum, people aren't likely to know about it.

First time tring out tokenbb, what’s Enable MB Auto Mode?
That is a mode that sets your account to vote sell and autopower up
to grow quicker...but we might take it out and leave it as an advanced feature on the profile page coming soon™
Thanks for the explanation. Yes, it should be advanced feature

Tokens on Steem-engine is about 2 months away, but you can get them via https://wallet.bitshares.org right now, later they will be exchangeable with Steem-Engine tokens.
I actually went looking at it yesterday with the intention of buying some. Created an account, thought about what i wanted to sell from my portfolio and then decided I really didn't want to go messing on another exchange and with more tokens. I just didn't like the layout on bitshares and the options to trade that i had. I decided to wait until they are ready for steem-engine and try to keep things a little simpler for myself.

before thanks for upvote my first reply..hehe
It is not connected to your blog on steemit.com
If you want to launch your own forum, it will all be hosted under @forums.tokenbb as a post. Replies on that post are categories and replies on those replies are topics.

Keep up the great work.
I'm so glad you like the forum progress so far @gniksivart, how TokenBB works regarding comments is that everything happens within the @forums.tokenbb Steem account, a forum is basically a post and topics are comments and replies are nested comments, if that makes sense. There will never be a post on your account, however all of your comments will appear on your comments menu on Steemit.com or whatever other UI you use.
Ranking would be good, but probably has to be forum specific or have global ranking as well. I'm not a huge fan of signatures cause they can get messy and spammy and interrupt the flow of conversation, but may look at it much later when we run out of things to implement :)
Glad to see you are up and running. I had several forums set up on chainBB and was sad when Jesta had to close it down. He was very honorable though in refunding the Steem I spent for the subdomains.
Well, we are not going anywhere! We have much more in the plan for this. Visit tokenbb.io if you want to have your own forum on TokenBB. :-)

Feel free to resurrect your old forums, BuildTeam has been around for nearly 2 years and we have a globally distributed team and founders in different continents so we anticipate to be around for a long time.

Do we need to do anything to update our individual forums? I still don't see options to delete forums or to set subcategories.
We have to manually set them up for now but we are working hard on the UI for you to be able to do it yourself. Hit us up with your list of categories and subcategories and we will make something happen :-)
This has tons of potential. I have been using Hockey's future forum for many years and it's huge!

This is wonderful news for everyone, especially ami makes me very happy, I've been waiting for so much where to interact directly from steem in a more personal way and here it has come, leave your impressions, share, enjoy

Hi @difelice5000 thanks we have received your forum application, we just require payment of the 10 Steem to the pay.buildteam account and the BuildTeam username you supplied is not correct, need to retrieve it from https://accounts.buildteam.io, I also can't find you on the DIscord username you provided, please can you make contact with me on Discord to give me your BuildTeam username.
Hey everyone :) This is our first update log: - we habe enabled a md renderer for user content, please try it out - new topics now show the last activity date even without any comments - Users who did not authorize @buildteam are now getting error messages instead of posts that are not synchronized to the Steem blockchain We are working hard to provide you with more updates and already have things in the wroks :)If you are not getting the new update, close all browser tabs and then open a new one. We will add a popup asking you to update soon:tm:
We added a Category Overview Page as our new homepage. Each forum can now group categories and reorder them however they like. Please try it out and report any problems with this new style :)
Suppestion: Instead of a back to top button at the end of the posts, why not do the up arrow thing at the bottom right of the screen? Its more common from what I've seen.

Tokenbb got a big restructure that reduced its size by about 100 times, which is especially noticeable on mobile and slow connections. We also fixed a few style thinks that @nojo121 and @suesa might enjoy ;)
We improved quoting a bit, adding a timestamp and removing the horizontal lines. This makes quotes more compact, adds extra information and makes clicking that quote button a no brainer.

@lordbutterfly
We have rough time frames but with software development we don't hold on to the illusion of that bein in any way, shape or form realistic ;)
Our dev @tdre did a small patch that adds scroll to top and bottom links on all topics for easier navigation. This was a user feedback we have now implemented.
to see this change, you might have to close all tabs and open them anew (or clear your cache)
Some users had problems linking their Steem account and they did not receive their green checkmark signaling that the account is authorized.
Our dev @eonwarped improved the login flow with steemconnect and keychain to solve this step automatically. So if you as a uer had this problem, you can try logging out and then login again with the steemconnect or keychain method and your account should automatically be fixed.
Please give us feedback for login issues, we are working hard to make this process as simple and unobstrusive as possible for you.
Some users noticed certain html elements being removed once they posted their comment.
We are sanitizing all html to protect readers from malicious content. But we noticed that this process was overcealous in what it removes. So we relaxed it a bit and enabled a notification for when parts of the html are removed. This means if you notice your comment lacking something it had in the editor then contact us and we will see about fixing it.
There is no need to clear any caches as this is a backend update.
You should change the hover color for pinned posts titles, it is the same color than background, so the title disappears when hovering it (for not highlighted posts).
Testing testing 123. I linked up my steem account via the keychain. Seems like the "Anon" or "accountname" switcher in the top-right doesn't update.... ### Markdown seems to work well enough though!
Hi, gonna give this a go. I hope it works as I see big potential. Trying a list: 1. 1st point 2. 2nd point 3. ++underline this point++ Added a pic from Pixabay as another test.
@aussieninja maybe because you have it scan for your username not as mention but as keyword? Tokenbb will always add the link to your reply to the comment, that could trigger it. If you can share your gina settings, I can talk with @neander-squirrel to get it working :)
So, let me see if I’ve got this correct, you have two accounts, one anon, and one steem account. You can switch between them at will, but post rewards under anon go to a single connected anon account or to the user’s connected steem account?
Okay, so initially logging in with SteemConnect didn't quite work... I had to click on the 'anon' username at the very top, select my username, go through SteemConnect again but this time with posting authority and then it was all fine. It's a shame the two posts above are now forever anon instead of converting to my username now that I've logged in properly.
Also looks like GINA on Discord sees every reply here as a mention.
Can you step us through how you experienced logging in? We are currently working on a better login flow and would appreciate all feedback on problems you had with the current one
At the moment it is not possible to post without giving posting authority to buildteam. With steem keychain it should also be possible to post without giving posting authority to an other account.
Yeah the "Testing testing 123" was me. So it seems like tokenbb works via setting up a forum in an individual main-comment, and all replies are sub-comments -- very neat. I'll keep my eye on this -- might be cool to implement a forum for my own project in the not too distant future.
It looks like after I logged in w/ SteemKeychain, I had to refresh the page before switching to my account worked. Previous post was w/ guest.tokenbb account. Looks cool so far!
We implemented it with comments to not spam peoples feeds too much. Creating a topic is also a comment so it will not conflict with feeds on other frontends
@cryptoctopus, I think a tag, and maybe a link to the post that is being replied to would be ideal. Something like: """ MESSAGES GOES HERE *** Reply to @mstafford - [LINK TO ORIGINAL REPLY] """ So that way you'll receive a mention notification, and a link to the context?
Congratulations for the work, @cryptoctopus! I really enjoyed the idea of using the comments to post on the forum and monetize it. Have you thought about adding topics for each language here?
Lovely new addition by BT team. Actually heard recently a guy mention that he has a large group of people on facebook that would be interested in moving to Steem if Steem had an integrated Forum function.
So there you have it.
Ill send him the link.
From what im seeing here right now, As Cryptodrive said, its still looking bland a bit, like eating oatmeal. :D
(Oh look the smileys work already)
Didnt notice any bugs atm outside of the aesthetic and window positioning kind...
One thing i would recommend is that you try and avoid, at any cost, beneficiary fees.
That is the death of platforms here.
There are a number of ways you can monetize the forums...
An idea i had would be creating premium on-platform digital content similar to what Discord is doing... Even take a look at https://quidd.co/ that sells digital stickers.. Try and incorporate another monetization method or i fear beneficiary fees will scare a lot of people off. Try being imaginative in that regard.
Thanks for the support and suggestion. We are working on the couple of models:
1- Split 50/50 of beneficiary rewards. So that it creates an incentives for forum owners to build their community and have instant monetization.
2- There is also the option that the owners pay us a monthly fee to have their forum and they get to keep the beneficiary rewards (set by them)
We are open to other suggestions. Ads could be part of the plan but it's definitely not a favorite of people in general. But the ad model could work.
Ads could work, yes. I still think there is an opportunity here for more inovative solutions.
When you mention beneficiary fees, users tend to step back a bit. Especially now that a cut in author rewards is being talked about with the Blocktrades worker proposal system.
That's another thing that I'm encountering too. I think it is important to be able to edit everything after it's already posted, and that includes being able to edit the post AND title at any time. But right now, Title's cannot be edited, and posts can only be edited on Steemit. My first preference would be to allow editing of the title and post on TokenBB, but if that's impossible due to blockchain constraints, being able to edit on Steemit would suffice. But if editing posts and titles must be done on Steemit.com, the link to Steemit should say "Edit on Steemit" instead of "View on Steemit" and should work seamlessly.
markdown rendering is one of the first things on our todo. We recently switched the editor to a markdown one and now need to do the same for the viewer :)
I think from memory chainbb just had a single forum per subject area. So I had a Basic Income forum, and it was just a single forum with no categories or sub forums. So I was able to set it so that any time someone wrote a post on steem with the tags basicincome, ubi etc it would show up in the forum. There was no "importing" of posts, chainBB was basically just another front end on the steem blockchain. It was just a different way of organising the blockchain data.
@revo, once logged in you should see a settings option in top left, there you can setup your categories, we can help you with categories and subcategories as the admin panel is not 100% finished, I think you can only set categories currently, but if you give us a site structure we can manually set it up for you. Have a look at https://drugwars.tokenbb.io for an example.
Jesta's old chainBB forum allowed the admin of a forum to set tags that would pick up any steem posts matching those tags and include them in the forum. Is this an option on tokenBB?
@revo I saw your message come up but can't find it easily on chain as all messages go to one comments section. Ie the forum is a post, the topics and replies and the replies are nested comments. Also Tokenbb is one way, if you reply via Partiko or Steemit.com it won't show on the forum.
please can you paste everything you said over here on https://test.tokenbb.io. I did briefly see that you can't see the settings, I will get @reggaemuffin to look into it in about 8 hours.
Hi @thecryptodrive. Here's what I posted (via steempeak). I sorted the settings thing, just logged out and in again.
While I've got you here, another question...
Jesta's old chainBB forum allowed the admin of a forum to set tags that would pick up any steem posts matching those tags and include them in the forum. Is this an option on tokenBB?
@revo, can you expand on that a little? How were the posts imported, ie all the post data and images imported as a topic? or was just a post link imported as a reply in a specific topic?
What about comments on the post, were those imported too?
The idea is to be one-way otherwise people can write malicious code on the Steem side and gets imported to our blog, also having to poll the chain all the time for new updates makes it very resource intensive, but ur dev team can have better insights into whether this would be possible.
As you can see we need many urgent features like admin categories management first before we look at something like this.
This is super amazing!
Looks sleek, works smooth, very promising!
Thanks to the development team for all the hard work put in to this!
I went through a lot of the topics, and I have noticed almost everything and am so very excited to see this grow and become a go to.
I noticed I could upvote older posts, it counted but didn't add any value phew!
Awesome! I am blown away.
Thank you to every single contributor!

Thank you for stopping by and giving us some encouragements! We do our best every day to make it better and we have a whole lot more to do before it's "perfect" but until then, it's so nice to have a forum interface for the Steem blockchain!
I posted an unuseful answer. There's no Delete button on the board yet, so I tried to delete the comment on Steemit, but the answer still shows on the board.
We ignore chain events to filter out bot spam and unrelated content. We also add links to the threads on chain to ease people to view the discussion. And edits might break these
Who is admin and who is moderator must be shown with profile picture though we all know @cryptoctopus you are the admin of the site but regarding topics and categories different admins and moderators cN be selected.
Directed to the page after clicking the link in steemconnect. 2. Clicked connect in site to get an email. 3. Received email less than one minute, although the mail was sent to spam. 4. Received magic link and walaaa, I am connected. Comments: 1. Easy to connect. 2. Very simple web layout, easy to navigate without instruction. 3. No need to make a password, just use magic link. 4. Easy to link with steem account as well. Overall, good apps.
I like the Magic Link login feature, but like someone else said elsewhere, I think it would be good to allow users to choose between the Magic Link, SteemConnect, and Steem Keychain. If people can save their prefence of choice, even better!
hi we are a geoup of friends starting what we would like to be a DAO for a pilot community concept. At the moment we are working on a web based platform to develop the proof of concept online and try to apply it world wide. I assume this sort of forum-like web could really help our process, is there anything we should know on how to setup a forum like this one?
True, and I think TokenBB and other self-hosted + Admin managed Dapps can break up the Monopolies held by Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram and Reddit. It will allow regular people like me and you to build small niche communities online.
Hello! This is my first comment on TokenBB. I would like to mention the fact that TokenBB is not the first forum on the Steem blockchain. ChainBB (https://chainbb.com) was also a forum on the Steem blockchain. The website of ChainBB is still working, but the forum is offline since 2018.03.29. The details about this can be found in the following blog post: chainbb.com - going offline.
@xplosive welcome to TokenBB, please note that we have not claimed to be the first forum on Steem, we are aware of the ChainBB project which once existed but is since shutdown.
As steemian nothing imposible to going grow up from minnow to a big stuff.
to get to that all right now I need support from you;
is there a place for me to make a loan of steempower / steem ... to be able to increase my money, loan time for 1 month, with a reasonable offer. I tried to borrow around 100 Steem / SP.
If someone is kind enough to give a loan, I promise to give a better return.

I wanted to create a thread too! How’s it all working for you so far? Logging in and connecting took quite a while for me because of some sort of slowdown. Other than that, seems to be working fine. Will update if I find anything else as I explore a bit more.
Keeping all the elements aligned would give it a more clean look. I’m on iOS and on portrait mode the background elements are lined up along the left with account section up top, but the typing section stretches far to the right, and the Steem value and upvote boxes leave the gray area of the screen. Maybe widening the background and account box to make it seem like everything is contained would help.
My feedback for https://test.tokenbb.io/ It looks good and promising but as far as concerned to forum posting from the mobile much improvement needed and from pc it looks great and working nicely.
Entre temprano para probar tokenbb y pedía un email para ingresar, simplemente cerré la pestaña y me fui a completar mi quest diario de SM. Ahora volví, pero antes instale Steem Keychain (Si, hasta ahora no la había usado Steem Keychain) y pude ingresar fácilmente.
Great to get testing and awesome app guys, nice work.
the fields for Category Name and title don't allow enough characters. I wanted to have a category with the same name as each course
but it doesn't fit.
I'm looking forward to future features such as deleting and re-ordering categories
I wrote this reply just to let you know that I have read this post. I am just a simple user, not a developer, and I currently don't know what is the point of view of any of the TokenBB developers on the future features either, so I can't add revelant information about future features at the moment.
Maybe they will reply to this post later.
You posted this 7 days ago, but no one replied to it so far.
Nowadays this is the biggest problem on the Steem blockchain.
The lack of real, human interaction.
I think it would be good for people to be able to post topics and probably even replies as blog posts instead of just comments on the Steem blockchain for the people that choose to do that.
@musing has a feature like that on their Q&A website and its nice.
What i think would be great is if you could allow a forum owner that might pay a premium price or is a subscriber the option of customizing his forum home page beyond the original tokenBB design. That would allow communities to visually differentiate themselves.
If you think about it, communities are basically modern tribes. And how do "tribes" (take a look at football fans) differentiate themselves? By using different colors.
We will have a theme picker/upload solution in the admin panel in future.
Thats great to hear. Customization is really something that Steemians dont have much access to. (Outside the banner choice)
Its important to balance that ofc. Create design options but still have a slightly uniform look.
TokenBB will change this. We have many plans for customizeability of forums that we won't all release now ;)

Please bring back the dark theme. This light one is burning my eyes😂
I know, that a night-mode toggle is in the works but please be nice to my eyesight and switch back to a dark theme while u work on the switch. Thanks 😊

As I saw in your latest post, Tokenbb forums will be hosted on your servers. I guess you will release a Wordpress extension later to integrate one into a WP blog, but if not, don't forget WP users !
When I'm in a category and I'm creating a new topic, the category should be preselected. At the moment I have also so select a category as always -- Select a Category -- is pre selected.
Since it has been said more than once that the desktop version is being worked on now, but the mobile version is not, I recommend that you guys disable the Mobile Version for now and make the Desktop version the default setting for mobile devices. DavaoCity.xyz always shows the Desktop version, even on mobile phones. Test.TokenBB.io on the other hand, shows a mobile version, and it might make some bug reports confusing to sift through since you have to determine if it was a Mobile View or a Desktop View.
Something like the Blog button on steemit is missing. I would like to see my created topics, there should be some button similar to the blog button on the steemit.com site.
It would be nice to see more information for your profile instead of taking you back to the buildteam page.
Some things I can think of your x most recent posts so you can see how it's performing
y most recent replies to comments or post so you can stay on top of them.
Contact information (email, steemit account, discord username)
Bitcoin, Steem, or other crypto addresses for tips. (one can dream that I will one day get a tip when this is posted in my profile)
Website
Ignore list
Notifications would be nice.
Also would be nice to have a way to sort posts. (most recent, most views, highest upvotes, and finally some sort of score that combines views, most recent, and upvotes like reddit)
Our long term goal is to credit the anon rewards to the user and allow them to create a free steem account the moment they can pay with accredited rewards. Basically them working their way to claim the balance.
I noticed that the "All Categories" category is absent when a person clicks on it to select a category. I am not sure about this, but I kind of think that the "All Categories" link should be included in the list of categories, even when a person clicks on the category dropdown menu to narrow their search. EXAMPLE: - There might be times when someone clicks on the categories dropdown menu to narror their search, but decide to go back to view All Categories. I have done this several times and it was uncomfortable to need to click "Back" on my cell phone, and I would have preferred to just navigate to the All Categories link naturally.
I notice that this is only true when a person is in Mobile View on their mobile phone. If you view TokenBB in Desktop View on your mobile phone, it shows the "All Categories" category.
I noticed that there was recently an update for the mobile version of TokenBB. It looks better, but when you click on the Categories, the letters and words of the categories on a Samsung Note 5 are TOO SMALL. When we click on the categories on a mobile phone, I believe the categories should be enlarged almost to the point of filling up the screen (full screen) - that way it will be easy for people to read the categories and see the letters clearly.. especially for people with smaller phones and poor eyesight.
I just noticed that the version of TokenBB is different on my http://DavaoCity.xyz website, on Test.TokenBB.io the letters are not too small, but on the forum that I created, it is.
If you have been around TokenBB since the inception of the previous user interface I know we can all agree that things are really coming together nicely. This is a project I am fully backing and would love to see become the ultimate Forum Software around.
Now, to help further that cause there are several things that can be implemented to improve the user experience. That is after all the best way to make people return several times over to a forum.
While returning to view a thread, users should be snapped directly to where they last were in that thread. Basically the last comment they viewed.
At the moment that is not available and you have to go through the pagination to find your comment.
You basically have to remember which page you were on in order to find your comment. That would be an amazing feature.
Thank you very much to the TokenBB team for this awesome product. I continue to support you through it all.
That is a cool feature, I would imagine however that would be database heavy unless we make use of local db storage within your browser.
I would imagine so especially when several users are on the forum. I am researching this at the moment for best practice.
PS: I am following you now on Steemit. You have some great stuff on your blog that I have been missing.
@deniskj thanks I appreciate the follow. I checked out your blog and see you are into sports, we will soon setup a Steemsports forum where topic creators will earn beneficiary rewards, would you have interest in running some topics there?
Definitely. That is one of the reasons why this forum software is such a good idea for me and probably several others like me. It easier to get discovered in the sports segment than it is on Steemit.
Let me know what I would need to do to get started.

Thank you so much for the feedback @deniskj. We will keep that suggestion top of mind because...you are right!
We would definetly appreciate that. I am going to submit a request for a forum so I can grow along with the software and contribute to the growth as much as I can.

Trending is definitely an interesting metric. The question is how should it be defined.
We could do a sorting by top performers overall. We could do the last month. Or by volume in the last day.
I think the question would be what users want to see when they click that button. What goal do they want to achieve?
I think the best solution to that question in form of what is the user's request is sorting by the volume of last 2 weeks.
That's a timespan that will lead to major topic that are not disccussed in last days (cause they could be technical or for other reasons) to still be highlighted for users, while not having a trending that changes too fast

Hmmm a sliding two week window might be complicated. We could do a: From all topics in the last two weeks, sort by replies
User @cryptoctopus wrote at 15.03.2019 12:21:06 UTC:
To me, in the forum context, the trending should be based on earnings but on how engaged a post is...like a composite of the amount of replies and maybe total payout...with a heavier balance on how many replies.
The goal of forums is to create long form conversations that are active...not trending based on how has the bigger upvote.
Trending was meant by amount of replies or views. We won't sort anything by payout, that is for sure :)
User @aftabkhan10 wrote at 15.03.2019 13:54:23 UTC:
Or make it like, the one with more replies or with more views etc.
that is the goal. But more views over two weeks or a month or globally?

I have a suggestion for the team of the TokenBB to create the UI of the forum in both the day and night mode to interact steem users the same way they are interacting to steem platfrom.
yes of course. We've done so many changes on the front-end that we gave up for a bit trying to maintain 2 themes but as soon as the front-end is a little bit more stable, we'll for sure provide a "theme switcher" and for Pro members, the ability to have their custom theme.
Don't know who's in charge of Ginabot, but somthing that would be huge is the ability to enter the forums urls you take part to in Ginabit settings. Then, when there's a new reply or a new topic, instead of leading to steemit, steempeak or busy or whatever, Ginabot points to the given message on the board.
@neander-squirrel I have a challenge for you : When I click a tokenbb notification in Ginabot, check if a tokenbb tab is already open and opens the notified message in that tab. This will avoid to open multiple TokenBB tabs when using Gina for checking new messages.
This technique is used on Wordpress, when previewing an article, if a preview tab is already open, the new preview loads in that tab instead of opening a new one.
unfortunately(?), you can not access or overwrite an already opened tab's location from outside. (that could be used to all sorts of malicious activities)
you can choose a link to be opened either in the current tab, in new tab or in new window. but to be able to do that, you must have access to this feature which is Discord's authority, sorry. :|
just thinking tho what if a user had a tokenbb window open to read later and this over writes it? I won't add to tasks till we hash this out a bit more.
Hi @suesa, I have added both of these to our task list. @neander-squirrel does GINA currently jump to the comment where you were mentioned or just to the general page?
There should be a way for the community to encourage users to participate in the forums with a regular upvote for participation. This should be somehting that the admin could adjust based on their needs while also maintaining a blacklist for any users who abuse this resource.
I already setup a blog using @engrave and I plan on using their service to host Steem-based websites, but I would love to see TokenBB integrate.with Engrave.
It would allow me to build free Steem-based websites with the added plus of having TokenBB built into those sites.
This is just an idea but it might be possible to create a Hall of Fame of the Top Users for each particular forum.. it can also be a Premium feature that can only be activated for paid Forum Owners.
The main Demo site could list the Top Users acrossed all TokenBB forums while each particular forum would only display the Top Users for their particular forum. But caution should be noted and this feature should be disabled by default IMO since it might crowd people's websites more than some owners prefer.
We also have to consider what metrics to use for the hall of fame/leaderboard, is it most active with replies, or highest value earnings upvote wise, etc, it can be gamed and can cause spam, i would make it a leaderboard that is forum specific and not global, users of a sports forum wouldn't really have anything to do with a forum on homesteading for example.
having the leaderboard localised per forum makes sense also because admins can control leaderboard farming accounts easier by deleting their comments which then won't count.If the leaderboard is global, there is no way for admins to tell if what they are doing on other forums is legit, there is an attack vector where someone could create their own forum for only the purpose of self voting so they can get to the top of the leaderboard rankings.
I actually really like the editor that TokenBB created, but I'd like it to include the ability to upload images. Aside from that, and some of the functions not working, I like TokenBB's editor more.
We are still thinking about how to best store who saw what already. It is technically not so trivial as there can be a big chunk of data just for views :/
Another option would be to allow people to subscribe to a topic, maybe done automatically when they reply. But that would not show new topics as unread or do it time based, where everything older than x is read. Both have their drawbacks
We have a database backend. The problem is if you have 10000 topics and 10000 users, you get 1000000 unread counters. It basically explodes very fast. So we have to find a way that is useful for the people using it but not breaking down once many use it
I understand. I don't know how it is handled on standard boards. I guess it's not so easy. Maybe locally, with cookies ? Anyway the idea to subscribe to a topic is really necessary ! ;-)
A subscribe-to-topic feature is an okay idea, but it isn't a deal breaker if you don't create one, especially in the beginning while the forum communities are still small (it might be unneccesary). But if the forum communities start getting really large, with a lot of topics and posts added daily or even hourly.. it might be nice to be able to subscribe to our favorite topics (i.e. subscribe via email). I'm not sure if I'd use it though. Probably not at first.
Is tokenbb using some kind of database in conjunction with the blockchain ? It should be necessary for users' profile informations, read/unread informations couldn't be stored in it ? (just asking, I'm not a developer, so I don't know the limits of these kind of systems).
It doesn't. When you paste the image, there's no upload process as there is on any steem frontends or hackmd.io. The editor should show
! [image.png] (imageurl)
but it shows
! [image.png] (0)
The date/time feature in the forum is good, but I think that the date format should be changeable.
There should be a "Settings" option for every user.
The current date format is Day-Month-Year (14.03.2019), but I (and many other people) use Year-Month-Day (2019.03.14).
Great idea! Definitely a planned feature for later, once we introduce user settings :)

I think that's a good idea.. or at least the date that Topics and Replies were posted - Sometimes it helps place a post in the right context, based on when it was posted. Example: If there is a form that publishes news, the date might be important.
BTW, imagine we have lots of users using anon accounts, how are RC's managed ? How many guest users accounts do you have ? And how many anons per guest user account ?
Got a solution, Giftgiver.me. Still being worked on, but with that and the hopes of direcet integration with dapps like tokenbb, RC issue should be a lot smaller of a problem.
@reggaemuffin VP and RC value for real accounts tho is a good idea imo, Especially if they are voting, I quite easily voted myself down to 39% VP for being too trigger happy here :) doh
I've been working on something that can give users free delegations for a limited time period when their RC is under a certain amount as long as they aren't blacklisted by a few blacklists of my choice. Fixing up the final bits of the backend of it, but I hope to get a good chunk of SP in there so new users can use the feature in the near future.
I'm pretty sure it's already in the todo list, but just in case, a report button, not to flag and downvote, but to report a post to the moderation team.
Also, moderation tools will have to include a delete post (not a real deletion because of the blockchain use, but the post would be hidden).
Ability to move a post from a category to another.
The main question is : how can a moderator move a topic from a category without editing it ?
I recommend that you make the actual amount of each Steem Reward clickable, so that users can view who upvoted a particular post, but I'd recommend against changing the appearance of the numbers (aside from adding a $ sign). I think it would add too much if you underlined it, or made the numbers bold. It's good enough for people to just stumble upon being able to discover who upvoted what without making the Reward amount over-complicated, or "too much". I really enjoy seeing who upvoted what on Steem-based Dapps and personally get discouraged, and in a significant way, when it is hard or impossible to see who voted what.
On the main page, post age is shown for every topic. Maybe the complete date should be displayed after a given duration (let's say 7 days).
Sometimes it makes a search easier to proceed.
I mean, when you post a topic, on the list it shows :
Title................... ..... ..... .... 4 hours ago
Title ......... ....... ...... .....2 days ago
......
And after some time, it would show :
Title .... .... ... .... ... ... 15/12/2003
instead of :
Title ... ... ... ... ... ... ..15 years ago
At the moment it is possible to upvote a topic in the summary view. Thus outside without reading it.
I don't think that someone will upvote a topic without opening it. So removing it will not reduce function.
I find it confusing, as I do not know what I'm going to upvote. Will I upvote the last contribution (profile image shown below user) or will I upvote the Author?
that would be good, I also want light mode sometime, also may be nice to schedule times of dark/light, some phone apps do that, you can say set dark theme from 8pm to 5am based on your device time, will put on request list.
It would be nice to see the votes and values next to each topic before signing in. I think it would encourage steem users to sign in and for non steem users, they can still guage the post popularity and seeing the value may also entice them to want to learn more about steem.
I saw the thread by bafi, but i wanted to do another one with my thoughts on how i think you should do the trending page.
This is just something i came up with off the top of my head based on what ive been seeing on other forum sites.
There should be what i would describe as a "global trending page" based on long term metrics. That would be a short list of the most popular forums. Other forums could be listed in "other forums" with the same metrics and based on general topics
Each forum should have a thread trending page that would take into account views/engagement/.. Spam might be a problem a bit, so i would give the power to forum owner/forum moderator to flag spam comments which would in turn eliminate the comments from the engagement metric. (could lead to censorship, but the forum is payed for and the forum owner should be allowed to moderate the comments made.)
If you decide to do a "one page fits all" (instead of seperate tabs like on Steemit) i would suggest you do a live feed of comments (cut if too long) on your starting page from all threads (If TokenBB takes off you can adjust that to comments made on trending threads). The reason for this is to create a dynamic feel. That things are happening. Someone might pick up a comment that they have something to say on, on a thread they wouldnt visit otherwise. (which leads to more engagement, forum owners are happy. etc.)
We are planning a forum explorer, but that will come a bit later. I do think we should have a dropdown for associated forums that the owner wants to associate with.
I'm not too mad about this cause that starts going into steemit.com trending territory and opens up to bots, but if it was ever offered then yes by admin enablement only. This is dangerous to start though.
Yes i love the live feed, could be like a twitter feed widget style.
Nice to know Esteem is doing this, but I think the core of this is open public forums, private messages don't really fit this idea, neither do private forums which we have declined to do for now. I will add it potentially to the roadmap.
I'm not really sure if this is possible with a website but it seems like @dollarvigilante has this on their website and I would personally like Push Notifications for new posts on all of the Forums I will create.
Email notifications would be a second option but Push Notifications on my phone, or Desktop notifications like what Facebook does would be really good.
Once this gets going, I plan on making a career off of discussing things and Forumning - Steem and my stake in Steem might make that possible!
P.S. Active users a.k.a. Super Users might like this feature.
hi @chrisrice,
thank you for the suggestion, push notifications are on the roadmap but in the meantime you can use GINAbot to get instant notifications through Discord on mobile, web, and desktop. After you have downloaded Discord from your app store, follow these steps to setup:
Its hard to know if you are logged in as yourself or as anon. I made multiple posts as anon by accident. Also, connecting you account with Keychain caused a bug that forced me to use steemconnect.
We are currently improving that login flow, thank you for your feedback! Sometimes keychain borkes out so we automatically redirect to steemconnect in such cases to make sure there is an alternative.
yip it's awesome, I would like to see a differentiated guest name tho, like guest user#123 so we can refer to a particular guest in comment, have added to task manager
I would find it cool if you had a lvl system here where you clime lvls by posting and by getting upvotet here. With higher Lvls you then get acces to more smilies, gifs, backrounds or other cosmetics.

I saw this feature on some boards. If a new answer was posted while you were typing yours, a warning appears when you hit Reply, allowing to see it before posting.
One of the greatest appeals of forums Powered by TokenBB (in relation to standard forums) is the ability to earn by foruming. Because of it's attractive nature, I recommend that you place a $ sign in front of the Steem rewards for each topic, and each post. Otherwise, some people (new to Steem) may not even know it's points, rewards or anything like that. As it stands now, it just looks like random numbers in the corner of the posts (to non-Steemians). One of the beautiful things about TokenBB is that people can just forum, without having to sign-up for Steem or even wanting to earn. But for newcomers, it would still peak their interest if they saw $ signs on the side of each post, and it might keep an otherwise bounce on the Forum, long enough on the site to learn more more (ie they might eventually become an active user). That is why I think it's good to add $ signs in front of the Steem Rewards.
I definitely think the $ symbol is the absolute best symbol to use. Throughout the world, the $ symbol is the most universal symbol for money, so if you want people to know that it is a real currency being earned.. and not just "Points".. use a $ symbol. People will eventually discover that it isn't $USD for themselves later on anyways.. just like I did. If you use any other symbol, you risk people thinking it is just fake money, monopoly money so to speak, or just points like Waze or Shopee Rewards. Remember, first impressions last and it is important for people to see that real money can be earned in the first few seconds they open the site - otherwise.. they may leave the site after a few seconds and never return. Using a $ sign will probably increase the stickiness of first time visitors and it would help me market my TokenBB forum.
nice @reggaemuffin it would be cool if when the slider is moved you could see the prospective upvote value at that % VP, much like how SteemPlus shows it
Hey guys!
A feature that could really improve the usage of the website is to make usernames clickable and get a button "show topic started" - "show all posts". That way it will be really easy to read about things we care.
Another cool one is to add in the Account section a page called "my posts" or "my threads" to have them all gathered in a single place.

We are planning user profiles and have a task request for them open here. They will do what you suggested and more ;)
Finally got around to playing with TokenBB for the first time and it's looking good so far! The payment tiers don't look at all unreasonable to me, but one thing I'd love to see is the possibility of these being automated or "earned." Not to compare the two projects, but that was one aspect ChainBB had developed that was interesting. Better revenue splits and tiers were automatically unlocked as the earnings flowing through your forum grew, and along with it the hosts/developers revenue.
With the structure of these plans, there are points at which the economics for the forum owner dictate a clear switchover. If my math is correct, the Basic plan should be purchased as soon as $180 USD a month of rewards are flowing through a forum's posts, Standard at $800, and Premium at $1600.
While owners can and should be incentivized to purchase premium packages to get quicker access to features that will help them customize and grow their forum faster, I think they could also earn these features by growing their volume alone.
It also makes it nice that forum owners don't have to worry about sending payments each month, nor do you have to worry about invoicing and collecting them, as long as their forum is sustaining suitable activity to keep them in the proper tier. The 180/800/1600 breakpoints above are the points where it is revenue neutral to TokenBB and fair to the consumers to simply grant them access to the upgraded features of the next plan level.
Hope that all makes sense and might be at least a bit of food for thought!
I also agree that TokenBB should always take at least some cut, and out of ALL TokenBB forums.
The Forums with the most traffic will likely opt for Premium accounts and a flat fee likely wouldn't be enough compensation from your top performing Forums in the future (80% of your money will probably come from 20% of your forums, but it will only be a decent amount of income if you take a %, not just small flat fees a.k.a. Pareto Principle).
It's better to always include a % of some kind. It's what Google Adsense uses and I think they use % for a reason. If they allowed flat fees that would undercut their revenenues they would likely be worth a lot less.
Yes Steemninja requieres a Credit Card , but if you create a account with steemninja you get 15 SP Delegation for 3 Month !
If you use the api the created Account has no Steempower.
You can pay in STEEM but it is priced in USD for predictability of payment. We are marketing this to outside people who have no clue about how much a STEEM is worth and maybe don't care.
ANd we the developers will need a predictable income to not have a 70% staff layoff because of a bear market :)
Ah, now there's a bug! It just allowed posting of an empty comment.
Back on topic, before deciding on a % worth looking at some of the mechanics of posting and commenting - this is from experience of using chainBB when it was monetised.
Do new posts only appear if posted via tokenbb?
Do comments made on other platforms appear within the forum?
So, all depends on how easy it is to bypass the beneficiaries, though I'd set it low to encourage use - chainBB used to be 15% which was a tad high and frustrated uptake.
Also, bizarrely, many people don't know what a forum is!! Honestly!
@bryan-imhoff thanks for your in depth thoughts on this, I am hover just thinking of some edge cases where a forum may be for a small community or used as a bug hunt forum like ours, which won't have massive revenue flow, but may still want all of the features, in such a case the owner can pay for the features at anytime instead of having to bring in earnings.
It is also like "the chicken and the egg", a forum needs good features such as more flexible beneficiary options to draw the crowd, and the plan model makes most sense for this. We live in an instant gratification society whereby users want to access features today and not wait to earn them.
Another consideration is what happens when the forum hits the target volume for the extra features, but later dies down in popularity, would they lose their extra features?
Free - 10% TokenBB, no beneficiary reward for forum owner.
Basic Plan - 9 USD pm 5% TokenBB, 5% Forum owner.
Standard Plan - 29 USD pm 2.5% TokenBB, 7.5% Forum owner, with flexibility for forum owner to give a part/all of his reward pool to thread/topic creators, or disable the 7.5% rewards completely. + ability to add custom theme and logo.
Premium Plan - 69 USD pm Fixed monthly fee for TokebBB and full customisation of beneficiary rewards for forum owner, including split to thread/topic creators. Business class private support channel.
@chrisrice, I agree the lowest cut TokenBB should take is 2.5%, we are thinking of the following packages:
Free - 5% TokenBB, no beneficiary reward for forum owner.
Cruiser Plan - 25 USD pm? 5% TokenBB, 5% Forum owner, with flexibility for forum owner to give a part of his reward pool to thread/topic creators.
Standard Plan - 49 USD pm? 5% TokenBB, 5% Forum owner, with flexibility for forum owner to give a part of his reward pool to thread/topic creators.
Premium Plan - 89 USD pm? Fixed monthly fee for TokebBB and full customisation of beneficiary rewards for forum owner, including split to thread/topic creators.
Interested in user feedback on monthly prices approximated above, I know it's tempting to say make it rock bottom, but consider you want TokenBB to be actively developed and maintained sustainably and remain active long term.
Also better names for the packages would be helpful. :)
Edit: Standard Plan - 49 USD pm? 2.5% TokenBB, 7.5% Forum owner, with flexibility for forum owner to give a part of his reward pool to thread/topic creators.
Free steem account creation is tricky to code now, we would rather redirect to a page with quicksteem, steem ninja and steem monsters account creation methods.
Own domains possible on all packages we would have to implement blocking of sorts but once active its hard to turn off, so would rather get some traction first then decide on this carefully.

Premium Plan - 69 USD pm. 1% TokenBB, 9% forum owner beneficiary split + full customisation of beneficiary rewards for forum owner, including split to thread/topic creators. Business class private support channel.
We also plan to have a fixed monthly USD fee for forum owners who do not want tokenbb to take its share of forum rewards. I would also add the ability for such premium accounts to allow the owner to increase their own beneficiary rewards in the absence of the tokenbb share, up to the global max that tokenbb allows.
@sebbbl ads are really ugly and give a "cheap" feel to the forums, I may not be in favour of that, maybe would be ok on a sports forum as sports ads are somewhat acceptable and commonplace.

Standard pricing methods... Seems reasonable.
What you could maybe explore is ad revenue shares or what BAT is doing. Platform specific token rewards for thread/forum owners that opt for viewing ads on their forums.
I know that would be quite difficult to code.
Im not a fan of ads but there are ways to implement them that i dont mind in the slightest.
I love what BAT does and I said Steemit should do it with their ads, I really hate ads, but yes could be possible, I don't want that to derail us tho, so can be looked at later.
Simply put, I would like the form owner to be able to coustomize their own part, but up to a certian amount, maybe 10%. As for tokenbb's amount, it should be at max 5% and reevulated every 3 months or right after a HF depending on what happens sooner.
@rishi556 on all our paid plans we take 5% or 2.5%, or nothing if premium. Forum owner can customise own part up to 7.5% on standard plan, and unlimited customisation on Premium plan.
We can look at reviewing our % over time, for now we have no idea of what revenue will come in, it is easier to drop our % than increase it over time, so better to start higher otherwise trying to increase faces more pushback.
I think it would be good to allow non-paying forum owners to take up to 10% of the rewards from their forum and offer even more flexibility for Premium forum owners, especially for unusual circumstances i.e. If someone commits 10,000,000 Steem Power to reward the users of a particular forum, there should be a limit no less than 75%. It would be a free market, and it may attract large investors and would likely reward users much more than setting the limit too low.
EXAMPLE:
If Premium forum owners set the beneficiary rewards too high, people will simply stop using their forums and will choose an alternative, especially since making an alternative of a TokenBB forum is a lot easier than making a Facebook alternative (the user data is public unlike Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, Quora etc.)
Allowing higher beneficiary rewards might help entrepreneurs and forum owners raise higher delegations for their users if they agree to funnel most of the profits from their forum to delegators... but you can charge different fees for different limits and on a sliding scale - 75% would be the most expensive and only accepted under extremely unusual circumstances and requires an official proposal, followed by 60%, 50%, 40%, 30%, 20% and then the free version of 10% and below.
I believe a cut of 35% of the 10%-Beneficiary-Rewards-Cut would be a good starting point for TokenBB to raise funds from forum owners, but this can also be decreased if someone makes a competing platforum for forums and offers a better deal.
The key is not to underprice your services in the beginning since cutting prices will always be popular, but increasing prices if you set it too low at first can leave a really bad taste in people's mouth.
I don't know how high I'll set Beneficiary rewards for my forums but it would help if you made it flexible, since I want to funnel most of the rewards to delegators who will in turn, reward my forum users much to their liking - My ultimate goal is to enable people to earn decently well, just through their contributions on DavaoCity.xyz and other sites and forums.
If the beneficiary reward cut is to low, like 2.5% or even 5% for forum owners, newcomers with little Steem Power (like me) will have a hard time attracting investors and may not even be able to reward their users at all. Please take that into account.
The lowest cut I think TokenBB should take is 2.5% of total rewards.
He feels beneficiary rewards deter usage, which is why I mentioned with our premium subscription beneficiary rewards can be tweaked or removed altogther.
He also thought that thread/topic creators would get a beneficiary share and that isn't actually a bad idea, we should consider a 3 way split between tokenbb/forum owner /thread creators which will hopefully stimulate activity and curation happening within each topic by the creator of the topic, this could be very healthy for engagement and content creation.
Do new posts only appear if posted via tokenbb? Yes
Do comments made on other platforms appear within the forum? No
So, all depends on how easy it is to bypass the beneficiaries, though I’d set it low to encourage use - chainBB used to be 15% which was a tad high and frustrated uptake. - Agreed, 10% should be max overall imo
I absolutely agree premium features should be purchasable immediately @cryptodrive. It's a choice for the consumer and an upsell for TokenBB!
Under an automated system, if a forum were to fall below it's thresholds for a defined period, say 60 days, invoicing to pay direct to retain premium features could begin.
Even if it's not fully automated, I guess I'd advocate for admin tools that show and prompt when it's clearly time to upgrade a forum to the next level so that users don't end up overpaying. These kinds of progress bars and reporting also add a level of gamification that can help motivate forum admins to drive more traffic and build their forum level.
In running the numbers, I also feel like you may actually be undercharging a bit on the high end, depending on what infrastructure and service support you may need to run on TokenBB in the backend. For instance, $69 seems like a lot when an individual is paying it out of pocket, but when just $1600 of rewards flow a month makes that top tier economically feasible, that's really not a huge amount. I do think removing the TokenBB reward share completely should be at a higher point than that. Perhaps Premium could still carry a 1% share to TokenBB that caps at a certain USD amount at which point a forum becomes a business or enterprise level client.
Thanks for the extra expansion on this @bryan-imhoff, some of the ideas are good, especially carrying a nominal 1% tokenbb beneficiary into premium. and notifications if the forum isn't earning enough to maintain the extra features and needs to switch to paid plan.
imo it may be difficult to code this payment system at the start, but it could be something that evolves, maybe we revise pricing annually or so.
Probably somewhere between 2.5/2.5 and 5/5. Perhaps the latter is too high?
edit: ah I see the conversation has moved on. While I would like to earn a percent on the Free package, I understand why you might want to charge for the ability to set beneficiaries for the forum owner. I'm just tight with my STEEM, no matter how small the amount is. ;)
@chrisrice can you elaborate on "If someone commits 10,000,000 Steem Power to reward the users of a particular forum, there should be a limit no less than 75%." - I don't fully understand it.
@revo sounds good, looking forward to forums popping up everywhere,
Just be aware the free version is 10% to tokenbb, the standard plan will be $9 per month and then the forum owner gets 5%/5% split. I would suggest going with free until you are set up and start getting traction.
Every forum has it : a small button linking to the latest message placed just after the topic title. Alternatively, the "latest reply" column date/time can point to the latest post.
signatures derail the conversation flow though, I was hit up bigtime in my early days on Steem for doing that. @reggaemuffin@sebbbl I don't recommend that.
Adpoting a material theming design, with ability, for admins, to change icons easily (for example the voting buttong which looks like a car steering wheel).
I have two domain names that match each other very well and I want to use one as a forum, and the other as a Steem-based Wiki.
Since I learn best and even clarify my ideas best through discussions and conversations, I'd like to discuss the specific topics of interest on the TokenBB forum I create, and then publish the final or semi-final conclusions on the matching domain name in the form of a Wiki.
I stopped using Quora some time ago but I noticed that they also started adding in Wikis. Adding in Wikis into social apps somehow might become more widespread someday - one.of the things that Wikipedia lacks is benefits like visibility for their contributors. This would bring two great tools together on the Steem blockchain, it would empower people and.some of the code might already have been done by @steempedia.com.
I haven't tested their code yet but supposedly it's open source. If it's work already and can be used please let me know. I didn't understand whether or not it is already a finished project.
P.S. It might be another worthy project for @buildteam if it is almost finished.
I think their project is pretty dead, last post was 4 months ago and their Discord is empty, so definitely a gap in the market there. Is on our roadmap now.
I saw the post @chrisrice but it is 4 months old and no updates, I think when they saw they only got $8 on the post they abandoned again. The github is there but only their old one, and is only the frontend, no backend engine. I suspect we would start from scratch anyway using TokenBB as a base to work from.
I don't want to derail TokenBB at the moment, I say we develop it as best as we can and then hand it over to our marketing team to spread it far and wide, at that point the devs can start a new project.
Good. I'm happy to hear that @buildteam will be pursuing this. If you're not aware, @steepshot also went offline a little bit ago and turned into a dead project as well.
The open source code for @steepshot is open source too, and I have a unique idea for their software that I think would also be worth pursuing.
I will ask you privately on Discord what the requirements are for creating a BuildTeam project. I am interested in being a part of something that I can continuously add ideas too and I have a domain name that would go perfect with @steepshot's Open Source software.
Yeah @thecryptodrive I think that was the issue too. But isn't their software open source, allowing anyone and everyone to use it for their own projects?
Build Team might be able to move first to contact them and partner with them if their code is good.
Once the market turns around which I think it is already doing now, they might transform from dormant to active and Build Team as a company might want to prepare themselves ahead of time and partner with them early on.
They supposedly have a Github but you'd have to check the code to see if it is good. I haven't personally checked it yet but I want to use a Steem-based Wiki for @humanism.
Let me know if you can find anything useful from them. I will text my friend soon to see if he saw my recent message about him working with you guys.
I noticed after the recent TokenBB ...update that the $ Votes were not visible and I actually thought the site was broken. So I stopped using the site for a bit and checked after a few hours.. after a few hours the votes on the right hand side .of Topics and Replies hadn't appeared yet.
That is when I clicked on the Hamburger Menu in the upper right hand side of my mobile to see if I could figure out what was wrong and as it turns out.. I was logged out.
I logged in and sure enough, the votes on the side of the Topics re-appeared.
Aside from some people thinking the site might be broken when they are logged out.. new users who are first time visitors will not immediately see the $ signs, so they'll not know from the start that TokenBB is different from other websites and forums (users get paid for contributions).
I recommend that you make the $ signs and votes visible, even for people who are visiting for the first time and in the first few seconds. It will be a free marketing tool and forum owner will not need to market their sites as websites that compensates users, people will discover it themselves and instantly in some cases.
This would prevent people from falling into the "too good to be true" ideology and would make it much easier to attract active members and new sign-ups IMO.
@chrisrice the Custom domain feature is tricky because we need to find a work around to each custom domain being able to be used without implicitly having to trust it with our sign on app. Should have a solution during March but not immediate, for the the tokenbb subdomains work.
SSL should be part of that too.
The $ signs when logged out has been a request from a few people, probably a good idea and not too had.
I purchased SSL from Uniregistry for $20.00 USD 3 to 4 days ago and have been in contact with them off and on but I'm being given the run-around about how to actually install it.
Please make it easy for Forum Owners to use custom domains with SSL and have FAQ and Q&A pages for people who hold their domains on popular sites like GoDaddy and Uniregistry.
Most of my domains are held at Uniregistry and I'm eager to promote DavaoCity.xyz but I cannot until it has SSL (Facebook and othet sites won't allow it).
I think it would be good to have a standard search bar that people could use to Search the Forum they are on and give it the abiity to filter via Categories, dates, authors, etc.
.But this feature can be rolled out later and not right away, expecially the filters part of it.
Most other fourms let us quote other user's words and end up looking something like this:
User's Name
"User's words"
It would be a pretty importnat feature to have as a forum site. It should also be able to span multiple layers so quotes on top of other quotes and needs a easy to tell way that it was quoted. Plus a button on the comment to quote it would also be necessary.
@rishi556 said :

Quotes are already possible via markdown, but it is true a simple button would be cool. The suggestion was already made and I remember it's already on the todo list.
Would be nice if like on Discord it could give you clickable suggestions for the names of users you are trying to mention, so you don't have to type the whole name.
Would be nice to have a drop down, say to the left of the "Categories" button with various forums that can be selected that are related to the forum owner, say for example the owner is Blizzard, they can then list each of their games as a separate selectable forum, this is good for Sports forums as well where more community seggragation is needed.
If anyone likes this idea I will add to the task list.
@reggaemuffin if you are going to list all forums that are not directly related to the forum owner, which could potentially include competitors as well, I would not display that blatently but a bit more hidden in the "Account" menu > "Forum Directory".
I would suggest the name "Forum Explorer" as being more modern and this will allow users to explore the world of Tokenbb forums, the forums should be listed in alphabetical order but with option to sort by genre and forum activity, a search would be nice there too incase the list is huge, pagination will be needed as well.
I am using the Dark version of TokenBB on DavaoCity.xyz and noticed that the font of the Categories is Dark Blue on a Black background.
The Categories are very hard to read after you open the Categories drop-down menu.
I recommend that you change the font of the Categories in the drop-down menu to white so that it will be easy to read, and it will still be different from the light blue text currenly used for Topic text.
I just realized that the color of the Category text on the mobile version of TokenBB already looks nice and is readable.
But the text color of the Desktop version of the Categories in the Category drop-down menu on a mobile phone is very hard to read in Dark mode (i.e. DavaoCity.xyz).
I think this should be fixed since some people might want to view the Desktop version in Dark Mode on their mobile phones, and due to the forwarding I am using, my site DavaoCity.xyz is Desktop View and won't display the Mobile View.
Currently fourm.tokenbb is creating post forum by fourm. If you look at the above image, you will see it is more than 600 comments. It will grow more and more and can not read in a few more days. It is hard to find the comments you want in steemit. It will look like a garbage. In stead of posting like this it should change topic by topic. So we can easily find the comments we want and the structure will be very nice. It would need a lot of SP to post topic by topic. I hope you can handle it.
@mmunited this is intentional. Just don't view it on steemit.com or similar interfaces :D
The idea is that you can create a topic without it appearing in your steemit.com followers feed. And that requires it to be comments. We decided on one post per forum to have it grouped very simple.
If you have problems loading 600 comments then my suggestion is, don't. Our view in Steemit.com links link to one specific comment to reduce complexity and we link to tokenbb in gina and in all steem interfaces so that their interface does not have to die down because of comments.
And remember, if you reply from a random other interface, it will be ignored ;)
@mmunited, I'm not 100% sure what you mean, what you see on Steemit is just storage, users are not supposed to use Steemit.com to engage the forum, @reggaemuffin@cryptoctopus please read this suggestion, I may not be understanding.
When I open the Hamburger Menu in the upper right-hand-corner (Mobile View on Mobile) and then click on All Categories, the Categories drop-down-menu opens, but the Hamburger Menu fails to close (it remains open too). This leads to the Hamburger menu hiding the opened Categories drop-down-menu and it blocks the majority of the opened categories from view. In order to make the site more clean, and seamless, I recommend you implement some code to force the Hamburger Menu to close whenever you open the Categories drop-down-menu.
Isn't the New Topic, always the first post in every Topic? I think TokenBB is setup like tradition Forums, and I don't think it would be good for people to have to write a full blog post as a topic. But it would be good to have the word "New" highlighted somewhere for new posts, but it is only an idea. I also think the formating i.e. Bold, Italic, Underline, linebreaks, username tags, hyperlinks and embedsed images should work soon, they don't work yet.
Yeah.. TokenBB is setup as an online forum, and it is much different than a blogging platform like Steemit.
The initial Topic being identical to the following posts, or at least close to identical is normal, but some forums display the word "New" in the overall feed when a post is a New Topic.
Other than that.. posts underneath a New Topic are identical to the initial topic, and hold just as much weight - Sometimes the posts in the middle of a topic even become more important than the Original Topic.
Hi! I agree with you chrisrice. Our goal is to reduce to a minimum the cognitive load of using TokenBB. We want people who are used to forums to know exactly what they are dealing with. Thanks @aftabkhan10 for the suggestion though.
Then, if someone wants to vote less then 100% they can long press on the upvote button and adjust the slider then click on the upvote button on the popup to confirm their desired amount.
Another way to fix this would be to make it impossible to upvote with one click and require everyone to use the slider and confirm the upvote in the popup instead.
I am having issues since my upvote at 10% strength is only worth $0.002 and the threshold for payments is $0.02.
I want to upvote as many people as I can on Humanist.xyz but if it votes at 10% it doesn't even let me take the vote back and upvote at 100%.. on Steemit it's possible to change an upvote we make, but if you clear the issue and make the default upvote 100% or require a confirmation in the pop-up with the slider, it would solve both issues.
Another option is to let users take back their upvote but that might make the UI more complex and it seems like simple and basic is sometimes a better approach:
Example:
Facebook beat Myspace by offering a simpler interface.. at least that us my theory.
We probably need the ability to unvote too @reggaemuffin :)
Good point! We might also want to allow flags and everything.
But there is a discussion to be had about simplifying the current interface, basically just allowing one vote and done. We have to think about users coming from facebook who don't care about percentages and stuff like that. So it might bake sense to have the upvote button be locked at 100% for new users and then in your user settings you can enable advanced mode with percentage, unvotes and maybe downvotes.

@reggaemuffin I fully agree with this, default is 100% with no slider, advanced settings to enable slider. We do have to offer unvote, cause Facebook allows you to unlike.
@thecryptodrive:
Hi @nojo121, I have run this past our team and we will fix the overflow, the box layout however we will decide internally which style we prefer as a default, it can be customised per theme however when a user purchases a forum. We are also looking at maybe a hybrid approach where the box is open sided on the right.
Yeah I think your Hybrid approach would look nice :)

Hi @nojo121, I have run this past our team and we will fix the overflow, the box layout however we will decide internally which style we prefer as a default, it can be customised per theme however when a user purchases a forum.

This can be addressed in the distant future then
but I think LastPass and their Browser will become especially popular in the Steem community, especially since Steemit Inc. recommends it as an option (in a post by @steemitblog).
LastPass is a password keeper but in their app.. they have a secure Browser.
This sounds like that safe browser is blocking cookies in some form or another, which blockes the cookie your computer saved that is telling tokenbb that you are you. So it will log you out.
If that browser can allow that cookie it will work. But that needs to be a feature of the browser :/
@chrisrice how popular is Lastpass browser, we are currently supporting the main browsers like Brave, Chrome, Firefox. Beyond that it is too much overhead to test every browser in a first product release, there is Opera and many others that we currently don't test.

LastPass is a password keeper but in their app.. they have a secure Browser.
like for example on brave I have to turn shields off, and on chrome I have to whitelist tokenbb.io on my ad blocker, there has to be a whitelisting option on lastbrowser.
The upvote values are wrong. Example: In the suggestion tab the thread list shows different upvote values then when you click and open the thread.
List shows 0.058 while actual values is 2.5
I have tried to upvote posts 4 to 5 times on my Samsung Note 5, but each time I tried, I had trouble selecting the amount of Voting Power I wanted. When I clicked to upvote a slider appeared, but it would randomly disappear without me being able to properly select the strength of my vote.
You can check @steeveapp's upvote slider as use it as a reference. I have had a great experience using their upvote soider via mobile and it's been consistent 👍🏻
I logged in with Steem keychain and I was asked to give buildteam the posting authority. After doing this I could not post: I first needed to logout and login again.
I created a New Topic in my forum, and in the message of that topic, I placed spaces between two of the paragraphs, so that my post would display correctly. But TokenBB erased all the spaces, and only displayed a maximum of one letter worth of space, instead of the linebreaks I entered between the paragraphs. I created the linebreaks by pressing the "Enter" key on my keyboard (laptop).
When you hover your mouse over the drop downs it's almost impossible to see. Second picture is more what I actually see as I took a screenshot instead of "snipping". Version 70.0.3538.67 (Official Build) (64-bit) Also just tried using keychain to log on with chrome. It just shows the anon account as shown in the picture. When I click anon it shows my picture and account with a red exclamation, but until I log onto my steemconnect it won't let me use my profile.
The latest post on this test site often shows a reward of about $2.60, but if you click on the actual post.. it will show that the post only has about $0.14 or so in rewards.
The calculation is still wrong sometimes.. I cannot post images so I cannot give you a screenshot, but this "Topic" as an example, showed $0.00 Rewards, but once I opened it.. I can see that you already earned $0.261, so I think it should reflect in the entire Topic. I also noticed the original error I posted in this report, and it was for topics that didn't accumulate that much in rewards. But I'll double check. It's a shame that I cannot post screenshots.
I noticed that the categories I chose for the 2 topics I posted say "Oops" when I initially visit DavaoCity.xyz. It goes away, and shows the proper categories after I narrow my search from all categories to any of the specific categories, then click Home again.
When you finish creating a new topic, you get redirected to the main page but the info of the post is not the right one (like how many upvotes and dollars)
Pictures follow.
When you click a topic title on the board, you are taken to the latest post instead of the first, so you must scroll up to the first post to read it. Not very nice when there are lots of answers.
The idea was to continue the discussion at the end. But we will probably do both, normal click is on the start, and a special button will scroll to the last comment
Show the name value from steem database instead of the username is my suggestion.
Thanks for the suggestion, however we have to set our own limits because some users have long display names, so we will have to have our own version of the steemit display name in the user profile, also we dont want to be reliant on steemit.com
Got this bug in my eye that while surfing the forums you come to see threads but its showing false value of upvotes and earnings i.e. my thread for suggestion showing at topmost with 9 upvotes and $3.59 earning to me but there is no one upvote and any income :(

yes, we've noticed that. We believe it is a caching issue. We are working on resolving that.
Sorry if I'm bumping this thread a bit late, but it seemed a similar issue for me.
I had a difficult time with my first login. Keychain and Steemconnect both failed to work in the Brave browser, Steemconnect failed in Safari, but I was finally able to login with Steemconnect in Firefox. So I'm wondering if there may be browser compatibility bugs at the moment. All this is on Mac OS 10.14.3
Just my observations, thanks much for the hard work!
Just a quick follow up. After reading someone else's thread here, I found I could log in with both Keychain and Steemconnect on the Brave browser if I disabled the shield feature. Still no luck getting Steemconnect to work via Safari browser.
It was just prior to my first comment @cryptodrive, so less than 2 hours ago and I'd not visited the site prior to have a preloaded version. I certainly had other tabs open but doubt that would be a factor. In the other browsers the SteemConnect or Keychain windows would seemingly function just fine but fail to show any change on the site, either through the top "Connect" button, or the bottom "Login to Reply" button.
While using an iPhone, the Categories that I hover on, in the Categories Drop-down-menu, get completely blacked out. I recommend that you change the Hover-on-text-color to white, from the color black, so that the letters & words that make up that Categories are visible while the Hover-On-Highlighter. I think this is actually a bug that nobody noticed but I'm not sure if it falls under bug or "suggestion" instead.
I created a new Topic in one of my forums, and tagged one of my friends, but the username doesn't hyperlink to their profile, and I don't think it is actually tagging them, like it is supposed to, i.e. on other Steem based sites. EXAMPLE: @chrisrice I don't think it tagged me there! This is an important feature, especially with trying to market and promote TokenBB.
On the board view, date doesn't show if there's no reply. The column should be named "last message" and take the first message into account and show its posting time.
When I visit https://davaocity.tokenbb.io/ on an iPhone, and click on the Categories-drop-down-menu to select a category, the "All Categories" category is partially cut off (Mobile View). But on test.tokenbb.io, the categories appear perfect, including the "All Categories" category, when the drop-down-menu is opened.
I noticed that this happens on DavaoCity.tokenbb.io and I think it's because I have a lot of categories, and the grey header with the home button (logo) blocks some of the upper categories. If you can make the grey header with the Home button and hamburger menu in the upper right side, disappear when the drop down menu is opened, I think it will display the categories properly, even when people include a long list of categories.
As you can see on the screen, your layout is not perfect.
In the second screenshot, you can see how it is not convenient to write a post. I do not have such good eyesight, but there are people with very bad ones. Do not leave space when working screens are so small.
Sorry, I did not save the screenshots on the computer. And for a new look for it, honestly, there is no time. P.S. I am now busy creating the game, I plan for the steem platform. but also to look for a sponsor, Unfortunately, my current sponsor has lost money on another project and now I have absolutely no time. To test other sites.
I like the new theme. I keep checking if the login is fixed on Brave with the Shield on and thought it was working but after going through with steemconnect it doesn't log me in. Turning off the Shield and everything seems to be OK
you will need whitelist https://auth.buildteam.io for cookies to have login work.And so far there is no way to show brave that it is not a third party domain
Yeah shield is currently blocking our authentification cookie and I don't think that there is a good technicaly way to prevent that. But we will look into it!
I created a category with an "&" sign in it, but it is displayed as the HTML version of the & sign instead. It looks bad for the users, and I think it's important to fix since you only allow short titles for categories, and the sign "&" is shorter than the word "and".
I clicked on "Create a New Topic" on my online forum, and typed in a message, but once it was published, the bold text didn't display as bold, it displays as plain text with the HTML, or Steem code "" on the outer sides of the word (instead of the words appearing in bold). When I was still editing the message, the bold displayed correctly in the preview section, but once it was published, it went back to plain text with the code "" on each side of the text.
Even when we use the markdown, the link publishes as black text in the actual post @thecryptodrive.
It indicates in the Preview that it will publish the hyperlink as blue, but once you submit your post or reply.. it publishes as black, not blue.
Please update the hyperlink font color so that the text is blue, not black. This will ensure that people can easily distinguish hyperlinks from regular text.
That works too, but I personally prefer a different color for links.. it's easier to recognize links, especially for people who don't want to strain their eyes.
Facebook kind of has it's own browser nowadays, and when a person shares a link via Facebook messenger, the link will load inside Facebook as opposed to inside Google chrome directly. I have shared the test.tokenbb.io link, and my forum links on FB messenget, but I realized that both of those sites don't load inside Facebook correctly. It just a blank screen, and doesn't show anything until you click on the settings in the Facebook messenger and click "Open in Chrome".
@sebbbl it is not a UI setting, basically a transaction you send to the chain that changes some of your voteselling and general settings to auto power up your account and to promote chainbb comments wtih small amounts. If you have keychain enabled, feel free to try it out :)
Hi @Steem-fan, I am bringing our discussion from the Steem blog here to our forum.
Your question is:
Hello. I have a question.
I want to be the creator and the main one on the forum, but I want to give a friend access to one section, so that he can control them completely, how can this be done?
He leads a Russian-speaking community on steemmonsters.
If there is no such function now, is it planned in the future?

Hey everyone!
We've made HUGE progress in the past month! We now have a full category/sub-category feature along with a lot of improvement on the front-end such as re-editing your own posts and quoting others for better conversation flow.
There is still a long road ahead to bring this software to its full strength but with your support, we'll get there. :-)
To celebrate that, free upvote for everyone on this thread!
PS: Did you know you can now start your own TokenBB forum with your own subdomain? Register your forum today at https://tokenbb.io/
PS(2): One upvote per person for the next 7 days and we hide spam.

How would you describe the benefits of this interface versus other front ends?
I actually do have one feedback item. On mobile (Android), I am having difficulty scrolling up in the text box but instead scrolls the entire screen. I am able to scroll if I grab and drag the cursor however. Not an Android developer but perhaps there is a way to enable scrolling on the text box after the issue has clicked into it. Conversely, it should be disabled when they click on any area outside of it.
Hope this helps and good luck with the project.

My thoughts so far.
You comment on here and it doesn't show up on your steemit post. This is very cool. Since, I haven't made a post on Tokenbb yet, is there a way from keeping that post from showing up on the steemit/steempeak/busy feed of my followers. This has been one of my biggest complaints about apps like a zappl. I don't want a bunch of couple sentence posts showing up on my feed.
Any thoughts on adding a stand along "ranking" system on the platform to indicate moderator, senior member, newb etc? Also, signatures? I really liked how you could sign up to add a signature to your comments on bitcointalk.org and received a certain amount of bitcoin per comment as long as it wasn't just spam.
I like the side by side preview and the ability to sign in using keychain. Honestly, this looks awesome and may just be a way to get my friends back on Steemit!
Keep up the great work.

@blockchainstudio, thanks for the great feedback.
We will look into making your authorised account default on first sign-in, whew, so much to do still!
Regarding the Keychain request it is unlikely to change in the short-term Tokenbb is geared towards ease of use for our users, things should just work. Keychain would introduce subtle problems we can't mitigate in our own backend, retries, co-ordination with our database and even policing beneficiary reward status.
View the topic on TokenBB
Hi @thecryptodrive, thanks for your reply! Not many PO reply to users feedback sadly :) I actually didn't know you're in this project. To be honest, I always wonder why thecryptodrive is on the top witness list, now the mystery is resolved. If you haven't seen, you may find interest in my recent post: Witness of the people, by the people, for the people
ps. Regarding your answer, I got it if you need it in your backend. But I still don't understand why that backend logic is needed, maybe some efficiency? For instance, to me so far, steempeak works quite seamlessly with keychain without posting right authorization. I has retry feature for instance. While I agree that steemconnect style's posting right authorization has been a dominant way, but unless it's absolutely needed (e.g., voting automation, scheduled post), that should be avoided.
Anyway, tokenbb is actually very awesome project, and I'll try to contribute on GH too. Thanks!

This is because interactions with tokenbb require posting authority. I believe if you click the warning symbol, it should request access. However, that requires your active key to be in steem keychain (and possibly need a more recent version of steem keychain)

Thanks for the feedback and for stopping by! The #1 benefit is for communities to have their own sandbox hosted on their own domain. For example, DrugWars and SteemMonsters would be better off having a Steem powered forum on their own domain rather than having losing the attention on people over on steemit.com...it's also a great place to aggregrate all the content related to a topic. (it's also better for SEO)

I actually went looking at it yesterday with the intention of buying some. Created an account, thought about what i wanted to sell from my portfolio and then decided I really didn't want to go messing on another exchange and with more tokens. I just didn't like the layout on bitshares and the options to trade that i had. I decided to wait until they are ready for steem-engine and try to keep things a little simpler for myself.

Reply to TokenBB now in Beta!
I'm so glad you like the forum progress so far @gniksivart, how TokenBB works regarding comments is that everything happens within the @forums.tokenbb Steem account, a forum is basically a post and topics are comments and replies are nested comments, if that makes sense. There will never be a post on your account, however all of your comments will appear on your comments menu on Steemit.com or whatever other UI you use.
Ranking would be good, but probably has to be forum specific or have global ranking as well. I'm not a huge fan of signatures cause they can get messy and spammy and interrupt the flow of conversation, but may look at it much later when we run out of things to implement :)

Some users had problems linking their Steem account and they did not receive their green checkmark signaling that the account is authorized.
Our dev @eonwarped improved the login flow with steemconnect and keychain to solve this step automatically. So if you as a uer had this problem, you can try logging out and then login again with the steemconnect or keychain method and your account should automatically be fixed.
Please give us feedback for login issues, we are working hard to make this process as simple and unobstrusive as possible for you.

Some users noticed certain html elements being removed once they posted their comment.
We are sanitizing all html to protect readers from malicious content. But we noticed that this process was overcealous in what it removes. So we relaxed it a bit and enabled a notification for when parts of the html are removed. This means if you notice your comment lacking something it had in the editor then contact us and we will see about fixing it.
There is no need to clear any caches as this is a backend update.

Maybe the background is too dark, maybe use some gray as done on Discord, or a lighter blue, some texts are difficult to read.

Testing testing 123. I linked up my steem account via the keychain. Seems like the "Anon" or "accountname" switcher in the top-right doesn't update.... ### Markdown seems to work well enough though!

It's a shame the two posts above are now forever anon instead of converting to my username now that I've logged in properly.

Yeah the "Testing testing 123" was me. So it seems like tokenbb works via setting up a forum in an individual main-comment, and all replies are sub-comments -- very neat. I'll keep my eye on this -- might be cool to implement a forum for my own project in the not too distant future.

Topic: Testing out the Forum. Thoughts/Feedback
Lovely new addition by BT team. Actually heard recently a guy mention that he has a large group of people on facebook that would be interested in moving to Steem if Steem had an integrated Forum function.
So there you have it.
Ill send him the link.
From what im seeing here right now, As Cryptodrive said, its still looking bland a bit, like eating oatmeal. :D
(Oh look the smileys work already)
Didnt notice any bugs atm outside of the aesthetic and window positioning kind...
One thing i would recommend is that you try and avoid, at any cost, beneficiary fees.
That is the death of platforms here.
There are a number of ways you can monetize the forums...
An idea i had would be creating premium on-platform digital content similar to what Discord is doing... Even take a look at https://quidd.co/ that sells digital stickers.. Try and incorporate another monetization method or i fear beneficiary fees will scare a lot of people off. Try being imaginative in that regard.
Thats about it for now.. See ya around.

Reply to Testing out the Forum. Thoughts/Feedback
Thanks for the support and suggestion. We are working on the couple of models:
1- Split 50/50 of beneficiary rewards. So that it creates an incentives for forum owners to build their community and have instant monetization.
2- There is also the option that the owners pay us a monthly fee to have their forum and they get to keep the beneficiary rewards (set by them)
We are open to other suggestions. Ads could be part of the plan but it's definitely not a favorite of people in general. But the ad model could work.
View the topic on TokenBB
Reply to Testing out the Forum. Thoughts/Feedback
Ads could work, yes. I still think there is an opportunity here for more inovative solutions.
When you mention beneficiary fees, users tend to step back a bit. Especially now that a cut in author rewards is being talked about with the Blocktrades worker proposal system.

Reply to Can't our topics
That's another thing that I'm encountering too. I think it is important to be able to edit everything after it's already posted, and that includes being able to edit the post AND title at any time. But right now, Title's cannot be edited, and posts can only be edited on Steemit. My first preference would be to allow editing of the title and post on TokenBB, but if that's impossible due to blockchain constraints, being able to edit on Steemit would suffice. But if editing posts and titles must be done on Steemit.com, the link to Steemit should say "Edit on Steemit" instead of "View on Steemit" and should work seamlessly.

View this topic on TokenBB
Reply to Ok, I have my new forum.
I think from memory chainbb just had a single forum per subject area. So I had a Basic Income forum, and it was just a single forum with no categories or sub forums. So I was able to set it so that any time someone wrote a post on steem with the tags basicincome, ubi etc it would show up in the forum. There was no "importing" of posts, chainBB was basically just another front end on the steem blockchain. It was just a different way of organising the blockchain data.
Do you guys have a discord channel?

Reply to Ok, I have my new forum.
@revo, once logged in you should see a settings option in top left, there you can setup your categories, we can help you with categories and subcategories as the admin panel is not 100% finished, I think you can only set categories currently, but if you give us a site structure we can manually set it up for you. Have a look at https://drugwars.tokenbb.io for an example.
View the topic on TokenBB
There's no settings icon that I can see. In the top left is your tokenBB icon. Clicking it does nothing.
edit: logged out and in again, and it appeared. Cheers.
While I've got you here, another question...
Jesta's old chainBB forum allowed the admin of a forum to set tags that would pick up any steem posts matching those tags and include them in the forum. Is this an option on tokenBB?
Reply to Ok, I have my new forum.
@revo I saw your message come up but can't find it easily on chain as all messages go to one comments section. Ie the forum is a post, the topics and replies and the replies are nested comments. Also Tokenbb is one way, if you reply via Partiko or Steemit.com it won't show on the forum.
please can you paste everything you said over here on https://test.tokenbb.io. I did briefly see that you can't see the settings, I will get @reggaemuffin to look into it in about 8 hours.

Reply to Ok, I have my new forum.
@revo, can you expand on that a little? How were the posts imported, ie all the post data and images imported as a topic? or was just a post link imported as a reply in a specific topic?
What about comments on the post, were those imported too?
The idea is to be one-way otherwise people can write malicious code on the Steem side and gets imported to our blog, also having to poll the chain all the time for new updates makes it very resource intensive, but ur dev team can have better insights into whether this would be possible.
As you can see we need many urgent features like admin categories management first before we look at something like this.

hi we are a geoup of friends starting what we would like to be a DAO for a pilot community concept.

Hello! This is my first comment on TokenBB. I would like to mention the fact that TokenBB is not the first forum on the Steem blockchain. ChainBB (https://chainbb.com) was also a forum on the Steem blockchain. The website of ChainBB is still working, but the forum is offline since 2018.03.29. The details about this can be found in the following blog post: chainbb.com - going offline.

Keeping all the elements aligned would give it a more clean look. I’m on iOS and on portrait mode the background elements are lined up along the left with account section up top, but the typing section stretches far to the right, and the Steem value and upvote boxes leave the gray area of the screen. Maybe widening the background and account box to make it seem like everything is contained would help.

Topic: Open up customization options for forum owners.
What i think would be great is if you could allow a forum owner that might pay a premium price or is a subscriber the option of customizing his forum home page beyond the original tokenBB design. That would allow communities to visually differentiate themselves.
If you think about it, communities are basically modern tribes. And how do "tribes" (take a look at football fans) differentiate themselves?
By using different colors.

Hi @lordbutterfly, yes we do have plans for custom themes and the ability to specify light or dark at admin level, with user toggle.

We are also able to add tiled backgrounds currently on request.

Topic: Disable Mobile View (for now)
Since it has been said more than once that the desktop version is being worked on now, but the mobile version is not, I recommend that you guys disable the Mobile Version for now and make the Desktop version the default setting for mobile devices. DavaoCity.xyz always shows the Desktop version, even on mobile phones. Test.TokenBB.io on the other hand, shows a mobile version, and it might make some bug reports confusing to sift through since you have to determine if it was a Mobile View or a Desktop View.

Topic: After clicking on Categories, the category "All categories" is absent
I noticed that the "All Categories" category is absent when a person clicks on it to select a category. I am not sure about this, but I kind of think that the "All Categories" link should be included in the list of categories, even when a person clicks on the category dropdown menu to narrow their search. EXAMPLE: - There might be times when someone clicks on the categories dropdown menu to narror their search, but decide to go back to view All Categories. I have done this several times and it was uncomfortable to need to click "Back" on my cell phone, and I would have preferred to just navigate to the All Categories link naturally.

Topic: The Letters of the Categories when you View them are small.
I noticed that there was recently an update for the mobile version of TokenBB. It looks better, but when you click on the Categories, the letters and words of the categories on a Samsung Note 5 are TOO SMALL. When we click on the categories on a mobile phone, I believe the categories should be enlarged almost to the point of filling up the screen (full screen) - that way it will be easy for people to read the categories and see the letters clearly.. especially for people with smaller phones and poor eyesight.

Hi, guys.
If you have been around TokenBB since the inception of the previous user interface I know we can all agree that things are really coming together nicely. This is a project I am fully backing and would love to see become the ultimate Forum Software around.
Now, to help further that cause there are several things that can be implemented to improve the user experience. That is after all the best way to make people return several times over to a forum.
While returning to view a thread, users should be snapped directly to where they last were in that thread. Basically the last comment they viewed.
At the moment that is not available and you have to go through the pagination to find your comment.
You basically have to remember which page you were on in order to find your comment. That would be an amazing feature.
Thank you very much to the TokenBB team for this awesome product. I continue to support you through it all.

I think the best solution to that question in form of what is the user's request is sorting by the volume of last 2 weeks.

Trending is definitely an interesting metric. The question is how should it be defined.
We could do a sorting by top performers overall. We could do the last month. Or by volume in the last day.
I think the question would be what users want to see when they click that button. What goal do they want to achieve?

Trending was meant by amount of replies or views. We won't sort anything by payout, that is for sure :)
that is the goal. But more views over two weeks or a month or globally?

Reply to Trending topics
To me, in the forum context, the trending should be based on earnings but on how engaged a post is...like a composite of the amount of replies and maybe total payout...with a heavier balance on how many replies.
The goal of forums is to create long form conversations that are active...not trending based on how has the bigger upvote.

@neander-squirrel I have a challenge for you : When I click a tokenbb notification in Ginabot, check if a tokenbb tab is already open and opens the notified message in that tab. This will avoid to open multiple TokenBB tabs when using Gina for checking new messages.

Topic: Hall of Fame for Top Users
This is just an idea but it might be possible to create a Hall of Fame of the Top Users for each particular forum.. it can also be a Premium feature that can only be activated for paid Forum Owners.
The main Demo site could list the Top Users acrossed all TokenBB forums while each particular forum would only display the Top Users for their particular forum. But caution should be noted and this feature should be disabled by default IMO since it might crowd people's websites more than some owners prefer.
View this topic on TokenBB
Reply to Hall of Fame for Top Users
We also have to consider what metrics to use for the hall of fame/leaderboard, is it most active with replies, or highest value earnings upvote wise, etc, it can be gamed and can cause spam, i would make it a leaderboard that is forum specific and not global, users of a sports forum wouldn't really have anything to do with a forum on homesteading for example.
View the topic on TokenBB
Reply to Hall of Fame for Top Users
having the leaderboard localised per forum makes sense also because admins can control leaderboard farming accounts easier by deleting their comments which then won't count.If the leaderboard is global, there is no way for admins to tell if what they are doing on other forums is legit, there is an attack vector where someone could create their own forum for only the purpose of self voting so they can get to the top of the leaderboard rankings.

We have a database backend. The problem is if you have 10000 topics and 10000 users, you get 1000000 unread counters. It basically explodes very fast. So we have to find a way that is useful for the people using it but not breaking down once many use it

A subscribe-to-topic feature is an okay idea, but it isn't a deal breaker if you don't create one, especially in the beginning while the forum communities are still small (it might be unneccesary). But if the forum communities start getting really large, with a lot of topics and posts added daily or even hourly.. it might be nice to be able to subscribe to our favorite topics (i.e. subscribe via email). I'm not sure if I'd use it though. Probably not at first.

Is tokenbb using some kind of database in conjunction with the blockchain ? It should be necessary for users' profile informations, read/unread informations couldn't be stored in it ? (just asking, I'm not a developer, so I don't know the limits of these kind of systems).

Topic: RC issues
Just a word about new users, who would register on Steem to be able to participate into a forum.
If we (long date members) are aware of RC's management things, new users may not know about it at first glance.
I suggest a gauge under the user name in the header of the forum, and/or a warning when a users posts a message and is getting low in RC's.
That way, he will understand the anti-spam aspect of this feature and will be able to properly manage his RC's for the first times.

I'm pretty sure it's already in the todo list, but just in case, a report button, not to flag and downvote, but to report a post to the moderation team.

Topic: Make the Steem Reward amount clickable.
I recommend that you make the actual amount of each Steem Reward clickable, so that users can view who upvoted a particular post, but I'd recommend against changing the appearance of the numbers (aside from adding a $ sign). I think it would add too much if you underlined it, or made the numbers bold. It's good enough for people to just stumble upon being able to discover who upvoted what without making the Reward amount over-complicated, or "too much". I really enjoy seeing who upvoted what on Steem-based Dapps and personally get discouraged, and in a significant way, when it is hard or impossible to see who voted what.

The reason for this is to create a dynamic feel. That things are happening. Someone might pick up a comment that they have something to say on, on a thread they wouldnt visit otherwise. (which leads to more engagement, forum owners are happy. etc.)

We are planning a forum explorer, but that will come a bit later. I do think we should have a dropdown for associated forums that the owner wants to associate with.
I'm not too mad about this cause that starts going into steemit.com trending territory and opens up to bots, but if it was ever offered then yes by admin enablement only. This is dangerous to start though.
Yes i love the live feed, could be like a twitter feed widget style.

Topic: Place a $ sign in front of the Steem rewards
One of the greatest appeals of forums Powered by TokenBB (in relation to standard forums) is the ability to earn by foruming. Because of it's attractive nature, I recommend that you place a $ sign in front of the Steem rewards for each topic, and each post. Otherwise, some people (new to Steem) may not even know it's points, rewards or anything like that. As it stands now, it just looks like random numbers in the corner of the posts (to non-Steemians). One of the beautiful things about TokenBB is that people can just forum, without having to sign-up for Steem or even wanting to earn. But for newcomers, it would still peak their interest if they saw $ signs on the side of each post, and it might keep an otherwise bounce on the Forum, long enough on the site to learn more more (ie they might eventually become an active user). That is why I think it's good to add $ signs in front of the Steem Rewards.

I think a dollar sign would be a good first stopgap, but we can see about having our own currency symbol later

Technically it isn't a dollar value it is a Steem STU value, so maybe another currency symbol or perhaps $ to start

I definitely think the $ symbol is the absolute best symbol to use. Throughout the world, the $ symbol is the most universal symbol for money, so if you want people to know that it is a real currency being earned.. and not just "Points".. use a $ symbol. People will eventually discover that it isn't $USD for themselves later on anyways.. just like I did. If you use any other symbol, you risk people thinking it is just fake money, monopoly money so to speak, or just points like Waze or Shopee Rewards. Remember, first impressions last and it is important for people to see that real money can be earned in the first few seconds they open the site - otherwise.. they may leave the site after a few seconds and never return. Using a $ sign will probably increase the stickiness of first time visitors and it would help me market my TokenBB forum.

Topic: Making the username clickable - Showing topic started by that [user]
Hey guys!
A feature that could really improve the usage of the website is to make usernames clickable and get a button "show topic started" - "show all posts". That way it will be really easy to read about things we care.
Another cool one is to add in the Account section a page called "my posts" or "my threads" to have them all gathered in a single place.

Topic: Beneficiary Reward Split Discussion
There will be a beneficiary reward for the forum owner and for tokenBB.What do you think are good values for these?
View this topic on TokenBB
Reply to Beneficiary Reward Split Discussion
Finally got around to playing with TokenBB for the first time and it's looking good so far! The payment tiers don't look at all unreasonable to me, but one thing I'd love to see is the possibility of these being automated or "earned." Not to compare the two projects, but that was one aspect ChainBB had developed that was interesting. Better revenue splits and tiers were automatically unlocked as the earnings flowing through your forum grew, and along with it the hosts/developers revenue.
With the structure of these plans, there are points at which the economics for the forum owner dictate a clear switchover. If my math is correct, the Basic plan should be purchased as soon as $180 USD a month of rewards are flowing through a forum's posts, Standard at $800, and Premium at $1600.
While owners can and should be incentivized to purchase premium packages to get quicker access to features that will help them customize and grow their forum faster, I think they could also earn these features by growing their volume alone.
It also makes it nice that forum owners don't have to worry about sending payments each month, nor do you have to worry about invoicing and collecting them, as long as their forum is sustaining suitable activity to keep them in the proper tier. The 180/800/1600 breakpoints above are the points where it is revenue neutral to TokenBB and fair to the consumers to simply grant them access to the upgraded features of the next plan level.
Hope that all makes sense and might be at least a bit of food for thought!

I also agree that TokenBB should always take at least some cut, and out of ALL TokenBB forums.
The Forums with the most traffic will likely opt for Premium accounts and a flat fee likely wouldn't be enough compensation from your top performing Forums in the future (80% of your money will probably come from 20% of your forums, but it will only be a decent amount of income if you take a %, not just small flat fees a.k.a. Pareto Principle).
It's better to always include a % of some kind. It's what Google Adsense uses and I think they use % for a reason. If they allowed flat fees that would undercut their revenenues they would likely be worth a lot less.

Ah, now there's a bug! It just allowed posting of an empty comment.
Back on topic, before deciding on a % worth looking at some of the mechanics of posting and commenting - this is from experience of using chainBB when it was monetised.
Do new posts only appear if posted via tokenbb?
Do comments made on other platforms appear within the forum?
So, all depends on how easy it is to bypass the beneficiaries, though I'd set it low to encourage use - chainBB used to be 15% which was a tad high and frustrated uptake.
Also, bizarrely, many people don't know what a forum is!! Honestly!
Great to see this revving up.

@bryan-imhoff thanks for your in depth thoughts on this, I am hover just thinking of some edge cases where a forum may be for a small community or used as a bug hunt forum like ours, which won't have massive revenue flow, but may still want all of the features, in such a case the owner can pay for the features at anytime instead of having to bring in earnings.
It is also like "the chicken and the egg", a forum needs good features such as more flexible beneficiary options to draw the crowd, and the plan model makes most sense for this. We live in an instant gratification society whereby users want to access features today and not wait to earn them.
Another consideration is what happens when the forum hits the target volume for the extra features, but later dies down in popularity, would they lose their extra features?

Standard pricing methods... Seems reasonable.
What you could maybe explore is ad revenue shares or what BAT is doing. Platform specific token rewards for thread/forum owners that opt for viewing ads on their forums.
I know that would be quite difficult to code.
Im not a fan of ads but there are ways to implement them that i dont mind in the slightest.

Simply put, I would like the form owner to be able to coustomize their own part, but up to a certian amount, maybe 10%. As for tokenbb's amount, it should be at max 5% and reevulated every 3 months or right after a HF depending on what happens sooner.

@rishi556 on all our paid plans we take 5% or 2.5%, or nothing if premium. Forum owner can customise own part up to 7.5% on standard plan, and unlimited customisation on Premium plan.
We can look at reviewing our % over time, for now we have no idea of what revenue will come in, it is easier to drop our % than increase it over time, so better to start higher otherwise trying to increase faces more pushback.
Everything is negotiable/reviewable over time.

I think it would be good to allow non-paying forum owners to take up to 10% of the rewards from their forum and offer even more flexibility for Premium forum owners, especially for unusual circumstances i.e. If someone commits 10,000,000 Steem Power to reward the users of a particular forum, there should be a limit no less than 75%. It would be a free market, and it may attract large investors and would likely reward users much more than setting the limit too low.
EXAMPLE:
If Premium forum owners set the beneficiary rewards too high, people will simply stop using their forums and will choose an alternative, especially since making an alternative of a TokenBB forum is a lot easier than making a Facebook alternative (the user data is public unlike Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, Quora etc.)
Allowing higher beneficiary rewards might help entrepreneurs and forum owners raise higher delegations for their users if they agree to funnel most of the profits from their forum to delegators... but you can charge different fees for different limits and on a sliding scale - 75% would be the most expensive and only accepted under extremely unusual circumstances and requires an official proposal, followed by 60%, 50%, 40%, 30%, 20% and then the free version of 10% and below.
I believe a cut of 35% of the 10%-Beneficiary-Rewards-Cut would be a good starting point for TokenBB to raise funds from forum owners, but this can also be decreased if someone makes a competing platforum for forums and offers a better deal.
The key is not to underprice your services in the beginning since cutting prices will always be popular, but increasing prices if you set it too low at first can leave a really bad taste in people's mouth.
I don't know how high I'll set Beneficiary rewards for my forums but it would help if you made it flexible, since I want to funnel most of the rewards to delegators who will in turn, reward my forum users much to their liking - My ultimate goal is to enable people to earn decently well, just through their contributions on DavaoCity.xyz and other sites and forums.
If the beneficiary reward cut is to low, like 2.5% or even 5% for forum owners, newcomers with little Steem Power (like me) will have a hard time attracting investors and may not even be able to reward their users at all. Please take that into account.
The lowest cut I think TokenBB should take is 2.5% of total rewards.

@lordbutterfly made some good comments in a post which I link here: https://steemit.com/tokenbb/@lordbutterfly/steem-forums-application-tokenbb-open-registrations
He feels beneficiary rewards deter usage, which is why I mentioned with our premium subscription beneficiary rewards can be tweaked or removed altogther.
He also thought that thread/topic creators would get a beneficiary share and that isn't actually a bad idea, we should consider a 3 way split between tokenbb/forum owner /thread creators which will hopefully stimulate activity and curation happening within each topic by the creator of the topic, this could be very healthy for engagement and content creation.

I absolutely agree premium features should be purchasable immediately @cryptodrive. It's a choice for the consumer and an upsell for TokenBB!
Under an automated system, if a forum were to fall below it's thresholds for a defined period, say 60 days, invoicing to pay direct to retain premium features could begin.
Even if it's not fully automated, I guess I'd advocate for admin tools that show and prompt when it's clearly time to upgrade a forum to the next level so that users don't end up overpaying. These kinds of progress bars and reporting also add a level of gamification that can help motivate forum admins to drive more traffic and build their forum level.
In running the numbers, I also feel like you may actually be undercharging a bit on the high end, depending on what infrastructure and service support you may need to run on TokenBB in the backend. For instance, $69 seems like a lot when an individual is paying it out of pocket, but when just $1600 of rewards flow a month makes that top tier economically feasible, that's really not a huge amount. I do think removing the TokenBB reward share completely should be at a higher point than that. Perhaps Premium could still carry a 1% share to TokenBB that caps at a certain USD amount at which point a forum becomes a business or enterprise level client.

Thanks for the extra expansion on this @bryan-imhoff, some of the ideas are good, especially carrying a nominal 1% tokenbb beneficiary into premium. and notifications if the forum isn't earning enough to maintain the extra features and needs to switch to paid plan.
imo it may be difficult to code this payment system at the start, but it could be something that evolves, maybe we revise pricing annually or so.

Topic: Create Wiki creation features for Paid Members
I have two domain names that match each other very well and I want to use one as a forum, and the other as a Steem-based Wiki.
Since I learn best and even clarify my ideas best through discussions and conversations, I'd like to discuss the specific topics of interest on the TokenBB forum I create, and then publish the final or semi-final conclusions on the matching domain name in the form of a Wiki.
I stopped using Quora some time ago but I noticed that they also started adding in Wikis. Adding in Wikis into social apps somehow might become more widespread someday - one.of the things that Wikipedia lacks is benefits like visibility for their contributors. This would bring two great tools together on the Steem blockchain, it would empower people and.some of the code might already have been done by @steempedia.com.
I haven't tested their code yet but supposedly it's open source. If it's work already and can be used please let me know. I didn't understand whether or not it is already a finished project.
P.S. It might be another worthy project for @buildteam if it is almost finished.

I think their project is pretty dead, last post was 4 months ago and their Discord is empty, so definitely a gap in the market there. Is on our roadmap now.

I saw the post @chrisrice but it is 4 months old and no updates, I think when they saw they only got $8 on the post they abandoned again. The github is there but only their old one, and is only the frontend, no backend engine. I suspect we would start from scratch anyway using TokenBB as a base to work from.
I don't want to derail TokenBB at the moment, I say we develop it as best as we can and then hand it over to our marketing team to spread it far and wide, at that point the devs can start a new project.

Good. I'm happy to hear that @buildteam will be pursuing this. If you're not aware, @steepshot also went offline a little bit ago and turned into a dead project as well.
The open source code for @steepshot is open source too, and I have a unique idea for their software that I think would also be worth pursuing.
I will ask you privately on Discord what the requirements are for creating a BuildTeam project. I am interested in being a part of something that I can continuously add ideas too and I have a domain name that would go perfect with @steepshot's Open Source software.

Around the time that they shelved the project they said they made their work "Open Source as promised" in a blog post on Steemit.
I will try to find that post and even if they deleted it, it should be available on the blockchain.
Is it possible to completely delete open source projects from GitHub or are they permanent too?

Build Team might be able to move first to contact them and partner with them if their code is good.
Once the market turns around which I think it is already doing now, they might transform from dormant to active and Build Team as a company might want to prepare themselves ahead of time and partner with them early on.
They supposedly have a Github but you'd have to check the code to see if it is good. I haven't personally checked it yet but I want to use a Steem-based Wiki for @humanism.
Let me know if you can find anything useful from them. I will text my friend soon to see if he saw my recent message about him working with you guys.

Topic: Show the $ Votes, even when not Logged-In
I noticed after the recent TokenBB ...update that the $ Votes were not visible and I actually thought the site was broken. So I stopped using the site for a bit and checked after a few hours.. after a few hours the votes on the right hand side .of Topics and Replies hadn't appeared yet.
That is when I clicked on the Hamburger Menu in the upper right hand side of my mobile to see if I could figure out what was wrong and as it turns out.. I was logged out.
I logged in and sure enough, the votes on the side of the Topics re-appeared.
Aside from some people thinking the site might be broken when they are logged out.. new users who are first time visitors will not immediately see the $ signs, so they'll not know from the start that TokenBB is different from other websites and forums (users get paid for contributions).
I recommend that you make the $ signs and votes visible, even for people who are visiting for the first time and in the first few seconds. It will be a free marketing tool and forum owner will not need to market their sites as websites that compensates users, people will discover it themselves and instantly in some cases.
This would prevent people from falling into the "too good to be true" ideology and would make it much easier to attract active members and new sign-ups IMO.

@chrisrice the Custom domain feature is tricky because we need to find a work around to each custom domain being able to be used without implicitly having to trust it with our sign on app. Should have a solution during March but not immediate, for the the tokenbb subdomains work.
SSL should be part of that too.
The $ signs when logged out has been a request from a few people, probably a good idea and not too had.

I purchased SSL from Uniregistry for $20.00 USD 3 to 4 days ago and have been in contact with them off and on but I'm being given the run-around about how to actually install it.
Please make it easy for Forum Owners to use custom domains with SSL and have FAQ and Q&A pages for people who hold their domains on popular sites like GoDaddy and Uniregistry.
Most of my domains are held at Uniregistry and I'm eager to promote DavaoCity.xyz but I cannot until it has SSL (Facebook and othet sites won't allow it).

Reply to Create SSL for Custom Domains
Technically, for us to be able to manage ssl on your domain you need to transfer ownership to us or point your dns to our location.
If uniregistry are incapable of setting basic ssl on their iframe server then that is nothing we can change, outside of our control.
If you want us to manage it you will have to pint your domain to our servers, pm me to set that up.

Topic: Create Standard Payment Methods for Creating Forums
I Power Up all of the Steem I earn and only purchase additional Steem off of the market on rare occasions.
Because of this, paying in Steem is inconvenient but I love the idea of people needing to have a Steem account in order to create a new Forum.
Maybe you can keep the 10 Steem payment requirement but find a way for people to pay in USD as long as they have a Steem account.
I am interested in paying the 10 Steem to create new forums but I'd be able to do it much sooner if I could pay with a Visa, Mastercard or PayPal.
If I could buy 10 Steem with a Visa, Mastercard or PayPal it would be even better!

I think this should be fixed since some people might want to view the Desktop version in Dark Mode on their mobile phones, and due to the forwarding I am using, my site DavaoCity.xyz is Desktop View and won't display the Mobile View.

Currently fourm.tokenbb is creating post forum by fourm. If you look at the above image, you will see it is more than 600 comments. It will grow more and more and can not read in a few more days. It is hard to find the comments you want in steemit. It will look like a garbage. In stead of posting like this it should change topic by topic. So we can easily find the comments we want and the structure will be very nice. It would need a lot of SP to post topic by topic. I hope you can handle it.

@mmunited this is intentional. Just don't view it on steemit.com or similar interfaces :D
The idea is that you can create a topic without it appearing in your steemit.com followers feed. And that requires it to be comments. We decided on one post per forum to have it grouped very simple.
If you have problems loading 600 comments then my suggestion is, don't. Our view in Steemit.com links link to one specific comment to reduce complexity and we link to tokenbb in gina and in all steem interfaces so that their interface does not have to die down because of comments.
And remember, if you reply from a random other interface, it will be ignored ;)

Topic: The Hamburger Menu Hides the Categories
When I open the Hamburger Menu in the upper right-hand-corner (Mobile View on Mobile) and then click on All Categories, the Categories drop-down-menu opens, but the Hamburger Menu fails to close (it remains open too). This leads to the Hamburger menu hiding the opened Categories drop-down-menu and it blocks the majority of the opened categories from view. In order to make the site more clean, and seamless, I recommend you implement some code to force the Hamburger Menu to close whenever you open the Categories drop-down-menu.

Isn't the New Topic, always the first post in every Topic? I think TokenBB is setup like tradition Forums, and I don't think it would be good for people to have to write a full blog post as a topic. But it would be good to have the word "New" highlighted somewhere for new posts, but it is only an idea. I also think the formating i.e. Bold, Italic, Underline, linebreaks, username tags, hyperlinks and embedsed images should work soon, they don't work yet.

Have you ever been active in traditional forums like TokenBb before?
Or is this your first time participating in a forum like this?

Yeah.. TokenBB is setup as an online forum, and it is much different than a blogging platform like Steemit.
The initial Topic being identical to the following posts, or at least close to identical is normal, but some forums display the word "New" in the overall feed when a post is a New Topic.
Other than that.. posts underneath a New Topic are identical to the initial topic, and hold just as much weight - Sometimes the posts in the middle of a topic even become more important than the Original Topic.

Topic: Fix the Upvote Slider
When I click the upvote button on a Topic or on a reply, it automatically upvotes at 10% strength by default.
I think that is a mistake and I recommend you make the default upvote strength 100% with one click @thecryptodrive @reggaemuffin @cryptoctopus
Then, if someone wants to vote less then 100% they can long press on the upvote button and adjust the slider then click on the upvote button on the popup to confirm their desired amount.
Another way to fix this would be to make it impossible to upvote with one click and require everyone to use the slider and confirm the upvote in the popup instead.
I am having issues since my upvote at 10% strength is only worth $0.002 and the threshold for payments is $0.02.
I want to upvote as many people as I can on Humanist.xyz but if it votes at 10% it doesn't even let me take the vote back and upvote at 100%.. on Steemit it's possible to change an upvote we make, but if you clear the issue and make the default upvote 100% or require a confirmation in the pop-up with the slider, it would solve both issues.
Another option is to let users take back their upvote but that might make the UI more complex and it seems like simple and basic is sometimes a better approach:
Example:
Facebook beat Myspace by offering a simpler interface.. at least that us my theory.
View this topic on TokenBB
Reply to Fix the Upvote Slider
Good point! We might also want to allow flags and everything.
But there is a discussion to be had about simplifying the current interface, basically just allowing one vote and done. We have to think about users coming from facebook who don't care about percentages and stuff like that. So it might bake sense to have the upvote button be locked at 100% for new users and then in your user settings you can enable advanced mode with percentage, unvotes and maybe downvotes.
View the topic on TokenBB
Yes.. that would be best @reggaemuffin. I believe Facebook beat Myspace due to the simplicity of Facebook 👍

Topic: The latest post on this Test site shows the wrong Reward amount.
The latest post on this test site often shows a reward of about $2.60, but if you click on the actual post.. it will show that the post only has about $0.14 or so in rewards.

The reward is for the topic itself not for the last reply. That should be consistent

Reply to The latest post on this Test site shows the wrong Reward amount.
The calculation is still wrong sometimes.. I cannot post images so I cannot give you a screenshot, but this "Topic" as an example, showed $0.00 Rewards, but once I opened it.. I can see that you already earned $0.261, so I think it should reflect in the entire Topic. I also noticed the original error I posted in this report, and it was for topics that didn't accumulate that much in rewards. But I'll double check. It's a shame that I cannot post screenshots.

Sorry if I'm bumping this thread a bit late, but it seemed a similar issue for me.
I had a difficult time with my first login. Keychain and Steemconnect both failed to work in the Brave browser, Steemconnect failed in Safari, but I was finally able to login with Steemconnect in Firefox. So I'm wondering if there may be browser compatibility bugs at the moment. All this is on Mac OS 10.14.3
Just my observations, thanks much for the hard work!

It was just prior to my first comment @cryptodrive, so less than 2 hours ago and I'd not visited the site prior to have a preloaded version. I certainly had other tabs open but doubt that would be a factor. In the other browsers the SteemConnect or Keychain windows would seemingly function just fine but fail to show any change on the site, either through the top "Connect" button, or the bottom "Login to Reply" button.

Topic: Select categories in Category Drop-down-menu get blacked out.
While using an iPhone, the Categories that I hover on, in the Categories Drop-down-menu, get completely blacked out. I recommend that you change the Hover-on-text-color to white, from the color black, so that the letters & words that make up that Categories are visible while the Hover-On-Highlighter. I think this is actually a bug that nobody noticed but I'm not sure if it falls under bug or "suggestion" instead.

When I visit https://davaocity.tokenbb.io/ on an iPhone, and click on the Categories-drop-down-menu to select a category, the "All Categories" category is partially cut off (Mobile View). But on test.tokenbb.io, the categories appear perfect, including the "All Categories" category, when the drop-down-menu is opened.

Reply to Forums by Users cuts off a portion of the Categories-Drop-Down-Menu
I noticed that this happens on DavaoCity.tokenbb.io and I think it's because I have a lot of categories, and the grey header with the home button (logo) blocks some of the upper categories. If you can make the grey header with the Home button and hamburger menu in the upper right side, disappear when the drop down menu is opened, I think it will display the categories properly, even when people include a long list of categories.

Even when we use the markdown, the link publishes as black text in the actual post @thecryptodrive.
It indicates in the Preview that it will publish the hyperlink as blue, but once you submit your post or reply.. it publishes as black, not blue.
Please update the hyperlink font color so that the text is blue, not black. This will ensure that people can easily distinguish hyperlinks from regular text.

Facebook kind of has it's own browser nowadays, and when a person shares a link via Facebook messenger, the link will load inside Facebook as opposed to inside Google chrome directly.
