Title: Migrating from 0.9.3c to Openledger Webwallet
Post by: robo on October 21, 2015, 09:14:09 am

Hi

I've exported my wallet keys to a .json file using 0.9.3c and now I
want to get started using Openledger webwallet.

On the initial screen of Openledger should I click on 'Create Account' or 'Existing Account'?

If  I choose 'Existing Account' do I then click 'Import from Bitshares 0.9.3c' and
then enter my old password from my 0.9.3c wallet?

Thanks

-> Existing Account
-> Import from BitShares 0.9.3c
-> Create new wallet with new passphrase
-> Provide file
-> Enter OLD passphrase

Everything worked fine and I now have my bts transferred to
OpenLedger Webwallet.

Just one thing, I can't seem to find the wallet management console
so I can make backups.
I can only see 'Dashboard'  'Explorer'  'Exchange'   'Transfer'
across the top of the screen.  How should I access the wallet management console?

Thanks

There is a cogwheel icon in the upper right corner, you click there and then in the blue "WALLETS" word.

I've backed up my wallet now.

One last stupid question. Where do I find the public key for
sending bts to my account?  I've looked in 'Permissions' but
there seems to be three different keys there. Should I be looking
somewhere else?

I'll probably be buying some more bts soon from Blocktrade but I need
to suppy them with a public key.

Thanks

no need for ugly keys ... just let them send the funds to your account name .. it's registered on the blockchain

I didn't realize that.  My account name is now prefixed
with 'bts-' .  In 0.9.3c it used to be "OldAccountName" but now its "bts-OldAccountName".

When buying from Blocktrade should I use "OldAccountName" or "bts-OldAccountName"?

Thanks

definitely the new prefixed name!!!!

but you should consider registering the unprefixed name too .. just for fun :)
