To write articles and interact with others on VePress, you need either Sync or Comet - a Connex compatible client.
Loggin in and out should be easy, but you need to be on the VeChainThor MAINNET. Those buttons are located in the top right corner.
Go to the article page and use the buttons on top.
You can create arbitrary topics to categorize and organize your articles. Topics will be shared with the entire community, but you can choose who can post on the topic when setting up.
Go to an article page and find the tip button located in the right bottom corner of the page. You can't tip your own articles but others'.

For the first version of our Campaign smart contract, the fund will be distributed to entered articles in proportion to the tips they received in VET during the campaign period.
For example, assume the campaign fund is 10000 VET, and there are 3 articles (A, B, C) entered in the campaign.
