Thanks !Brian for answering.This worked before the update, changed to method post, deosn`t work still.      Also, how important is it to update or not update whmcs ? anything wrong if it`s not updated ? 

<form action="clientarea/domainchecker.php" method="GET">
                        <div class="input-btn--inline">
 <input type="hidden" name="search" value="single">
 <input type="hidden" name="type" value="first">
 <input type="text" class="input--white" name="domain" data-role="input-typewrite" required=""  aria-label="Register a Domain Name" placeholder="Check a domain`s availability …">
                            <button type="submit" role="button">Check It</button>
                        </div>

it still works with v8.1 using Six & standard_cart...

although, if you had captcha enabled on the domainchecker page, then I don't think it would work... if that is what's happening to you, then the simplest solution would be to disable captcha on the domainchecker page (via general settings -> security)

I would say that if you have a working install that you're happy with, you only have to think about updating a) if a feature you need starts to have an issue and can only be fixed by updating or b) an update contains a new feature that you want to use or c) if a security issue becomes known about....

however, if any of those situations occur, then I would suggest testing any update on a dev install because while WHMCS updates can include bug fixes and new features, existing useful features can also be removed - often without any warning (e.g the ability to directly change passwords in the admin area).

I wouldn't suggest ever using a really old version like v4 etc, but if you're still using a version of v7, then I wouldn't personally worry about it.

I had a other form in the header which apparently interfered with all other elements all the pages. Thanks brother.
