New feature: Mass User Upvote & Bug Fix

New Features

• Added A Mass User Upvote Feature
  This feature helps the curator to see all user's post remotely. It also helps the curator to set a pre-determined upvote percentage and comment for all the upvote or curation he is going to do. The curator can also see a preview of the user's post without having to visit the user's blog, all this can be done from the web app.Most pre-determined details are saved as cookies to help with easy and smart retrieval and smart use when the curators wants to curate again.

Bug Removal

I have also worked a bit on how to display the error sent by steemjs in the front end

How did you implement it/them?

• To add the user Mass Upvote feature, I had to connect to the blockchain using steemjs url api , while setting a form where the curator specifies the user he/she wishes to curate, including the upvote ratio and the custom comment to use, then the curator is taken to a page featuring all user's post, including a preview section where the user's post is passed using a php markdown-to-html parsing library. Then the curator can then upvote each post without having to visit the user's blogpage. This is to add a sense of flexibility to the curation process.

• The steemjs api error could only be viewed via the console log, this time around I saved the error via javascript cookie and then 're-echoed' the cookie as a error or result when the upvoting is done using php variable $_COOKIE variable
