Better options for managing available TLDs in WHMCS?

Recommended Posts

I am interesting in figuring out how to do the following. Right now, it appears to only be possible manually, and well, it's a big PITA.

 

1.) Remove ALL available TLDs. Right now hundreds of TLDs are imported and many of them we can not legally sell or are TLDs that are managed by registries like Radix or XYZ which are horrible registries and deserve no money. The process to remove these any many ccTLDs is very time consuming, as each one has to be removed one by one, with the page reloading between each adjustment. There is no option to simply checkmark multiple TLDs for removal.

2.) How can we disable multiple year domain registrations. The problem is, many domains have a special first year price. If a customer orders a domain for 5 years, it's 5x the first year price even if years 2, 3, 4 and 5 are much higher. This is very problematic and a real pain, as such, we can not allow automated domain registrations as customers will take advantage of this flaw and we lose money on the very low margin domain sales.

3.) In fact, is it possible to just simply remove ALL available TLDs at once? Then re-add only the ones we want? This may be easier than figuring out how to do number 1 or 2 above.

The domain / TLD management in WHMCS is very poor as it is, and it makes it very difficult to operate any sort of serious business that sells a lot of domain names like we do.

To remove ALL available TLDs, you should empty the corresponding database table

My understanding of domain pricing doesn't involve any multiplier. Your domain pricing should include unique pricing per registration period. Not only is this the native behavior, but sounds like it prevents the very issue you describe.

Reference first answer.
