Activation

To activate and begin using the Ipmirror registrar module:

  1. Log in to the WHMCS Admin Area.
  2. Go to Configuration () > System Settings > Domain Registrars or, prior to WHMCS 8.0, Setup > Products/Services > Domain Registrars.
  3. Find Ipmirror in the list.
  4. Click Activate.
  5. Enter your IPMirror credentials using the configuration below.
  6. Click Save Changes.

Requirements

The Ipmirror module connects WHMCS with the ccTLD Box Registrar Application Interface (RAPI). This allows WHMCS to pass certain domain operations (for example, domain registrations) to IPMirror’s ccTLD Box in real time without manual intervention.

To access ccTLD Box through RAPI, you must:

  • Obtain valid ccTLD Box partner account with IPMirror.
  • Update IPMirror's firewall configuration with the IP address of the WHMCS server(s) you plan to use.
  • Find your partner-specific URL to the ccTLD Box RAPI.

Configuration

Setting Name: DebugMode
The IPMirror username to access your ccTLD Box.
Setting Name: Password
The password to access your ccTLD Box.
Setting Name: ccTLDBoxUrl
The URL to access your ccTLD Box RAPI. This generally uses the https://<partnerdomain>/RAPI/ format, where <partnerdomain> is the domain for your ccTLD Box.
Setting Name: AllowAdminContactChange
If you enable this, a client logged in to the WHMCS Client Area can see and modify the administrative information and contacts for a domain. WHMCS administrators can always see and modify all contacts. We do not recommend this for contacts with a specified contact ID.
Setting Name: DefaultRegContactId
If this is a valid, existing ccTLD Box contact ID, this contact will always be the registrant contact for new domains. Usually, you should disable this in order to have a separate registrant contact for each domain.
Setting Name: ConnectionTimeout Recommended Value: 20 (seconds)
Time in seconds for the interface to wait to connect to ccTLD Box.
Setting Name: ExecutionTimeout Recommended Value: 60 (seconds)
Time in seconds for the interface to wait for ccTLD Box to execute a command.
Setting Name: DebugMode Recommended Value: Off
Enable this to output debug information like parameters or function calls onscreen, with the synchronization script outputting the information to the console. This only works for users with admin privileges. Only use this option to provide debugging information to IPMirror, and disable it immediately afterwards.

Automatic Registration

WHMCS allows you to set up automatic domain registration on a per-extension basis, enabling you to use different registrars for different TLDs.

To enable automatic registration, see Domain Pricing.

Automatic Domain Synchronization

This module supports automatic domain synchronization for syncing expiry dates and status changes for incoming transfers.

To use this, enable Domain Sync Enabled and configure the domain sync task at Configuration () > System Settings > Automation Settings or, prior to WHMCS 8.0, Setup > Automation Settings.
