Activation

To activate and begin using the Heart Internet registrar module:

  1. Log in to your WHMCS Admin Area.
  2. Navigate to Configuration () > System Settings > Domain Registrars or, prior to WHMCS 8.0, Setup > Products/Services > Domain Registrars.
  3. Locate Heart Internet in the list.
  4. Click Activate.
  5. Enter your Heart Internet API credentials.
  6. Click Save Changes.

Click here to obtain the API username and password.

Test Mode

You can configure WHMCS for testing purposes by checking TestMode when you configure Heart Internet as the registrar. This will point all domain-related requests to the test environment.

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 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 use this, enable:

  • Domain Sync Enabled in Configuration () > System Settings > Domains or, prior to WHMCS 8.0, Setup > General Settings > Domains.
  • The Domain Sync Cron on your system.

Troubleshooting

Caught exception: Communication failure

This error indicates that your firewall is blocking connections to HeartInternet. Make certain that the following ports are open for outbound connections from your WHMCS server:

  • 700(live)
  • 1701(test).
