CP49.1.png

Assignment of Configurable Options To Application Autoinstall

Your customers will definitely love this functionality! With its help you can let them decide which application they would like to install on their new cPanel account.

And that's very easy. While placing an order your customer chooses application and along with account creation this very application will be installed on the account.
There is nothing else you need to do. Application will be instantly ready to use! Ok, lets setup this feature.
Go to 'cPanel Extended Functions' , press on 'Install Apps' , tick 'Install App' and 'Assign To Configurable Options' and choose 'Auto Installer' .
Click on floppy disk icon to download list of app.

CP52.png
These are the names of values that you can enter in configurable options fields which we will configure in the next step.

For example, if you would like to set up 4images in your applications list, you will need to enter value '4images 1.7.11' .
If you will make a mistake with the name, the autoinstall will not work.
Now, when you know what values should be entered in configurable options for particular applications, we can proceed further.

CP53.png
Go to your WHMCS → 'Setup' → 'Products/Services' → 'Configurable Options' and press 'Create a New Group' .
CP54.png
Enter 'Group Name' by your choice, select product you want to assign configurable options to, then press 'Save Changes' .
CP55.png
Now click on 'Add New Configurable Option' .
CP56.png
This moment is very important. As an 'Option Name' , you have to enter 'Installation App' . In other case entire functionality will not work.

Here you can set up as many applications as you want. To do so enter the name of value e.g. 'Wordpress 3.7.1' and press 'Save Changes' .
Repeat this as many times as you need and do not forget to set the 'Option Type' to 'Dropdown' .

CP57.png
As you can see on the following screen we decided to offer our customers 5 applications.

When you finish adding applications press 'Save Changes' and 'Close Window' .

CP58.png
Afterwards go to 'cPanel Extended Functions' , tick 'Assign To Configurable Options' and choose 'Applications' from a dropdown menu.

Please note that you can have more configurable options groups. Press 'Save Changes' and that's it. You have just successfully assigned configurable options to application autoinstall.
Lets check out what your customers are going to see in their client area while placing the order.

CP59.png
As you can see a dropdown menu with our previously set up applications has shown up.
CP60.png

Assignment of Custom Fields To Application Autoinstall

Now when you know how to allow your customers to choose which application they would like to install on their account, we can proceed one step further.

Until that momemt applications would have been installed with use of default details like e.g. directory names or database name. Those details are sent to each customer's email.
Recommended and safer solution is allowing your customers to choose their own installation paths, usernames etc. Lets see how can we do that.
At the beginning go to 'Product/Services' , find your product connected with cPanel Extended and enter 'Custom Fields' category.
You will need to add 9 custom fields.
First 8 are: 'Directory' , 'Database Name' , 'Database Username' , 'Database Password' , 'Table Prefix' , 'Site Name' , 'Site Description' and 'Language' .
Remember to set the field type as 'Text Box' , tick 'Required Field ' and 'Show on Order Form' .
Everything is shown on the screen below.

CP61.png
Last field is 'Auto Update' , set it as 'Drop Down' , enter 'Yes, No' into 'Select Options' and tick 'Required Field ' and 'Show on Order Form' .
File:CP61.1.png
Once you added all the custom fields they will appear while placing an order.

Voila! Now your customers can personalize each application without necessity of installing it.

CP62.png

Custom Softaculous Application Language

We will show you how to quickly set custom language for Softaculous web applications.

For this purpose you need to add new custom field for your product. Field should be called 'Language' .

CP63.png
Afterwards go to your 'Products/Services' and check whether the 'Language' field appeared.

In order to change default applications language for certain account enter here an appropriate value.

CP64.png
From now on new field will appear for your customers as well. While installing new application they can choose desired language by entering value into the field.

Complete list of language codes you will find here.

File:CP65.png

Management of Existing Products

You can easily use cPanel Extended module with your already configured cPanel products.

To do so change type of servers and module names of products from 'Cpanel' to 'CpanelExtended' .
Additional information about how to correctly configure your servers and products you can find at points 8-16 in 'Installation and Configuration' section.

Management of Billing

When you combine cPanel Extended For WHMCS with Advanced Billing For WHMCS, you will be able to set up additional billing options.

Tips

CP70.png

CP71.png
3. If you would like to use the cPanel/WHM Import Utility with cPanel Extended products, you will need to switch products type to 'Cpanel'.

Afterwards you can successfully use the import script. After finishing the import, simply switch back the products type to 'CpanelExtended'.

Common Problems

1. If after install, you will get an ionCube encoder problem (wrong version), please open a support ticket.

We will provide you with different version of the module encrypted with the older version of ionCube.

2. SQL Issue: When you move your WHMCS system to another domain and you import your SQL database you may get an error with missing tables or fields.

An example of such an error can be: "Unknown column 's.change_password' in 'field list' ".
If so please deactivate and activate your module and try once again. If it still doesn't solve your problem, please download your addon module from your clintarea and re install it.

3. If you have problems with connection make sure that both ports 2082 and 2083 are open.
4. After you change language of the module, your Ajax notifications might not work correctly. Solution to this is encoding language file in UTF-8 (without BOM).
5. No results to display: Connection problem: This problem occurs when connection to the cPanel server is not configured properly.
Reason: Values inside the field/s 'Hostname' , 'IP Address' , 'Username' , 'Password' , 'Type' and/or 'Access Hash' is/are incorrect.

Solution: Verify provided details and test connection through pressing 'WHM' button.

6. No results to display: Wrong hostname or ip value: This problem occurs when connection to the cPanel server is not configured properly.
Reason: Values inside the field/s 'Hostname' or 'IP Address' is/are are in the wrong format.

Solution: Verify provided details and test connection through pressing 'WHM' button.

7. No results to display: User or domain not found.
Reason: Account with the specified domain name doesn't exist on the server.

Solution: Make sure that customer's details in your WHMCS system contain specified domain name or create a new account.

8. No results to display: Wrong username value
Reason: Account with the specified username doesn't exist on the server.

Solution: Make sure that customer's details in your WHMCS system contain specified username or create a new account.

9. No results to display: Access denied
Reason: Account already exists on the server but access to the server has been lost due to changed server group, changed server details or block by e.g firewall.

Solution: Make sure that connection to your server is working properly and it's not being blocked. Additionally make sure that your server group is set up correctly.

10. User parameter is invalid or was not supplied
Reason: Account exists on the server but username is incorrect.

Solution: Make sure that customer's account username is same in both your WHMCS system and your WHM.

11. When you get 'cURL Error : Maximum (20) redirects followed' while trying to install new application, this indicates the problem with your cPanel theme.

To solve the problem log in to your WHMCS, go to 'Module Setttings' of your product, find the field 'cPanel Theme' and make sure that the entered name is correct.

12. When you have problems with connection, check whether your SELinux or firewall is not blocking ports.
