    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    IP Registration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    ResellerClub’s API is IP restricted. If you want to use the ResellerClub API, you must first allow your servers IP to access your ResellerClub account via the API:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Login to the LogicBoxes\/ResellerClub control panel<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Navigate to Settings -> API<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Enter your server IP address in the fields provided<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Click on the Save Whitelisted IP addresses button<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Note<\/strong> : If you fail to follow the above steps, you will get the error message, “Access Denied: You are not authorized to perform this action”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Configuring ResellerClub<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Before using the ResellerClub, you need to configure it. Below are the steps to complete the configuration:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. Login to the ResellerClub Control Panel and navigate to User Profile -> Manage Profile<\/strong> and note down the Reseller ID<\/strong> somewhere. (You will receive the URL in through an email when you sign up).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. While you are still on the ResellerClub control panel page, navigate to Settings -> API<\/strong> and enter the IP address of the server where WHMCS is installed. It is now authorized for the API access.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      3. On the same page, you will find an API Key<\/strong> \u2013 you will need to note down this API key.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        Why Designated Agent?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        This option modifies the approval workflow used while updating the WHOIS contact details and transferring domain names. For more information about Designated Agent, refer to the ResellerClub documentation article: https:\/\/freeaccount.myorderbox.com\/kb\/node\/5<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        How to Use Demo Mode?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        Note<\/strong> : ResellerClub requires the use of a Demo Account Reseller ID and API Key with the Test URL instead of your Live Account credentials. Usage of your Live Account credentials, even with the Test URL, will result in actions being performed in the live environment. Orders placed through the ResellerClub Demo Platform will simulate a domain registration and management function, but no domain will actually be registered, and you will not be charged. This can be useful to test WHMCS configurations prior to going live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        To use the ResellerClub demo mode:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        1. Register for an account on the dedicated demo system at: https:\/\/demoserver.partnersite.myorderbox.com\/reseller.php?action=show_signupform<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. In WHMCS, navigate to Configuration () -> System Settings -> Domain Registrars -> ResellerClub<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
        3. If you have a version prior to WHMCS 8.0, Setup -> Domain Registrars -> ResellerClub<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
        4. Enter the new Reseller ID<\/strong> and API Key<\/strong> for your demo account<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        5. Check the TestMode checkbox<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        6. Click on the Save Changes button<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          Once the testing is completed, enter the Reseller ID<\/strong> and API Key<\/strong> of your live account as above, and uncheck the TestMode checkbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Note:<\/strong> Live nameservers created at the Registry will return a Nameserver is not a valid Nameserver error unless they are created\/registered in the demo environment. The demo control panel will try to check the validity of the nameservers in the demo platform and not on the Registry, so you must register the nameservers first before attempting any domain registrations on the demo platform. You can use ns1.onlyfordemo.net and ns2.onlyfordemo.net as your nameservers without having to first register them on the demo environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Domain Contacts in Different Versions<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

          Version 5.x and Below:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          In version 5.x and below, the client’s profile data is always used while registering domains through LogicBoxes modules (ResellerClub, NetEarthOne, Stargate), even if the “User Client Details” option is disabled in the General Settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Version 6.x and Above:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          In version 6.x and above, a unique contact will be created for each domain. This contact will be applied to the Registrant, Billing, Tech and Admin contact for the domain’s whois records. Modifying the whois details for the domain will change only this one domain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          If a client has multiple domains registered, they will all use the same contact details for all four WHOIS contacts. Changing the WHOIS details on one domain will also change the details for others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Automatic Domain Registration<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

          You can automatically setup the Domain Registration based on extension in WHMCS. This will enable you to use different registrars for different TLDs thus giving you the flexibility to offer more extensions and get the best value. Refer to Configuring Automatic Registration to enable automatic registration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Automatic Domain Synchronization<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

          Automatic Domain Synchronization is supported by the ResellerClub module. This can be used for syncing of expiry dates and status changes for incoming transfers. This functionality can be enabled by having the Domain Sync Enabled. To enable it, Navigate to Setup -> General Settings -> Domains. Make sure that you have the Domain Sync Cron configured on your system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
