SteemPlus is now fully integrated with SteemConnect and do not require any private WIFs anymore. No reason to live without it ;)
For those who do not know about SteemPlus, it's a lightweight Chrome/Opera/Firefox extension that empowers you to make the most of the blockchain by adding features to Steemit and Busy. It is totally compatible with Steemit More Info and you can find the information to install it on Chrome, Firefox and Opera at the bottom of this post.
You can find the main commit here.
Overview of features
Available on Steemit and Busy
- Voting slider for minnows (you do not need to vote at 100% anymore!)
- True value of your account on your wallet (calculated with current SBD and STEEM market prices)
- Delegation button in your wallet (with list of delegatees and undelegate button)
- One click switch between Steemit and Busy (Shift+Alt+B) and Steemit and Steemd (Ctrl+Alt+D)
Available on Steemit (and mspsteem)
- Feed+ : Filter your feed by tags, resteems (hide, show, blacklist, whitelist), reputation and sort it by upvotes/date/payout
- STEEM/USD and SBD/USD values in the user dropdown
- Option to add beneficiaries to your post (you can say that 10% of your post payout will go to one of your friends for example)
- Cool badges on user profiles show their rank: Plankton, Minnow, Dolphin, Orca and Whales
Detailed features
Login via SteemConnect
Before accessing the SteemPlus features, you first need to connect using SteemConnect v2. SteemConnect is very safe and is the standard way to give access to Steem Apps.
Simply click the gray SteemPlus logo and it will start the login via SteemConnect. Follow the instructions and add your private key. Once done you will be redirect to the page you were before and see that the SteemPlus logo has turned blue:
Congratulations! You now have access to all the features!
Dropdown
Adding two new functions to the user dropdown on Steemit:
- Direct access to Market
- Base price from the blockchain
- STEEM/USD price (Coinmarket API)
- SBD/USD price (Cryptonator API)
One click switch
Pass from a page on Steemit to the exact same page on Busy with (Shift+Alt+B), or from Busy to Steemit with the same shortcut.
Between Steemit and Steemd, use (Shift+Alt+D).
Voting slider for Minnows
To access the voting slider, click on the popup and go to Upvote tab, make sure the url corresponds to what you want to upvote and click Upvote. For a comment, first click on the date to change the URL.
From the same popup you can also access the options to turn on and off the features.
True account value
On both Steemit and Busy, you can check the true value of your account (based on current value of SBD and Steem rather than an average).
Delegation button
You can find the delegation button in both Steemit and Busy wallets:
Simply fill the form and you will be redirected via SteemConnect to confirm. Note that you can undelegate directly from there and see who are your delegatees. If you undelegate, you won't be able to use your previously delegated SP during 7 days.
Beneficiaries
On Steemit you can now add beneficiaries to your posts and decide which percentage of your post they will receive.
Note the following:
- Beneficiaries rewards will be perceived on SP only
- @steem-plus will get a 5% reward
- You cannot exceed 100% obviously
- You cannot exceed 6 beneficiaries
Badges
Wanna see what your Steem rank is, as well as others ? The badges are here for you!
FeedPlus
I kept the best for the end!
Filter and sort your feed at will with Feed+

Shouldn't I be concerned that a 3rd party app, no matter much people say is secure, is asking me to provide my private key?
As I said, it is developed by Steemit and Busy, and they worked a lot to make it even safer than v1
If you don't use SteemConnect you cannot use any of the many tools that are emerging around the blockchain.
True !
Amazeballs update!
Looks dope, especially that shuriken style logo, I LOVE IT! <3 <3 <3
Glad to hear that! =D
Please help me share the love!
Definitely bro! Resteemed for maximum effect! :)
You rock!
Nice work @stoodkev!!!
(Very cool v2 functionality, code rewrites, and a well-written article as well!)

Thanks, and new updates will keep coming =)
steem plus freaking rules. The delegation tool alone is so useful, not enough people know about it!
Thanks man! I really tried to take the word out this time, hope more people will get to know it!
Is @steem-plus always a beneficiary or is this optional?
It s not optional, but you could still write a script to remove it if you think SteemPlus don t deserve this small reward ;p
Thanks! I'll have to try it out! Have you seen my idea for improving the feed? I am trying to code it myself but I am very new to programming. https://busy.org/curation/@littlejoeward/a-new-feed-using-upvotes-from-the-people-you-follow-improving-content-discovery
I would love your thoughts on it if you have the time!
Sure I think the idea is great! My only concern is about the processing time, it seems to me like the number of operations would be very high especially when you follow hundreds. Anyways, we can talk more about it in here of on Discord. If you manage to make it work without being too slow, I ll think of a way to integrate it to SteemPlus.
I havent installed steemplus yet, but from what i have seen, It looks like the best addon i have seen so far.
One question: is It possible to use the steemplus to add a layer that translate the menus?
I am asking this because i dont see the base platform being translated to portuguese soon, and there is a lot of portuguese speakers coming to steemit, and i think would be Nice to have as Portuguese interface for them. And i would happly do the translation.
I will look into it! That would be great to add the missing languages!
Wow, I really love this I’m going to add this tomorrow morning. Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks a lot! That would mean the world to me if you could help me share this!
No problem i just resteemed it :0) have a nice day.
Wahou ! It's a very good update ! Thank you very much ;-) !
I use your extension everyday !

Glad you like it!
Wow!
This is amazing.
Steemit is taking over social media this year.
Hell yea!
This sounds AwEsOmE! I'll be checkin' it out as well! I truly am amazed at the number of people who are here doing this type of work for the platform! You guys rock! I can't thank you and others like you enough! So THANK YOU! :)
My pleasure ;)
Awesome update! I'm a big fan of this plug-in. I'm not a coder myself, but I'd love to contribute. Could I help with a Dutch translation of the plug-in, for example?
Yes sure!
Awesome! Could I get in touch with you on Discord? I sent you a friend request. My username is 'superjona' over there, but I have the same avatar as here.
what a update!!
please carry on
will do!
WOW, this is an amazing update.
Excelent!
I just came to know about this. Cool extension with great features.
Thanks!
Wow, this will help a lot to minnows, to vote in percentage and engage with more people.
If you think so please help me share the word =D
Sure, why not, upvoted and resteemed as well. We have a charity bot @thehumanbot, will ask @sanmi to resteem there as well. Happy Steem Year.
Awesome, you rock!
Pretty much everything I was Hopi g would get added! This is going to help many of the new people I plan to bring to Steemit real soon. Thanks!
Yes, it will be pretty handy for minnows =)
Looks like Im installing another extension.
Thank you.
Thanks!
are we living in the future or naw?
In the future :D
Wow, that's cooll
Woow amazing, I like your post..😊
The feed plus is now gone in busy? After authorizing the logo turns blue, but when I click it, it just brings me to my normal feed and then turns grey again. After clicking again, it brings me to your profile page turning blue again. I´m using Opera.
Feed+ is not currently available on Busy as it slows it down a lot. Connecting to SteemConnect on Busy only brings you the real account value and the delegation button
Ok, understood - thank you!
thanks for sharing dear I love this keep it up I follow you and upvote you hope you also do
nice up to date
carry on friend
Thank you for the information.
Great work! Thanks for making our experience with Steem better.
Does this require the active key, or can you get by with the posting key?
It uses SteemConnect, that can work with owner or active key but is developed and maintained by Steemit and Busy, so there is no risk, I never access the keys directly.
Wow! This is so good. I'm going to add this first thing in the morning. Thank you so much for the effort and for sharing this! ❤❤❤
I'm using the Chrome app and I cant connect today. It's telling me to connect via Steem Connect but I don't see that option at SteemConnect.com.
I ll change the phrasing, it might be a bit confusing. Simply go to Steemit and click on the SteemPlus icon it will redirect you to the SteemConnect login
Thank you! I was connected the first day I downloaded it but since yesterday I can't connect.
When I click on the Steemit plus icon at the top nest to the 'post' button, it takes me to the Steemit plus blog page.
