RE: Hive-Nectar v0.0.11: A Small But Necessary Patch

in Synergy Builderslast month

I had no idea that there was a difference between older and newer communities. That's so curious and interesting. Can the older communities be updated in some way, or is it just a thing that can't be changed, and must be accepted as is? Congratulations on the fix, by the way! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

They could, they would just need to change the frontend. Right now they just append {"community": "old_community"} the json_metadata field of the post. Whereas the newer communities, e.g. all the ones with hive-XXXXXX in the name, set the community by using that community as the parent_author but leaving parent_permlink blank (or else it's a comment). Which to be honest doesn't seem as intuitive, but makes sense as the newer communities are accounts that have membership fields and roles etc.

Oh, OK, I'm glad that they can be updated. That's fascinating, and it helps me understand new aspects of Hive, so thank you for that explanation. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
