sorry guys I am still not getting this. So you are saying BCC will just appear in my electrum wallet 8/1/17 at 12:20pm as long as my BTC is there, or do I have to have my BTC in another type of electrum wallet... such as the one found on this website recommended by bitcoin cash

http://www.electrumcash.org/

However this website says it is coming soon.


No it will not. Read the instructions at Bitcoin Cash:

You can continue to use legacy Bitcoin as usual.  As long as you hold your private keys, any unspent bitcoins from before August 1 will be be safely waiting for you. Make and keep a backup of your wallet before July 31. When you are ready, copy your pre-fork wallet.dat (or import your private keys) into one of the Bitcoin Cash implementations, and your pre-split balance will be available to you as Bitcoin Cash.
