Account field shouldn't be required for non BP nodes
Closed this issue · 1 comments
account field should be able to be blank and not displayed for any type of node except BP.
This might need some more thought.
Maybe it would be good to have for external nodes too? Maybe optional?
The account is just a primary key to identify the node name.
It happens that if you have a node with the same name of a EOS Producer account we can link the block production stats. So for producer nodes you can set the same name as the eos account and for any other type of nodes you can just set an identifier like: fullnode1, externalapi1 etc.
Maybe we should make a tooltip explaining it on the New Node modal. Thoughts? I just don't think we should leave it blank because it's how Windshield link and process all the nodes.
