How do I go about receiving my Bitcoing Gold (BTG) into my wallet after the 10-23-17 hard fork?

Found answer in another thread. If it helps here it is;
With the Bitcoin.com wallet you hold the private keys to your bitcoins. We will not support the Bitcoin Gold fork directly, however as you control the private keys to your bitcoins when using our wallet you will be able to export those private keys using the Settings > [Your Wallet] > More Options > Export Wallet function. As we will not be supporting Bitcoin Gold directly it's unlikely that we'll be developing any tools to recover Bitcoin Gold but as long as you have your private keys you will be able to use them in whatever tools are made available to recover coins from the new forked chain.

You may find the following guide useful for backing up your private keys:

I recommend to keep checking the Bitcoin Gold website - https://btcgpu.org - to see when they release a Bitcoin Gold wallet.
