    Hello,

    The referral program of the Faucet Extension is only useful for the faucet. It cannot be used for other purposes.

    I would recommend that you look for a referral-specific plugin that does what you ask.

    kind regards

    in reply to: Block explorer and User Balance Mismatch #2650

    User balances are not stored anywhere – they are derived as the sum of all user transactions. This is safer than storing a single number that could be easily manipulated.

    If you have deposited or withdrawn via cold storage then that would, by design, affect the wallet balance but not the user balances. So the difference would be expected.

    The wallet balance and the users balances are not the same thing. The difference is explained in the glossary section of the documentation.

    Reasons why the two amounts would diverge:

    1. As users pay fees for transactions, their total balances decrease but the wallet balance stays the same.
    2. If you have used the cold storage feature, or alternatively if you have deposited/withdrawn directly from the wallet and not via the plugin, then the balances will not match. See the Cold Storage section in the documentation for more.

    As for the block explorer, I assume you have created a coin adapter for CLAM. This is where the hook would go to add the block explorer URIs. See the Block Explorers section of the documentation for example code and instructions.

    Please let me know if any of this is not clear

    Yes, thank you, I understood what you meant. My point is that the frontend cannot currently know if there are actually more than one pages, until it actually requests them. This is why I have not added buttons for pagination. I am preparing a release where there will be versioning on the JSON API. Then afterwards I can add new versions of the API in a backwards compatible way, so that things like this can be done.

    regards

    Hello,

    Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

    1. The input box for the page number is of type=”number”, therefore you do not need to type a number, you can just use the scroll buttons next to it, in all but the oldest browsers. The page numbers cannot be buttons because the frontend cannot know in advance how many pages there are.

    2. Numbers can be added, but it is somewhat tricky. I will add this to the backlog and visit it after the tasks I’m currently working on. Thanks for the suggestion.

    Hello,

    I’m a bit confused, why did you expect the balances on two different sites to match?

    Every site should have its own set of transactions, and therefore user balances.

    (I assume that you have connected both sites to the same wallet, something that I would advise against because it introduces a single point of failure for both sites in case of a hack. But in any case, just because the wallet balances match does not mean that the user balances should also match.)

    Let me know. Thanks.

    Hello,

    Yes, you are correct, I can add another box showing the amount with fees subtracted.

    in reply to: exchange rate problem #2625

    Hi again,

    Please do the following to resolve this issue:

    1. Upgrade your CoinPayments adapter to the latest version, 1.0.1

    2. Go to Wallets -> Rates and enable one of the exchange rate providers. This is necessary for the WooCommerce payment gateway extension.

    3. Wait for 5 minutes, or whatever the “Rates cache expiry (minutes)” option is set to.

    After that, the LTCT symbol should be assigned with an exchange rate.

    kind regards

    Hi Andy,

    You cannot simply disable that, since the WooCommerece plugin needs the exchange rates API.

    The issue here is that you are correctly using LTCT to test the site, but there is not an actual coin with that symbol.

    I will change the code to make sure that LTCT has an exchange rate, possibly the same as LTC, so that you can proceed with your tests.

    Thank you very much for reporting.

    Hi,

    Yes I do have plans to add a number of statistics in the dashboard area including earned commissions from transaction fees.

    thanks

    in reply to: notified when there is a pending transaction #2616
    alexg
    Keymaster

    Yes, this is a feature that would be useful.

    I am thinking about adding an email notification, because an admin needs to know even if they are not logged in.

    I will try to add this feature soon.

    Thank you for the suggestion.

    in reply to: Different domains with the same account #2615
    alexg
    Keymaster

    No, unfortunately this is not possible.

    Additionally, even though using the same CoinPayments account for multiple sites is possible, I would advise against it.

    You are unnecessarily creating a single point of failure for all your sites in the unlikely case of a security breach.

    Also it is now harder to know if the sum of your user balances matches with the balance totals in your account, so it will be harder for you to use the cold storage feature, which is one of your best protection tools against a hack.

    In conclusion, I would recommend that you use different wallets for all your sites.

    kind regards

    Hi, this was how it was in a much earlier version when the plugin was in its infancy and I got a large number of requests to do the UI as it is now.

    The only thing I could do is provide an option between the two ways of doing this.

    I cannot promise you that I can do this any time soon as it is a low priority thing compared to other tasks. As it is, the UI clearly states that the fees are subtracted from the amount so I do not believe there is any source of confusion.

    Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this.

    kind regards

    in reply to: Fees for internal withdrawal #2613
    alexg
    Keymaster

    Hi,

    Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately this is not very easy to do.

    As it is, withdrawals are done with the [wallets_withdraw] shortcode, and intra-user transfers are done with the [wallets_move] shortcode, which will be improved soon at the upcoming 3.0.0 release. If a user attempts to withdraw to a deposit address of the same system, the plugin performs in the backend an internal transfer (aka move) instead. The frontend has no way to know which addresses belong to different users.

    I would suggest that you use your page’s text to inform users about this. You could encourage them to use internal transfers or otherwise notify them that if they are sending to a deposit address to another user on the same site, no blockchain transaction will occur.

    kind regards
