New Blockchain wallet - how to sign a message?

[bitbunnny]

Those who use blockchain wallet have probably noticed that they have changed it. I can't find the "sign message" option anymore, can someone help? I looked at "receive" and advanced options but still haven't found it.

AFAIK you can't. your only option (right now) is to import the private keys to some other wallet and sign from there. the new wallet sucks.

[bitbunnny]

How could they do that? This is important feature. I don't like the new design either. The old version of wallet is still available just don't know for how long.

[--Encrypted--]

yeah. they released a VERY incomplete wallet. hell I can't find an export private key button anywhere. have you seen it? 

[bitbunnny]

Nope, haven't. I will write to the support. It's stil in beta phase maybe they will add more features.

Is the download PDF option unavailable in the new version ?

You can still sign a message in blockchain.info if you are not yet go on upgrade, i just tried it now. After doing that upgrade, you can now configure the security features such as backup phrase, second password, logging in mobile phone via pairing and etc.
My problem is, how will I know the private key of my address?

I used the wallet the first day of launch, and had the same questions. I contacted support about their half-baked client, and they responded with a snarky "We will add them later, if you don't like it, go back to the legacy version."

Not to be a cheapskate, but I asked them how to do that, and they told me to make a totally new wallet and SEND my bitcoin over to the new wallet... wtf?

*Months later*

Still can't:
- Sign a message
- Export private key
- Revert to wallet v2 from v3
- Use the mobile app
- Log in using the normal blockchain.info/wallet page
- And more

Yap that's the advantages of the newesr beta blockchain wallet. It is upgraded but they remove some importants thing from the old version. But I think they will add all those missing options in the next updates.
