Which will take you to this screen and help set up different types of accounts
Once you have an account added it will appear on that main view and you'll be able to select it

I will try again. Thank you @floating

No problem, let me know if you run into any other issues

When I try to add an account, I choose Aragon and pick the DAO name. Then it asks me for an acting account - what is this and how do I choose it?
Jordan Muir
@floating
Your acting account is the account you use to interact with your DAO.
When you add an Aragon account you are adding the DAO itself.
After setting them up, when you use the Aragon account you will be acting as your DAO and signing those actions with the acting account that has permission to do so.

I am sorry to keep bothering you, but my extension does not seem to work. I can only open Frame from the desktop app. I added the Argaon DAO as the account, iI am not sure what you mean by the account I use to interact with the DAO? Do you mean the Metamask Wallet?
Jordan Muir
@floating
Not a bother at all!
So the extension is a very lightweight bridge to the desktop app
It does not have it's own interface
It's just a tool for injecting a connection to Frame into browser dapps that do not know how to connect to Frame directly yet

@JMed0115
sometimes when I try to start Frame it says that it already running -
Jordan Muir
@floating
Frame lives in your menubar only, on mac/linux that means upper right and on windows lower right
Make sure it's not running there already before opening it again
JMed0115
@JMed0115
Aha!
One thing solved. Now I just have to figure out how to add the acting acount
Jordan Muir
@floating
Yes, we need some more helpful instructions here. So when you cast a vote or do something with your DAO you sign those actions with your Metamask account previously?
JMed0115
@JMed0115
yes I use my Metamask account to sign the transaction

Jordan Muir
@floating
Ok so that is your acting account in this case, you'll need to move that into Frame first using the phrase account option
once you do it will show up as an option under acting accounts when setting up your DAO
JMed0115
@JMed0115
I have added the Phrase and password. Now I seem to have a seed account! Thank you! However, now when I go into the Aragon DAO it still asks me to install Frame
Jordan Muir
@floating
Clicking on that dark blue header button of the account will open it
And you will be using your seed backed account just the same as you would in Metamask
The Aragon account option is for enabling your DAO's agent out on the decentralized web
JMed0115
@JMed0115
Not sure what you mean by the dark blue header button?
Jordan Muir
@floating
Where it says the account type "hot" in your case
You would use the Aragon account option if you wanted your DAO to use Uniswap directly or something along those lines

@JMed0115
Thx, I will try to get it to work further. Thank you very much for your assistance!
Jordan Muir
@floating
Any time!
JMed0115
@JMed0115
here i am again. I am trying to sign into the Aragon DAO using my Hot Seed Account. Right now I only have the option to connect using my Metamask Wallet. Therefore the DAO is not really connected to Frame. Is there a way to connect the DAO (sign in) using my Hot Seed Account?
this is in IDChain by the way
Jordan Muir
@floating
@JMed0115 Hey, yes , you cannot use both Metamask and Frame extensions at the same time as they do they same thing at injection time.
The easy way to manage this is to just toggle them on/off in the extension menu
No need to uninstall, just toggle one on and one off when you want to switch
The extension menu is under "more tools" in Chrome
JMed0115
@JMed0115
even if I turn off Metamask, I do not get the option to connect using Frame, just Metamask
JMed0115
@JMed0115
I got it to connect via Frame. However, the Aragon DAO still asks me to install Frame even though I am connected by my Frame Wallet.
Jordan Muir
@floating
@JMed0115 Hmm, I cannot reproduce this issue. Once Metamask is off you may need to reload the app. It might be worth asking over on the Aragon side
JMed0115
@JMed0115
OK thanks again
Jordan Muir
@floating
No problem, if you don't get any answers over there come back and I'll help you troubleshoot.

hey everyone! I just started using frame and I really like it. I use xDai sometimes however, is there an option for adding custom RPCs?
Jordan Muir
@floating
Hey @c0rv0s! The functionality you're looking for is in v0.3.3 which is currently in prerelease but should be officially released within a few days. https://github.com/floating/frame/releases/tag/v0.3.3 We're just working through a few final UX improvements and testing.
