Hello System returns incorrect information about a domain while checking availability for transfer. When I check domains for transfer it says that every domain is 'Available', except the ones that aren't registered at all and says 'Not Available', the response is true in this case. Domain that is transferring to me from another registrar should be 'Available' as well (and it works fine too), but domain that's transferred to me shouldn't be available for transfer on my site again, cuz how can one transfer from myself to myself, right? Not quite sure how CheckAvailability works for transfer, when it's for register, it uses WHOIS and gets response from it, but when it comes to Transfer, I'm not sure how system works, my theory is that it checks 'tbldomains' table in database to see if domain has 'Active' status in database and avoid double transfer, but it needs to use WHOIS as well to check if domain is registered at all and is available for transfer. Again, not sure if my theory is correct, it's just my guess. WHOIS works fine when it comes to registration and it was working fine for Transfer as well until now, I've not made any changes but somehow CheckAvailability for Transfer stopped working properly. Couldn't find any detailed documentation, any help would be much appreciated!

Hello I'm adding a new registrar and have problem with checking domain availability and transferring domain, cuz registrar doesn't have a proper whois and as they said they don't know how up time it will be in the future, so I need to work the way around it. WHMCS documentation says: my WHMCS version is: 7.1.1 I thought to use CheckAvailability to send requests to registrar service without using whois so I tried it but it doesn't work at all, the system doesn''t even go to the method. is there any way I can check domain availability without whois ? and does it matter what Order Form Template I use ?
