Package Setup/Configuration

Begin by going to Configuration () > System Settings > General Settings > Servers or, prior to WHMCS 8.0, Setup > Products/Services > Servers. Add a new server. The name can be anything you want, the module must be set as "Heartinternet" and your Username and Password for Heart's API (which can be obtained from https://customer.heartinternet.co.uk/manage/api) needs to be entered into the appropriate fields. The other fields of the server profile are all optional.

Next it's onto the products. If you already have your packages setup then just edit those to add the Heart settings, but if not then create a new product in the normal way from Configuration () > System Settings > Products/Services or, prior to WHMCS 8.0, Setup > Products/Services. On the Module Settings tab select "Heartinternet" from the dropdown. There you'll find two fields: Test Mode and Package ID. Enter the Package ID which should be a value you can get from inside your heart control panel and then select the automation setting you want for orders of this item (ie. auto setup on first payment, or only after accepting the pending order, etc..) then save.

Now try a test order to check everything is ok. If setup of the hosting account fails for any reason and the account remains pending, check in Configuration () > System Logs or, prior to WHMCS 8.0, Utilities > Activity Log for any errors returned from the API.

-====Test Mode====
-WHMCS can be configured for testing purposes by ticking the "TestMode" option when configuring Heart Internet as the registrar. This will point all domain related requests to the test environment provided to you by Heart Internet.
-===Automatic Registration===
-WHMCS allows you to setup automatic domain registration on a per extension basis enabling you to use different registrars for different TLDs to give you the flexibility to offer more extensions and always get the best value.
-To enable automatic registration, please refer to [[Domain Pricing|Configuring Automatic Registration]]
-===Automatic Domain Synchronization===
-The Heart Internet module supports automatic domain synchronization for syncing of expiry dates and status changes for incoming transfers.
-To enable this functionality, you need to ensure you have the '''Domain Sync Enabled''' in '''Configuration (<i class="fa fa-wrench" aria-hidden="true"></i>) > System Settings > Domains''' or, prior to WHMCS 8.0, '''Setup > General Settings > Domains'''. Ensure you have the [[Crons#Domain_Sync_Cron|Domain Sync Cron]] configured on your system.
-==Troubleshooting==
-'''Caught exception: Communication failure'''<br>
-Please ensure the following ports are open for outbound connections from your WHMCS server: 700(live) & 1701(test). This error suggests your firewall is blocking connections to HeartInternet and should be opened.
