Title: bitcoin-qt shows "n/a" instead of address after "payment to yourself"? Post by: kbdwarrior on August 30, 2017, 04:35:54 PM Hi all,
I sent my bitcoins to a new address in bitcoin-qt on my linux machine, and now this transaction shows as a Label in the UI "(n/a)" instead of the address as the other transactions do. It's the only tx of type "payment to yourself" that I did. Also rightclick -> "copy address" yields an empty string. Otherwise it looks ok, the balance is here minus the fee. When I do "gettransaction txid" in the console I see a send and a receive entry to the address I sent to and that should be shown in the UI, imho. Anybody knows why the address is not shown here and if this is ok? Title: Re: bitcoin-qt shows "n/a" instead of address after "payment to yourself"?

And by the way, why does GitHub call it also commited on 3/19/2018, besides the original date of 10/10/2017? Title: Re: bitcoin-qt shows "n/a" instead of address after "payment to yourself"?

Commits were last pushed on 3/19/2018 while the commit date is 10/10/2017. This happens because people will amend their commits and force push, but amending does not modify the commit date.Title: Re: bitcoin-qt shows "n/a" instead of address after "payment to yourself"?

I can only say I'm okay with it: it's easy to distinguish between internal and external transactions, and that's basically all I need to know.Quote Anybody knows why the address is not shown here and if this is ok? It's normal.Title: Re: bitcoin-qt shows "n/a" instead of address after "payment to yourself"? Post by: jnano on March 27, 2018, 04:19:15 PM Normal but not informative. jonasschnelli's fix shows at least the address, though showing the label would be even better.
luke-jr's suggestion (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11471#pullrequestreview-75778282) is also not a bad idea, to just show it as both sent + received txes. I suppose that includes the label. |
