Trying to stake and followed the tutorial here: https://forum.pivx.org/t/how-to-stake-your-pivx-coins-basic/131/3

I went through all the steps in the video. Wallet is funded, encrypted and unlocked for anon and staking only. Wallet is fully synched. Yes, changed the config file to "staking=1"

But the arrow is still grey not green and says "Staking is not active. Multisend: not active"

What do I do? Thanks

After the first time you sync your chain it requires you to restart the wallet before it will stake, that might be it.

Unfortunately I've tried that a few times and it doesn't work.  One of the comments in that thread said there's some additional code after "staking=1" but they didn't link to where I can find it?

Your config file should look like this:
listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
staking=1
logtimestamps=1
masternode=0
rpcuser=CHOSENUSERNAME
rpcpassword=CHOSENPASSWORD
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=51470
port=51472


listen, daemon are very important
pick any unique user and a long password. So if you have multiple wallets/masternodes have different usernames
