Wizard + Remix + Ethereum combination needs improvement

Originally reported here: https://twitter.com/chrishobcroft/status/1408042536933920768

Having issue w/ @OpenZeppelin+@EthereumRemix+@etherscan

To reproduce:

  1. Make contract in wizard
  2. Open in Remix, deploy to Injected Web3
  3. Verify using Etherscan plugin (API key installed)
  4. Contract / Read / Write not showing at rinkeby.etherscan

Am I expecting too much?

The contract is not actually verified. In the Etherscan plugin on Remix, next to the home button you'll find a list of "receipts" with verification status, you will see it failed.

We recommend a different approach to verifying Remix-deployed contracts:
