I am having trouble mining on the ProHashing pool. The algorithm Equihash-125.4 is missing. Can I add it or is this something you have to fix? Also Prohashing didn't automatically show up in Balances like other pools do. I tried making an entry for it in options but it didn't work.
Thanks for your questions.

1) Prohashing Equihash 125,4 should be available. I can see it in the Online Services tab. Is it missing here? If not, please go to the Options dialog, Algorithms section to ensure it's enabled.

2) Prohashing requires an API key to display balance details so it will unfortunately not automatically show up. Please go to the Options dialog, Balance section where you can add a new Pool Balance item for Prohashing where you enter your Prohashing API key. I did however identify one issue in the Prohashing balance implementation that could result in no balance showing up anyway. I will correct this in the next release.

Thank you for your reply. ProHashing Equihash 125.4 does show up in the Online Services tab. It is also enabled in Alogrithms. I can mine it fine on other pools, just not on ProHashing. If I try to benchmark it there is no entry for Equihash 125.4 under Prohashing. Every other algorithm for ProHashing shows up.
Is this for a Managed Profit Miner (profit switching) scenario?
In the Benchmark dialog you have a blue link "View excluded algorithms" in the bottom right corner. Please click that one as it will list the algorithms being ignored and the reason. If it for example says that no mining software is available (with Equihash 125,4 support), please make sure you enable Gminer or similar mining software in your Profit Profile.
Yes I am using Profit switching. When I go to benchmark, Equihash 125.4 is not in the exculuded algorithms. When I set the dropdown box to custom pool the dropdown box below it shows all the pools and all their algorithms. It does not show Equihash 125.4 for ProHashing.

Thanks for the details. I found the issue and pushed an updated definition for the pools and algorithms. Your Awesome Miner will automatically get this update within the next few hours. At this point, you should see the missing pool.
Thank you for your work finding the problem.
When I woke up this morning I found both my GPUs mining Equihash 125.4 on ProHashing. I though I must be going out of my mind until I came here and saw your message Smiley
