RE: Updated Steeminvite to work with the new account creation system

in #steeminvite6 years ago

The backend doesn't do much besides sending the email and keeping track of the invites in a database. After the expiration time invites are deleted, that's when your token becomes "free" for another invite. Obviously a delete button would be handy and will be implemented at some point. Limiting invites to the amount of available claim tokens is a design decision, the tokens aren't anywhere really.
Delegation can fail in the end when you're powering down, delegating, and/or low on VP. Another possible feature, calculate if it's actually possible ;)

Sort:  

When the delegation option is used, is the action “pre-signed” by the inviter, so that it’s immediately available, or are you simply prompted to set it up manually following an invite acceptance?

Are the links unique in any way or are they the same & just funneling to the token balance of the inviting account? Just thinking how this could work with printed matter like handing someone a card with a short link or QR code... (obviously only handing out in batches small enough to fulfill!)

Thanks for taking the time to answer and clarify for me! I’m enthused I’m able to claim tokens, and brainstorming how to best handle potentially distributing them to friends or more widely at events & promotions.

You get an email to the address you specified at the end of the form and need to create with your active key then. Pre-signing isn't possible because username and keys aren't known yet, and I certainly won't store your active key.

Links contain a unique id. QR codes would expire after the validity you specified, but besides that it's possible.
