Congratulations! Your module is ready for use.

cPanel Tokens Configuration

To enable selling of certificates with Servertastic SSL For cPanel module, configure the token generator using the provisioning module for WHMCS.
Your WHMCS will now bill customers for the ordered certificates and generate tokens, which can be then used by customers to add their certificates in cPanel.

After saving the settings in the 'Certificate Type' dropdown, available certificates will appear.
Note: If you are using a test API key, first make sure that the 'Test Mode' option is enabled.

Then set the remaining options corresponding to the selected certificate:

  • SAN Values - enter how many domain names can be protected with a single certificate.
  • Server Count - enter how many different servers can indicate the domains protected by a given certificate.
  • Management Page Link - Specify the address at which the customer will be able to see the generated certificate directly in the 'Servertastic' panel.
  • Show Order Management Page link - select whether you want your customers to see a direct link to the certificate in the 'Servertastic' panel.

Note: Make sure that SAN and Server vaules are supported by the selected type of certificate. You can find more relevant information on here.

Finally, save the changes and do not forget to generate 'Custom Field' and 'Email Template' .

ST 26.png
After placing an order for a configured product, the customer will have access to the generated 'certificate token' , its 'status' and a direct link to the order at the 'Servertastic' panel (if that option has been enabled).
ST 27.png
The client should now copy the token and complete the certificate configuration directly in the cPanel.

These steps are described on the Servertastic SSL For cPanel wiki.

Tips

1. Apart from the 'ServerTasticToken' , since version 1.3.0 there is no longer directly support for 'Servertastic SSL' module type.

This is due to the removal of the existing API support that allowed this module to work properly.

2. When the certificate expires, a reminder will be sent to the customer to renew it.

This will be done with the use of the main WHMCS cron and the 'Certificate Expiration Reminder' template.

Common Problems

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