Bug in .uk domain ordering

[penguin]

I've just noticed a bug when ordering .uk domains - although .co.uk, .org.uk and .me.uk domains do correctly ask for the Legal Type, Company ID number and Registrant Name, this does not happen when ordering a .ltd.uk or .plc.uk.

 

Also, when ordering a .ltd.uk or .plc.uk domain, the company ID number field should then be set to required as this is a specific requirement for registration of these domain types and Nominet will reject the application if this field is not present. Any chance we can get this updated?

Hi,

 

They should be showing for the .ltd.uk and .plc.uk domain types. You can add/check/customise them in the file includes/additionaldomainfields.php

It's not in there - the end of mine looks like:

 

$additionaldomainfields[".co.uk"][] = array(
"Name" => "Registrant Name",
"Type" => "text",
"Size" => "30",
"Default" => "",
"Required" => true,
);

$additionaldomainfields[".org.uk"] = $additionaldomainfields[".co.uk"];
$additionaldomainfields[".me.uk"] = $additionaldomainfields[".co.uk"];

?>

 

I can see how to amend this though now I know it's located in this file, thanks. Can anyone else check their install just in case it's not just me with this missing from mine

I know the changes are pretty straightforward but for anyone who wants it, the following code will correct the .uk domains and also only allow the correct types to register .ltd.uk & .plc.uk domains as these are not available to individuals, etc.

 

At the bottom of your includes/additionaldomainfields.php, add the section in bold:

 

$additionaldomainfields[".org.uk"] = $additionaldomainfields[".co.uk"];
$additionaldomainfields[".me.uk"] = $additionaldomainfields[".co.uk"];

[b]$additionaldomainfields[".ltd.uk"][] = array(
"Name" => "Legal Type",
"Type" => "dropdown",
"Options" => "UK Limited Company,UK Public Limited Company",
"Default" => "UK Limited Company",
);

$additionaldomainfields[".ltd.uk"][] = array(
"Name" => "Company ID Number",
"Type" => "text",
"Size" => "30",
"Default" => "",
"Required" => true,
);

$additionaldomainfields[".ltd.uk"][] = array(
"Name" => "Registrant Name",
"Type" => "text",
"Size" => "30",
"Default" => "",
"Required" => true,
);

$additionaldomainfields[".plc.uk"][] = array(
"Name" => "Legal Type",
"Type" => "dropdown",
"Options" => "UK Limited Company,UK Public Limited Company",
"Default" => "UK Public Limited Company",
);

$additionaldomainfields[".plc.uk"][] = array(
"Name" => "Company ID Number",
"Type" => "text",
"Size" => "30",
"Default" => "",
"Required" => true,
);

$additionaldomainfields[".plc.uk"][] = array(
"Name" => "Registrant Name",
"Type" => "text",
"Size" => "30",
"Default" => "",
"Required" => true,
);
[/b]

?>

almost

 

ltd = UK Limited Company

plc = UK Public Limited Company

 

an LTD *CANNOT* buy a .plc.uk so you can remove UK Limited Company from the dropdown

Good spotting Rob, thanks

I could have sworn I have reported this a couple of times - maybe I just gave up reporting bugs as none of mine are fixed - just closed LOL

 

Seriously though we need the Nominet module working correctly to save registrations failing.

 

Many thanks.

Bug reports are closed when they are fixed so if yours are getting closed, that's a good thing.

The company ID number is required in the above

[DigitalEnigma]

Hi,

 

If a client ordered a .co.uk, .org.uk or .me.uk and chooses LTD as the Legal Type but leaves the company number blank at the moment the order goes throguh but the registration then fails.

 

Could some checking rules be added to prevent this so that the company number is entered when it is required?

[Matt]

Unfortunately the dynamic fields per TLD can't currently do any conditional checking so not possible to enforce rules like that at the moment.

Doesn't help us Hopefully can be fixed soon.
