Installation
1. Log in to our client area and download the module. |
2. Upload and extract the extension into the main WHMCS directory. Extracted files in your WHMCS directory should look like this: |
3. When you install Proxmox Mail Gateway For WHMCS for the first time, you have to rename the 'license_RENAME.php' file. The file is located in '/yourWHMCS/modules/servers/ProxmoxMailGateway/license_RENAME.php'. Rename it from 'license_RENAME.php' to 'license.php'. |
4. In order to configure your license key, you have to edit the previously renamed 'license.php' file. Enter your license key between the quotation marks as presented on the following screen. |
5. Now, set up the 'storage' folder as recursively writable. This folder is available at '/yourWHMCS/modules/servers/ProxmoxMailGateway/'. |
Server Configuration
6. Now, we will show you how to configure a new server. To do so, log into your WHMCS and go to 'System Settings' → 'Servers'. |
7. Next, enter your server name, hostname and IP address, username and password. Choose 'ProxmoxMailGateway' from a dropdown menu. If you want to provide data for a Linux user account in 'Authentication' select 'Linux PAM standard authentication' , and for ProxmoxMailGateway user select 'Proxmox Mail Gateway authentication server'. |
8. After you configure your server correctly, you will see the following screen. At this point, you need to create a new group for your server. For that purpose, press 'Create New Group'. |
9. Enter the name, click on your previously created server, press 'Add' and then 'Save Changes'. |
Configuration of Product
10. In order to create and configure a product, go to 'System Settings' → 'Products/Services' → 'Products/Services'. Click on 'Create a New Group'. |
11. Enter your product group name and press 'Save Changes'. |
12. Once you have a product group, you can create a new product. To do so, first click on 'Create a New Product'. |
13. Afterward, choose your product type, enter your product name, choose module and the product group from the dropdown menus. Press 'Continue'. |
14. At this moment, in the product 'Details', you may also check the 'Require Domain' option as providing a domain must be a required step in the service ordering process. Alternatively, you may add an adequate custom field to let the clients enter the domain name there (see step 17). |
15. Now, go to the 'Module Settings' section, choose your previously created server group from the dropdown menu. If you did not set the proper permissions, you will be asked to do it now. |
16. Let's start configuring the product settings finally. Choose whether you wish to allow your clients to change the domain name or not. Toggle the 'Change Domain Name' option and save the changes. |
17. In case you did not mark the 'Require Domain' option in the product 'Details' (step '14th'), move to the 'Custom Fields' tab and create a 'domain|Domain' custom field. Do not forget to mark it as a 'Required Field' and 'Show On Order Form'. Only then your clients will be able to successfully order and use this security tool for their relay domains. |
