Integration of Steemit More Info features #5: Mentions Tab

One of the most interesting features form Steemit More Info has been fixed and included into SteemPlus: The Mentions Tab!

Want to know who mentioned your username in either a post or a comment? You will now be able to do that directly from your Steemit interface!

New Features

• Adding Mentions Tab to the user profile:

• Using the new SteemData API for gathering data the mentions data. Big thanks to @furion for this awesome API!

• New regex to fetch images out of the post's metadata.

• Possibility to see mentions from posts, comments or both.

Problems encountered:

• The API was returning an error and was causing the mention Tab to load forever:

It was due to some changes in the API. Basically, it went to api.steemdata.com to query.steemdata.com and I couldn't find mention of it anywhere until I directly contacted @furion on one of his posts to get this answer. He also told me that he will implement backwards compatibility in the future.

• Some posts and most of comments do not contain any image, and it was displayed by a bleak gray area. We ve changed it to placeholders to fix this issue. I will ask some designers to help me design a better one in the future.

Coming soon

• All Steemit More Info features will be fixed an included in here.
• Next ones will be the voting slider and downvote slider value information
• Let me know what you want to see next
• These will be available in the Chrome Store only when all features are ready

Hope this helps!

@stoodkev and @cedricguillas for @steem-plus
