Bug fixes

  • The custom admin directory is taken into account in the Monitoring Widget

Improvements

  • Error management when connecting to the API. Some feedbacks were reported when the API is not available causing WHMCS to freeze, especially when our widgets are activated on the admin  homepage.

Improvements

Bug fixes

  • Additional fields were always displayed in english whatever was the user language.

  • Some users got missing labels (not translated) in the widgets. The management of translations has been reviewed and updated.
  • Issue in Netim Tld Manager when the account’s password had the special character &

For existing users of v2.x, please pay attention to the red highlighted changes which need actions on your end!

General improvements

  • New management of asynchronous operations
    “Subscription ID” field in domain name management is not used anymore. Rather, asynchronous operations are stored in the local database and updated thanks to the synchronization script.
    Existing users have nothing to do as the script will migrate operations stored with the old method. More information concerning pending requests and templates.
  • New management of additional domain fields
    The definition of the fields has changed to a json file (with new translations). Existing users have to check their translations if they have customized them.
  • Support of the domain lookup provider feature with support of premium domains. See Domain availability check.
  • New domains will get the “Pending registration” status rather than “Pending” one. In case of registration failure, it will get back the “Pending” status by default. 
  • New configuration method for the trustee service and the local contact service
    For existing users, check your existing settings with the new definition.
  • New parameters for debugging management
    The management of logs has been reviewed in order to facilitate the debugging. See Enable Debugging.
  • When the subscription period for a transfer order is more than 1 year, the request submission fails. Netim’s system support only 1 year for domain transfer requests.
  • The hook file /includes/hooks/netim.php is no longer ioncube encoded.
  • Nameservers change can be done with glue record. Provide for exemple ns1.netim.net:1.2.3.4

Improvements the client area

  • New customer template “twenty-one” in order to display messages to clients on asynchronous operations.
    For existing users using other template or custom one, merge our changes in your active template. More information concerning pending requests and templates. 
  • Full translation of the module for client area and templates
    For existing users, ensure to translate in your languages if not English or French.
    More information concerning installation of translations.
  • New service management for DNSSec. A new option/screen is displayed in the client area.

Improvements the admin area

  • On the domain management page.
    • Pending requests are now displayed as a table under “Domain Reminder History”

    • The type of order (registration / transfer) is verified and must match the “Register” or “Transfer” action
    • No more error message if a domain name is in pending status. Check the admin notes for the error message
    • The “Get Epp code” action now displays the code on screen
    • New “Change EPP code” action. This action has the same behavior than “Get Epp code” in v2.X. Thus, a new EPP code is generated and sent to the client or the reseller by email
    • New “.XXX membership” support. It is now possible to save the membership number in order to activate the domain. (Only displayed for .XXX domains)
    • New DNSSec management. The Dnssec status is now displayed if the extension supports DNSSec. In addition, a new “Dnssec” action allows to enable / disable the feature if the domain name uses our nameservers.

Improvments

  • Review and compatibility test

This single version has been tested to work on all versions of PHP since 5.6

  • Delete function of a domain

The execution of the delete operation has been revised to properly handle the different situations impacting expiration date and status.

  • New addon “netim_tld_manager”

Following numerous requests, we are proud to provide a module addon allowing an effective management of the extensions. In particular:

– View the active extensions, the cost prices, the sale prices and make mass modifications

– Add extensions in 1 click

– Check the settings of the extensions vs the values accepted by NETIM

– View promotions

All the accented characters from LATIN1 / LATIN-EXTA / LATIN-EXTB character sets.

Other character sets such as Cyrillic are still not supported.

  • Support of the “domain_sync” and “transfer_syc” functions

The synchronization of domains, in particular concerning expiration date and status, is now achieved by the internal synchronization feature in WHMCS as well as the synchronization of domain transfers.

The old netimsync.php synchronization script is no longer used.

On the other hand, the new netim_opesync.php script must be used to synchronize asynchronous operations such as pending registrations and pending renewals.

Bug fixes

  • Additional domain fields for .IE

The management of the registration process via the fastpass was incorrect.

  • IDN domain management

Registering an IDN domain made the registration of a different domain due to an IDN conversion error.
