Suspend package based on clients location

[gcphost]

Hi WHMCS users!

 

Here is my most recent hook! It is designed to suspend packages ordered by users in certain countries, defined by an array.

 

• A user orders a product defined in an array inside the hook
  
• The users IP address and Country is validated against a list of countrys to deny activation
  
• If the users country is in the list the hook will suspend the users product & notify both the user and admin
  

 

It is a very simple hook and requires minor configuration to operate correctly.

 

$url = ""; # URL to WHMCS , no trailing slash
$urlapi = ""; # URL to WHMCS API file
$username = ""; # Admin username goes here
$password = ""; # Admin password goes here
$packagenum=array("2"); # Array of the packages to validate on
$banned=array("ru", "ro" ,"us"); # Array of lower case country codes to validate on

 

The $packagenum should contain an array of packages you want to validate, for example, package #2 for me is a Free Trial package

 

The $banned should contain an array of country codes, lower case, that match the WHMCS profile fields & the iptolocation fields (they are standard codes), example - ru, ro, us, au, de

 

If there are more questions about the config please reply, everything else seems standard.

 

 

Installing:

1. Download the database script @ http://gamecp.com/iptocountry.sql
   
2. Import the table to your WHMCS database
   
3. Configure the validate_country.php with a list of packages and countrys to ban
   
4. Upload the validate_country.php file to your hooks folder
   
5. Enjoy!

Please use the revised file here, I failed to realize some of the setting variables seem to conflict with the user login system of WHMCS (oops!) - updating the names has fixed the issue.

 

$plug_banned=array("ru", "ro");
$plug_url = ""; # URL to WHMCS API file
$plug_urlapi = ""; # URL to WHMCS API file
$plug_username = ""; # Admin username goes here
$plug_password = ""; # Admin password goes here
$plug_packagenum=array("2");
