 * **configuration:**
 * I am using wordpress 4.4.1 with WooCommerce 2.5.1
 * there are some additional plugins:
    - WooCommerce Custom Product Tabs Lite: 1.4.0
    - WooCommerce Multilingual: 3.7.9
    - WooCommerce Pretty Emails: 1.5.5
 * There are some other plugins non-WooCommerce related
 * **Issue:**
 * Installation following the instructions goes ok.
    but activating gives the following
   error:
 * `The plugin generated 188 characters of unexpected output during activation. 
   If you notice “headers already sent” messages, problems with syndication feeds
   or other issues, try deactivating or removing this plugin.`
 * Then when going on the WooCommerce admin or on the checkout page of the site,
   there is the following error:
 *     ```
       Notice: Undefined index: title in /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/bitcoin-payments-for-woocommerce/bwwc-bitcoin-gateway.php on line 55
   
       Notice: Undefined index: bitcoin_addr_merchant in /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/bitcoin-payments-for-woocommerce/bwwc-bitcoin-gateway.php on line 57
   
       Notice: Undefined index: description in /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/bitcoin-payments-for-woocommerce/bwwc-bitcoin-gateway.php on line 60
   
       Notice: Undefined index: instructions in /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/bitcoin-payments-for-woocommerce/bwwc-bitcoin-gateway.php on line 61
       ```
   
 * it seems, the plugin cannot load init_settings();
 * of course I am limited in logs access…
 * I was able to add the electrum xpub, and it gave me a green `Bitcoin payment 
   gateway is operational`.
 * did any of you get this issue already?

 * After some mysql digging, and using the WP debug tool, it seems that the options
   table was not populated with the bitcoin plugin.
 * The query that is failing:
 * `SELECT option_value FROM mysite_options WHERE option_name = 'woocommerce_bitcoin_settings'
   LIMIT 1`
 * It seems also that this issue is related [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/the-gateway-name-is-no-title-in-checkout-tab-i-cannot-enable-it?replies=5](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/the-gateway-name-is-no-title-in-checkout-tab-i-cannot-enable-it?replies=5)

 * Warning: this is not an approved fix. Use at own risk.
 * if it does not work, you can deactivate, delete and reinstall the plugin to get
   a fresh official version
