=Additional Information=
 +
{|
 +
|style="padding: 10px 0px 30px 15px;"|1. If option '' 'Auto Renewal' '' was enabled, an adequate renewal invoice was generated, but then, due to some reasons, '' 'Auto Renewal' '' option is disabled.<br> In such a situation '''NO''' actions are triggered on the already generated invoice. It will not be either canceled or changed.  <br/>
 +
Additionally, if credit card payment is enabled in your WHMCS, then your system will attempt to charge the credit card. With every failed attempt to charge the credit card,<br/> an email notification will be sent. <br/> <br/>
 +
''Please be aware that this is due to the WHMCS functionality, not the module itself.''

<!-- LANGUAGES -->
+
=Tips=
 +
{|
 +
|style="padding: 10px 0px 5px 15px;"|1. If your client turns off auto renewal and does not run the renewal manually, then the service status will change to suspended/terminated after a certain time period.<br />
 +
Time period depends on WHMCS settings at '' 'Setup' '' → '' 'Automation Settings' '' → '' 'Automatic Module Functions''. '
 +
|}
 +
{|
 +
|style="padding: 0px 0px 5px 15px;"|2. Hosting Renewals For WHMCS supports all billing cycles, from monthly to triennially.<br />
 +
Depending on the chosen billing cycle, displayed value of a renew button is changing according to the following code which is located in '' 'language' '' directory in your language file:<br />
 +
$LANG['cyclemonthly']='1 Month';
 +
$LANG['cyclequarterly']='3 Months';
 +
$LANG['cyclesemiannually']='6 Months';
 +
$LANG['cycleannually']='1 Year';
 +
$LANG['cyclebiennially']='2 Years';
 +
$LANG['cycletriennially']='3 Years';
 +
|}
 +
{|
 +
|style="padding: 0px 0px 15px 15px;"|3. You can forward a client directly to invoice page after a successful renew.<br />
 +
To enable this, go to the '' 'Configuration' '' tab in our module and expand '' 'Additional Options'. ''<br />
 +
Afterwards, mark '' 'Automatically relocate to the invoice ' '' checkbox and press '' 'Save Changes'. ''

[edit] Discounts

In 'Discounts' section you may set up various discounts for a changing billing cycle.

You can select two types of items:
1. Products - applies to products selected in 'Items' field.
2. Product Groups - applies to all products in a product group which is selected in the 'Items' field.

You can set up two types of discounts:
1. One time discount - it applies to one billing cycle only.
2. Recurring discount - it will be applied to all billing cycle payments, until your client again changes the billing cycle.
Now, we will set up one time discount for 'Premium Product XL' and 'testProduct'.
If a client switches to a quarterly billing cycle from any other billing cycle, they will receive a 50% discount for payment in the first billing period.

HR12 5.png
As you can see on the following screen, all discounts are listed below.

Each of them can be easily removed by pressing 'Delete' button.

HR12 6.png

[edit] Integration Code

In this section you have to do two things. First of all, choose a method the prices will be displayed in your client area to your clients.
You can choose between four options. Simply select the one that seems perfect to you.
HR13.png
Integration described below allows your customers to manually renew product, turn on/off auto renewal and change billing cycle from their client area.

These options are available for clients only if you have enabled them in the product's configuration!

HR14.png
Once the integration has been done correctly, your clients should see buttons in the client area as marked on the screen:
HR17.png

[edit] Client Area

Depending on the configuration per product your clients will be allowed to manage their renewals in your client area.
HR17.png
They can see the current status and use available buttons to perform allowed actions:
  • Renew service
  • Turn on/off the auto renewal
  • Select billing cycle
HR18.png

[edit] Additional Information

1. If option 'Auto Renewal' was enabled, an adequate renewal invoice was generated, but then, due to some reasons, 'Auto Renewal' option is disabled.
In such a situation NO actions are triggered on the already generated invoice. It will not be either canceled or changed.

Additionally, if credit card payment is enabled in your WHMCS, then your system will attempt to charge the credit card. With every failed attempt to charge the credit card,
an email notification will be sent.

Please be aware that this is due to the WHMCS functionality, not the module itself.

[edit] Tips

1. If your client turns off auto renewal and does not run the renewal manually, then the service status will change to suspended/terminated after a certain time period.

Time period depends on WHMCS settings at 'Setup' → 'Automation Settings' → 'Automatic Module Functions. '

2. Hosting Renewals For WHMCS supports all billing cycles, from monthly to triennially.

Depending on the chosen billing cycle, displayed value of a renew button is changing according to the following code which is located in 'language' directory in your language file:

$LANG['cyclemonthly']='1 Month';
$LANG['cyclequarterly']='3 Months';
$LANG['cyclesemiannually']='6 Months';
$LANG['cycleannually']='1 Year';
$LANG['cyclebiennially']='2 Years';
$LANG['cycletriennially']='3 Years';
3. You can forward a client directly to invoice page after a successful renew.

To enable this, go to the 'Configuration' tab in our module and expand 'Additional Options'.
Afterwards, mark 'Automatically relocate to the invoice ' checkbox and press 'Save Changes'.

HR16.png
4. If you want to use a template message to send to users with auto-renewal option either 'on' or 'off', you may use the below example:
{if $hosting_auto_renew eq "on"} Service will be automatically renewed in {$service_next_due_date} days. 
{else} Service will expire in {$service_next_due_date} days.  {/if}

[edit] Common Problems

1. When you have problems with connection, check whether your SELinux or firewall does not block ports.
