In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets errorHello,
You are using windows? If you have your wallet on a PC connected to a residential DSL line, then you also need to take special care with NAT on your modem/router.
Probably this is not what you want to do. In 99% of cases, you should be running the wallet on a server with a static IP. And that usually means Linux.
To find the conf file, see here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/bitcoin-conf.md#configuration-file-path
If you have Linux and sysadmin skills, you can install a full node wallet as a service, and maintain/update/backup the wallet. If you don’t, you should check out the CoinPayments adapter which is easier to use and does not require setting up a server.
Let me know if you have any more questions about this.

In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] Wallet not showingHello,
It is not possible to install Bitcoin core wallet via cPanel. You must have some expertise with Linux administration and the shell to install and maintain the wallet.
If you are not familiar with system administration, you could consider using the plugin with the CoinPayments adapter.
If you want to use the plugin with a full node, install the Bitcoin core client on a server with sufficient resources. You will find the conf file in
~/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf.with regards,

If you saw this message once, then it’s because your site is not yet receiving traffic. By default, crons can only be trigerred when you or someone else is visiting the site.
If you continue to see the error message, please open a new thread on this forum, and we’ll explore this.

In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] Wallet not showingHello,
If the
manage_walletscapability is not there, you need to add it by typing it. Then ensure it’s checked.Then the menu will be shown.
Once the menu is shown, you should go to Wallets -> Capabilities and check all the other capabilities as well. The roles for users should typically have all the shown capabilities besides
manage_walletswhich is for admins.with regards

In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] Wallet not showingHello,
Not sure why this happened.
First, try to deactivate and re-activate the plugin.
If that doesn’t work, use another plugin to edit the capabilities of the admin user. The admin user should have the
manage_walletscapability for the menu to show.You can use User Role Editor for this. Go to “Users” -> “User Role Editor” -> select “Administrator” -> “add capability” ->
manage_wallets. The capability must be checked. Click “update”.This should resolve the issue. Let me know if it doesn’t.

AlexHello and welcome,
If you are interested in running your own full node, then you must setup the bitcoin core client on a server. Then, enter the credentials you want to use in the plugin. Finally the plugin will suggest a conf file like the one above. You can then insert this into your
~/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conffile. Finally, ensure that your host’s firewalls are not blocking the RPC connection. More instructions are here.Most users are not able to run their own full node wallet. If you don’t have experience with system administration and the command line, then you might prefer to use the CoinPayments adapter. For more information see here.

In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] coinpayments.net adapter problemsHello,
Communication was probably not lost. This is likely an issue with caching the API data on the server side. After you modify the list of accepted coins in CoinPayments, go to Wallets -> CoinPayments -> HTTP Settings and hit the “Clear HTTP cache” button.
(Normally the cache would expire after about 60 seconds by default, but if your server-side cache is misconfigured, this can cause transients to not expire properly.)
Let me know if clearing the cache doesn’t fix the problem.

In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] Usable on shared hosting?Hello,
It is unlikely that you will encounter problems, as others also have used the plugin on shared hosting.
If you combine it with the CoinPayments adapter extension, you may need to contact your hosting provider about incoming IPN messages. All is explained in the installation instructions for the adapter.
In general the plugin works with other plugins. If you encounter any incompatibility with other plugins, let me know and I’ll look into it.
If you have any more questions about the plugin, please open a new thread or email me.
with regards,
AlexHello,
This is likely a networking issue.
While unlikely, it is possible that CoinPayments was not available at this time.
Does the error persist, or did it go away?
with regards,
AlexP.S. This is an issue related to the CoinPayments adapter, not the main plugin. The support forum for the CoinPayments adapter is here: https://www.dashed-slug.net/forums/forum/coinpayments-net-coin-adapter-extension-support/

In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] can’t connect my full node btc serverHello,
Good news, you’ve successfully connected the plugin to your Bitcoin core node.
The clue to what is wrong, is in the error message you get back from Bitcoin core:
No wallet is loaded. Load a wallet using loadwallet or create a new one with createwallet. (Note: A default wallet is no longer automatically created)

In reply to: [Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets] Nothing appears@leonidas2012 Oops, apologies. Normally I aim to reply to all queries within 24 hours Monday to Friday. For some reason I didn’t get a notification for your post and I don’t know why. If you had emailed me I would definitely reply. In any case, the plugin is aimed at developers. It’s probably not a good idea to run a financial website without understanding the “programmer mumbo jumbo” and you were wise to seek the help of a developer.
@logosophia I have replied to your other posts and emails. Glad to hear it’s working now. In the future could you please open a new thread and try to describe in more detail, what is not working, so I can help? Thank you.
