Hi DDeAlmeida, got you and thank you for posting the question.

We acknowledge the existing support for multiple wallets; however, our current WalletSelector does not support the import of a full access key, which is essential for the minting process through the web wallet. We are exploring options to enable minting functionality in other wallets, addressing the current limitation of WalletSelector. This requires extra research and effort.
