They're gone. The "Post Rewards Options and "Upvote Post" checkbox have disappeared from the "Create a Post" screen (https://steemit.com/submit.html).

Where did they go???
If you're looking for the reward payout options, you need to go to the "settings" screen and set them as default options.

I'm not sure that's a great idea. You may want to decline payout for just one post, or power up 100% (yeah I know... not right now!!) for a while. If you set it and then forget, your next few posts may not be at the option you want them to be, because you can't see what it is set to, and may have forgotten to change it back.
There they are!!

How about some improvements?
While you're in the settings screen, you can also set your comment rewards options. I wouldn't mind seeing an option for post reward distribution in there somewhere, like giving 10% to a specific account you're supporting, or 100% for that matter. That would make supporting a community charity drive so much easier, by the post rewards automatically being sent to the account. Perhaps a list of beneficiaries with percentage of reward like this:
Benficiary: | %SBD | %SP |
---|---|---|
@bmj | 25 | 50 |
@springbokkie | 50 | 50 |
@stsl | 25 | 0 |
Total | 100% | 100% |
Author Receives: | 0% SBD | 0% SP |
There is no longer an "Upvote post" default checkbox. I think that's great! Now you have to go back to you Blog feed, and manually upvote it if you want to. Self-upvoting now requires extra work with the ability to upvote your own post every time by default having been removed. You have to make the conscious decision to go to you blog list and upvote your post manually. I like that. I like it a lot!!
I definitely like that the upvote post option is gone, but would like to see the post rewards option improved, and returned back to the post editor screen.




whoa thank you for explaining it to me @bmj, i got used to the option and was surprised to see them gone...
but thx to you i can find it

Thanks @bmj! Just noticed the change and saw your message on discord about this and followed your link here..resteemed!! 😊
You were first in my feed...thanks for the update info
Have a wonderful day!
I haven't noticed the change yet, guess I'll check it out later if I post? Thx for the info!
Thx interesting it's been removed but good changes for sure.
Thank you @bmj for this information!
oh. This means if we want a certain settings for a post we got to set it at settings first before making a post.
I can see the good and bad, but probably a lot of people are really accustomed to 50-50 these days?
i also agree with the disable auto self upvote. It is a bad habit and more fun to see other people upvotes first and maybe self upvote later when it seems no value.
And leave the VP for others first.
Thank you so much for the heads up. I have resteemed this for others to view.
Thanks for the info. I agree with you that self upvote should have disappeared.
Reblogged to get the word out @bmj
I noticed that too!
