Hive Tour
It's no secret that onboarding users is one of the keys to Hive's success. But newcomers can feel a bit lost at the beginning of their journey.
We thought a step-by-step tour of the Hive ecosystem was needed to show new users each feature, and familiarize them with the way our blockchain operates in a more interactive fashion.
This is why we've put together a new feature on our HiveBuzz site, to guide them in a fun and helpful way.
The Hive Tour is accessible on your board at https://hivebuzz.me
How is the tour organized?
On the left side, you have a tree with all the "Stages" and "Steps" to be completed.
On the right side, there is a panel with the description of the item you've selected.
Note: If you are on mobile, click on the small question mark that appears next to each item and a popup with the description will be displayed.
Stages are a group of steps
In this example, this stage contains 3 steps, and none of them have been completed.
A step can be either:
active, meaning you can accomplish it whenever you want
locked, because you need to accomplish other stages before
In the above screenshot, the first one is activated and waiting for you to be completed. The second one is locked because you have to complete the previous one before it can be accessed. Same for the third one, which requires the two previous stages to be completed.
Each completed step will appear green and checked. When the whole stage is completed, it will turn green as well.
If a stage is partially completed, it will show you how many steps are left undone
NOTE: HiveBuzz doesn't process achievements in real-time. It does its work of collecting data and updating your steps and stages every hour. This should not prevent you from continuing to interact with the blockchain and complete other pending steps.
Available tour stages
We've released social stages first, designed to get you acquainted with your profile and the community.
Each step will help you set up your Hive profile, connect with the community, and understand the basics of the social aspects of the Hive ecosystem.
Here's the list of stages that we are releasing today:
Configuring your profile
Introducing yourself
Engaging with people 3.1 Curation 3.2 Having a productive conversation 3.3 Reblogs 3.4 Following and Followers
What if you're an established Hive member?
Of course, with this new feature, the focus is put on people unfamiliar with our ecosystem. If you are a long-time Hive user, chances are your tour is all green at the moment.
However be sure to check out our upcoming releases, as we may add things you don't know about Hive or features you've never used before.
