Installation
1. the Coinsnap Bitcoin Voting plugin from the WordPress directory.
The Coinsnap Bitcoin Voting plugin can be searched and installed in the WordPress plugin directory.
You can easily find the Coinsnap Bitcoin Voting plugin under Plugins/Install new plugin if you enter Coinsnap Bitcoin Voting in the search field. Simply click on Install now in the Coinsnap plugin and WordPress will install it for you.
Now WordPress will offer you to Activate the plugin – click the button and you are set to go!
Next, you will connect the plugin with your Coinsnap account.
1.1. Coinsnap Bitcoin Voting Settings
After you have installed and activated the Coinsnap Bitcoin Voting plugin, you need to configure the Coinsnap settings. Go to Bitcoin Voting -> Settings [1] in the black sidebar on the left.
Now choose your payment gateway Coinsnap [1]. (You can also choose BTCPay server if you are using one, and then fill in the respective information.)
Then you’ll have to enter your Coinsnap Store ID and your Coinsnap API Key. [2] (See below to learn how to retrieve these from your Coinsnap account.)
As soon as you’ve pasted the Store ID and the API Key into their fields, click on check. If you see a green message next to it saying Connection successful, your plugin is ready to accept Bitcoin votes and credit them to your Lightning wallet.
Don’t forget to klick on Save changes before you start configuring your poll(s)!
1.2. Enter Store ID and API Key in your Coinsnap Bitcoin Voting Settings
Go to the Settings menu item in your Coinsnap merchant admin backend (https://app.coinsnap.io/login). Then click on Store and you will see your Coinsnap Store ID and the Coinsnap API Key in the Store section.
Copy these two strings and paste them into the matching fields in the Coinsnap Bitcoin Voting settings in your WordPress backend.
Click on the “Save changes” button at the bottom of the page to apply and save the settings. You are ready to start selling for Bitcoin now: Just create a donation form and place it via the shortcode on your website.
YOU ARE SET TO SELL FOR BITCOIN NOW! To be sure all works fine, you should now…
1.3. Test the payment method in a Coinsnap Bitcoin Voting poll on your website
After all settings have been made, a test transaction should be carried out.
Choose any option in your poll. If your poll is not set to gather voter information, a QR code will appear. If you do gather information, you need to fill out the information you require to vote.
You now have to pay your voting “fee” by scanning the displayed QR code and authorizing the payment with your Lightning wallet. After successful payment, you will see a confirmation.
2. Install the Coinsnap Bitcoin Voting plugin from our Github page
If you don’t want to install the Coinsnap Bitcoin Voting plugin directly from your WordPress backend, download the Coinsnap Bitcoin Voting plugin from the Coinsnap Github page.
Find the green button labeled Code on the top right. When you click on it, the menu opens and Download ZIP appears in the dropdown menu. By clicking on it you will download the latest version of the Coinsnap plugin to your computer.
Then use the “Upload plugin” function in WordPress to install it. Click on “Install now” and the Coinsnap Bitcoin Voting plugin will be added to your WordPress website. It can then be connected to the Coinsnap payment gateway (as explained above).
From here on you can follow 1.1 to 1.3 and you will be set to sell for Bitcoin in no time at all!
