In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] Update Manually the pluginI do not know why you are getting this error. It could be some security plugin that you have installed.
In any case, simply go to download the zip file from https://downloads.wp.xz.cn/plugin/wallets.2.4.2.zip . Extract the zip file somewhere and you will get a directory named
wallets. Then, using FTP, navigate to your online WordPress directory and go towp-content/plugins. This is where you copy the entirewalletsdirectory. This should overwrite your existingwalletsdirectory on the server. Make sure that your FTP user has permissions to do this or it will not work.You really shouldn’t have any problem doing this but let me know how it went.

In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] Update Manually the pluginIf I remember correctly you have a network-activated installation of Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets? In that case you need to go to your network admin screens with a superadmin account and navigate to the plugins and update from there. Updating from within individual sites will not work and in fact will not show up as an option.

In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] Update Manually the pluginHello,
Yes you can simply overwrite the plugin’s files via FTP manually.
However the automatic update from ww.wp.xz.cn should also work, I checked it again and it works for me.
Can you tell me why you cannot update? What do you see on your screen?

In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] Connection RefusedThank you.

In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] Connection RefusedHello,
OK what you are telling me is that there is no issue with the firewall. I assume you tried running the telnet command from the same machine that runs WordPress?
Before the coin adapter was failing with “Connection refused”.
Now you’re getting “403 – Forbidden”. This is progress, which means you must have done something right in the meantime!
Normally 403 means that you have not setup
rpcallowip=correctly to match the IP of your webserver. If you had set the wrong username/password you would be getting “401 – Unauthorized”.Can you email me your conf file to [email protected]? You can leave out the
rpcuser=andrpcpassword=lines.regards,

In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] Connection RefusedHi,
It is not just a matter of checking whether the port is open. You need to check if the port is open from the WordPress server. The
bitcoin.conflinerpcallowip=YOUR_WORDPRESS_IPmeans that the bitcoin daemon will only accept connections from that IP. This is essential for security.
My first thought would be to
sshto the WordPress machine and dotelnet YOUR_BITCOIN_SERVER_IP 8332. This will probably fail for the same reason that the plugin fails to connect.My best guess is that you have not opened up 8332 in your firewall. I do not know what firewall you have installed on your VPS, if any. You, or whoever is administering the server, should know this. Find this out first, and then look for how to open up a TCP port on that firewall. http://serverfault.com is your friend. For example, if you find out that you are using Unobtrusive Firewall, then it would be a matter of doing something like:
sudo ufw allow 8333/tcpDon’t forget to restart your firewall after that.
Another possibility might be that your hosting provider is blocking that port, so check with them, too.

In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] Connection RefusedHi, can you check that the bitcoin port is open and accessible from where you have your WordPress running? Try connecting with
bitcoin-clior even just do a telnet from your WordPress machine to your bitcoin machine on port 8332. Check to see that you have the correctrpcallowipsetting.rpcallowipshould point to the ip of your wordpress.Are you running
bitcoindon a machine accessible from your WordPress machine? It could also be a firewall issue. Check what firewall you’re using on your webhost and open up the port.I can’t really help you with your networking issue, this is a matter of setting up TCP connectivity, so you might be better off asking your hosting provider.
Let me know if you have any issues with using the plugin though.
Hello,
I’m afraid I don’t know the specifics of CentOS. This support forum is for issues and feedback regarding the WordPress plugin.
If I were you I would start from https://bitcoin.org/en/full-node#other-linux-distributions and would follow the links. You might be able to get a better answer at http://bitcointalk.org or http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com
Sorry for not being of more help.
I will now close this thread as I don’t think I am in a position to help you any more with this.
good luck

In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] balance 0 coinpayments adapter LiteCoin TestNETThe installation instructions are at https://www.dashed-slug.net/bitcoin-altcoin-wallets-wordpress-plugin/coinpayments-adapter-extension/
Like you said, the problem is that you are not using port 80. I had encountered the same issue myself while developing the plugin extension, and I had to use port 80 to make it work. I believe it is a limitation of the platform.

In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] balance 0 coinpayments adapter LiteCoin TestNETHello,
This support area is for the main plugin.
The support area for the CoinPayments adapter is at https://www.dashed-slug.net/forums/forum/coinpayments-net-coin-adapter-extension-support/
Having said this, please check first that you are using the latest version 2.3.4 of Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets because there was an issue with balances on 2.3.0. Also, the callback addresses offered by the CoinPayments service require your server to be facing the internet. If you’re on a local machine behind a firewall, it will not work.
Start by making sure that you have followed the instructions and that you have entered the IPN settings correctly, then look at your IPN logs on the CoinPayments site. That should give you an indication as to what is going on. If you still cannot figure out what is wrong please continue the discussion at the support forum for the plugin extension.
Thanks and regards,

In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] Work with many AltcoinsThank you for your kind words.
Indeed, the strength of this plugin is that it decouples coin interfaces from useful features/functionality.
By the way, I have not forgotten about the eMark, it’s just that currently I’m in the middle of some bugfixing that has to take priority.

In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] Ethereum availabilityDue to technical issues I had to remove Ethereum from this extension.
You can read more about this here:
https://www.dashed-slug.net/updated-list-coins-available-coinpayments-adapter/I am therefore marking your request as unresolved again. When I get around to developing an Ethereum adapter I will notify you on this thread.

In reply to: [SVG Logo and Text Effects] Not responsiveHello,
First of all I’m sorry that you didn’t find the plugin useful and I welcome your criticism. Admittedly you could argue that the plugin is somewhat hard to use and if I began from scratch I would have made the plugin a lot different.
It’s good that you were able to determine that this plugin is not for you before paying for the premium features.
Having said this, I want to point out a couple of factual inaccuracies in your review that may be of benefit to other potential users:
– Cryptocurrencies are not offered as a payment option. Currently PayPal is the only payment method available, if you wanted to gain access to the premium features. In fact this is a shortcoming of the service that I would like to remedy in the future, but currently you cannot pay with cryptocurrencies. A user who wanted to become a premium member would hit the button titled “Become premium dashed-slug member” available at the homepage. You might have been confused by the fact that the site also offers cryptocurrency-related plugins, however this has nothing to do with the payment options available to a prospective member.
– Besides the accompanying PDF documentation, if you wish you can have a look at examples of how to use the plugin here https://www.dashed-slug.net/svg-logo-and-text-effects-wordpress-plugin/svg-shortcode-examples/
– The text is able to be edited in a popup editor via the Visual Composer extension, which is available to premium members. Anything that you can do manually in the free version via shortcodes, you can do much easier via a UI using Visual Composer plus this extension. You can have a look here to see what that would look like: https://www.dashed-slug.net/svg-logo-and-text-effects-wordpress-plugin/visual-composer-integration-extension/
Again, I’m not trying to argue that you should definitely buy the premium extensions and I do not want to argue against your criticism, I’m just pointing out these facts. Thanks for taking the time to review and sorry for having wasted your time.
regards,
