    I noticed that users wallet address was changed after updating the plugin, because i am using the coinpaysment adopter, my question is there

    1. if after updates, will the users balance and funds be reset to zero and wallet addresses change leading to afresh start and possibly lose of funds?

    2. the coinpayment adopter i believe uses the coinpayment api, does it mean that each user that creates an account on my website automatically gets a new e-currencies wallet address of the supported crypto coins i enabled in the backend of my coinpaymens, then if that be the case, does it mean that a new wallet address will be created in my coinpayment account for each user of my website, and if it is so,does is mean that after 5 new user is created which gives 5 new wallet address on coinpspays then an additional wallet will be deleted and replaced with the new address, does it mean using coinpayments adopter will limit my website users to be only five users with active wallet at a time, whereby other formerly registered users wallet will be deleted leaving them with old unfunctional wallet or none

    Hello,

    The following applies independent of which coin adapter(s) you use:

    1. The user balances are derived from the transactions table. The transactions table is not deleted even when you uninstall the plugin. If you subsequently choose to reinstall the plugin, all users will have the same balance as before. If you wish to delete the transactions table permanently, you must do so manually from your MySQL console.

    2. You are correct in that the CoinPayments adapter uses the CoinPayments API. New deposit addresses are “callback addresses” from that API, and are assigned to users by the plugin. Each user’s deposit address remains as is until you choose to “refresh deposit addresses” from the coin adapters list admin screen. Once a new deposit address is assigned to a user, that user still retains all the old deposit addresses and will be credited with any deposits on those addresses. The deposit addresses are stored on another table on your DB, and that table also persists between installs (i.e. it is not deleted on uninstall).

    There is no limit on how many users can be assigned deposit addresses. Did you encounter a limit of five users somewhere? If so, could you please give me more information?

    Thank you

    Actually I went and rechecked all the addresses and it contains more than 20users of the beta version of my site, I understand your above explanations.

    Thanks.
