There are a couple common issues (which are being resolved, but we would like to provide some workarounds for you for now...) that cause certain annoyances when using QORA...
1. DB fails to re-load correctly when killed - to fix this, simply delete your data folder, download the one above that was sync'd as of August 25th. Replace the data folder with the one above after extracting. MAKE SURE TO ALWAYS CLOSE QORA WITH FILE-QUIT TO AVOID THIS ISSUE.
2. Trying to setup a hosted QORA wallet doesn't allow you to save settings... - to fix this issue, file-quit on your qora wallet and let the saving db window disappear (this sometimes takes a couple minutes...) once this is completed, remove the 'settings.json' file in the QORA wallet folder, then restart your QORA wallet and let it create a new settings.json file.
NEW hosted QORA wallet and decentralized block explorer
A new QORA hosted wallet instance has been setup at http://node.qora.tech:9090 - this can be used to access the QORA network, and find hosted sites there, as well as blogs, etc.
A web wallet is in development, but currently only allows localhost connections. This will be redeveloped and a new UI with all QORA has to offer will be built in a web-based platform.
A decentralized QORA block explorer (that every wallet has) can be accessed here http://node.qora.tech:9090/index/blockexplorer.html
