What We're Looking For From Our Testers

 

The aim with pre-releases is to have them used in as many different configurations and scenarios as possible. There are so many different ways to leverage the functionality available in WHMCS, and so many modules, customizations and add-ons, that nothing beats real-life testing and feedback.

 

So please, keep us informed, tell us what you've tried, and what the results were, good or bad, and for those who contribute the most, we'll make sure you are recognized for it.

I can't believe bug CORE-10906 is still not fixed in Beta 7.2. I will assume it will not be fixed when 7.2 is released at this point. I will be out of business by then if I don't drop WHMCS....or downgrade back to version 6 so I can offer domains again.

 

Does someone at WHMCS realize how serious this is? I can't sell domains for almost 2 months since I upgraded to 7.

 

It was working correctly in the 7 Beta and it was bugged in the final 7 release. Why can't developers just fix the code to how it was working in the Beta 7 code? I assume developers use versioning so I can't seem to figure out how hard it is to just compare the files...and revert back to how it was on the Beta.

 

This seems like a very simple bug to fix regarding the domain look ups. Without a correct look up, extensions fails, and you can't sell domains.

 

And bug 10934 is not in the list either. A major security risk and still not fixed....

 

One a big feature that is broken, another one for something that worked for years in WHMCS without issues (broken in 7) and now does not and potentially is a big security risks because its allowing duplicated orders to pass trough the ordering system. I will not comment on public for obvious reasons, but it is a security risks for people having some modules and services that think WHMCS is blocking existing orders when its not and can be easily bypassed.
