The suggestion

Steemit.com shows payout for each post. When a post is paid, Steemit.com shows the past payout. However, when a paid post has beneficiaries, the payouts showed by Steemit.com doesn't include the rewards to the beneficiaries.

The suggestion is: Steemit.com also need to show the rewards to the beneficiaries.

Payout information

Steemit.com shows payout information for all the post, as shown in the following screenshot. The payout information of each post are highlighted with red boxes:

Click the triangle after the value of the post, it shows more details. For the unpaid post, it shows the total value and when will it be paid:

For the post that are paid, it shows total payout, author reward, and curator reward

Beneficiaries

For the post at Steem, beneficiaries can be assigned. The beneficiaries will share the reward with the author.

The following is a screenshot of steemd for a post that has beneficiaries:

Past payout for post with beneficiaries

For a post with beneficiaries, when it's paid out, Steemit.com only shows the rewards to the author and the reward to the curator. It does not show the rewards to the beneficiaries as shown in the following screenshot

There are two issues with this:

1. The total payout is not correct, because it failed to include the rewards to beneficiaries
2. Readers will not know how much rewards paid to the beneficiaries

Suggest to add the rewards to beneficiaries

The suggestion is, after the post is paid,

1. Also shows how much is paid to the beneficiaries
2. The total pay out should also include the rewards to beneficiaries

For example, if curator reward is $25, author reward is $60, beneficiaries' reward is $15. Currently, Steemit.com shows

Past payout $85
  - Author $65
  - Curator $25

We suggest to show the payout as following:

Past payout $100
  - Author $65
  - Curator $25
  - Beneficiary $15
