I m trying to use ERC20Upgradeable.sol to create a basic token with name symbol and initial supply … am not sure how to go about defining it in the initializer so the name and symbol can be shown and total supply to show the initial supply… just a small example would be fine for me to understand… By…

Hi @Nadim , Welcome to the community :wave: I recommend using OpenZeppelin Upgrades Plugins for Truffle and Hardhat if you want to deploy and test upgradeable contracts: https://docs.openzeppelin.com/upgrades-plugins/1.x/ There isn’t an Upgrades Plugin for Remix, so you would need to deploy the im…

Thanks … that solved my purpose as was banging my head on using remix …

Everything works as needed just followed the above procedure but when I run this (await token.balanceOf(accounts[0])).toString() … the value returned is always 0… any ideas why is it so?

Hi @Nadim , When we run migrate it should be deploying from accounts[0] which is then minted the total supply. What do you get when you run (await token.balanceOf(accounts[0])).toString()? If you close Truffle development console, you will need to migrate again when you start Truffle development c…

Hi @Nadim , Does that mean you have resolved it? Otherwise feel free to share your contract and migration script and I can try it out.

yes have solved it … was my mistake putting 10 ** uint256(decimals()) in contract and also passing the value through truffle… i removed the one from the contract and just passed the value through truffle and it all was set
