Domain contains "xyz" or "download"? Show message on cart.php?a=confdomains

[postcd]

Hello,

 

it seems that clients are able to order premium domains (expensive ones) for regular price. When clients select domain with .xyz or .download extension in the order form (/cart.php?a=confdomains), i would like to show them message like: "Ordering a domain name? Please <a href=http://linktodomainchecker.com>make sure it is not a premium domain</a> as these will not be registered."

 

Please what is the code to add so this message is shown when "xyz" or "download" string is in the domain name?

 

-------

 

Or any way to make WHMCS return Taken/Not available for premium domains?

if you're talking about standard_cart/configuredomains.tpl, then one option would be....

 

                    <div class="sub-heading">
                       <span>{$domain.domain}</span>
                   </div>

                   <div class="text-center">
                       {if $domain.domain|strstr:'.xyz' or $domain.domain|strstr:'.download'}<label>Ordering a domain name?<br>Please <a href=http://linktodomainchecker.com>make sure it is not a premium domain</a> as these will not be registered.</label>{/if}
                   </div>

the top DIV is already in the code, the second DIV is the one that outputs your message based on the domain TLD... obviously, you can tweak that to your own needs.

not via standard whois - that can only tell you if a domain is registered or not, and not if it's premium or it's price.

 

if you wanted to offer premium names, you would need a third-party API/EPP solution - and that will likely depend on one being available for your registrar.

 

the two that spring to mind are LogicBoxes (Resellerclub, Resell.biz and NetEarthOne) and Hexonet.
