Management

Once Emoji For WHMCS is installed and connection configured, you can create/update your ticket departments and begin using them.

Each ticket department you create in the Emoji will be available for your customers in the WHMCS client area.

Settings

WHMCS

Before you start your actual work on support tickets with Emoji For WHMCS, move again to 'Addons' → 'Emoji' → 'Ticket Settings'.

This section of the addon allows an easy and comfortable management of the way the tickets are displayed in your client area, their visibility, sorting etc.

EM 15.png
In the first box 'Options', you may enable some basic settings that will be applied to tickets view in the client area.
Let's now discuss their functionality in details:
  • Template Name - if you decide to change your current template in your WHMCS, then change it here as well. Your custom templates are also available
  • Allowed Departments - select which of your 'conversation fields types' from Emoji shall be available as departments in the WHMCS ticket system
  • Type - choose the default Emoji department type for exported tickets from WHMCS system
EM 16.png
Next to the 'Options' box you will find a box where you can assign some colors to a specific ticket status.

Click on the field to choose a color from the palette of colors or type in the number of the color you like.
Tickets of each status will be marked with selected colors on homage.

Remember to save the changes.

Export

Our module allows to export data gathered in your WHMCS, more specifically, all the users and tickets generated before the installation of the product.

Read the below points to learn what data can be synchronized with Emoji and what are the possible means of such synchronizations.

Users

The first option offered by our module is the export of users from WHMCS to Emoji, proceed to 'Clients Export' .

Here you will find a list of all the users who exist in your WHMCS and have not been synchronized with Emoji yet.

Now, you can either manually export all of them from the list or choose only a few.
Check boxes next to the users you wish to export and press 'Export' button as presented on the screen.

If some users have been already exported from WHMCS to Emoji, they will be marked as Exported on the list.
All users newly added to WHMCS will be automatically synchronized with Emoji.

Tickets

The next option offered by our module is the export of tickets from WHMCS to Emoji, proceed to 'Tickets Export'.
You will see here a list of all tickets which exist in your WHMCS and have not been synchronized with Emoji yet.

Now, you can manually export all of the tickets available on the list or choose only some of them.
Check boxes next to the tickets you are going to export and press the 'Export' button as marked on the screen.

If a ticket has already been exported from WHMCS to Emoji, it will now have the Exported status.
All tickets newly created to WHMCS will be automatically synchronized with Emoji.

Support Tickets

Move to your client area. There, on your homepage, is a 'Recent Support Tickets' box.

You will find the latest tickets available in your system. The visible tickets are marked with colors related to their current status.

Now, we will create a ticket message to show the flow. Just like in case of standard WHMCS support ticket, choose department, fill out the form and submit the ticket.

A new ticket, sent with Emoji For WHMCS module, is immediately visible in the Emoji admin area.

Tips

1. The module supports only the WHMCS built-in ticket system.

Separate ticketing systems such as Zendesk, Kayako or Freshdesk are not supported.

Update Instructions

Essential guidance through the process of updating the module is offered here.

Keep in mind there is a quick and easy option in our client area that will let you upgrade the license of your module to an open source version at any time - and at a lower price!
To take advantage of it, simply use the License Upgrade button located on the product's page and a discounted invoice will be generated automatically.

Common Problems

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