 * Hi,
 * I am getting the following error when customers try to pay with bitcoin;
 * ERROR: cannot generate bitcoin address for the order. Host reply: ‘Error Http
   Notifications Are Currently Disabled ‘
 * Is this my fault or is there something wrong? I have woocommerce installed and
   working well with paypal, the bitcoin payment was working as recently as 2 days
   ago.
 * Cheers,
    Jeremy NinjaStik Admin

 * This is reply from blockchain.info.
    It is possibly temporary, or maybe even 
   that they block requests from your domain.
 * I just releases major version update: 2.x, I suggest to try it out – it has major
   enhancement improving speed of payments, privacy, security and completely eliminate
   dependency on any third party service to accept payments.
 * Version 2.x allows you to accept payments into your own Electrum wallet and avoid
   blockchain.info service to manage your payments completely.

 * Hi, Just noticed the new version is giving an error as I have my store currency
   set to CAD.
 * Bitcoin payment gateway is not operational: Store currency is set to unsupported
   value(‘CAD’). Valid currencies:
 * Can I revert to to 1.28?
 * Cheers

 * Try to do this:
    – Go to plugin settings – Check checkbox “Delete all plugin-
   specific settings” – Deactivate and then delete plugin completely – Reinstall
   plugin – Set all settings a new. – Save

 * To fix this HTTP error, find this function (bwwc_utils.php) and change its contents
   as follows (you will be deleting most of it)
 *     ```
       function BWWC__file_get_contents ($url, $return_content_on_error=false, $timeout=60, $user_agent=FALSE)
       {
             return @file_get_contents ($url);
       }
       ```
