Lawrence Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Hi guys, I have made an alternate Free Trials addon for WHMCS. It works like the WHMCS Gold one, except that is managed and configured completely from within WHMCS admin (so no need to manually edit files). This is hopefully easier for non-coders A simple readme.txt is included in the ZIP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a question, will the email use the email template language version according to the user language? Regards, David No, it will simply use the template specified in the addon's settings. I haven't had a need to make it multi-lingual as of yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kriszx Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Does this work with Other/Product Service? I have setup a free package and when I install, it shows no packages. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrence Posted July 4, 2009 Author Share Posted July 4, 2009 Does this work with Other/Product Service?I have setup a free package and when I install, it shows no packages. No. It has only been coded to recognize Shared hosting packages right now. It is very simple to fix though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kriszx Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 I have a question you might be able to answer. When a client wants to upgrade from this to a real package, how can I show the full config options when upgrading? Right now it only shows the Monthly for the current config, but no config options to change. P.S. and thanks for the update. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a client is upgrading from the free package that is set as Monthly to a paid one on a different term (say Quarterly)? I believe the option should be available to change the term when they are going through the upgrade process. The best people to ask about that are Matt and WHMCS, though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the option should be available to change the term when they are going through the upgrade process It already does - has confused us a few time people moving up a package or two, but getting a refund ... its when they switch from annual to quarterly 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljesh Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 I hope you can and will make for us possible to use different language e-mails 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrence Posted July 5, 2009 Author Share Posted July 5, 2009 I hope you can and will make for us possible to use different language e-mails You can. Just simply write the e-mail template in a different language and set it as the reminder 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrence Posted July 5, 2009 Author Share Posted July 5, 2009 It already does - has confused us a few time people moving up a package or two, but getting a refund ... its when they switch from annual to quarterly I think that is more a WHMCS issue than something specific to my addon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact-John Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 what are the cron jobs we are suppose to be running there is no listing in the read me or the addon modules for the code for the cron ( sorry i am new to Cron Jobs and dont know how to create properly) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrence Posted July 5, 2009 Author Share Posted July 5, 2009 (edited) Hi, Yea the documentation is a bit basic right now. I am more of a coder than a writer The best I can say would be to set up cron jobs for removetrial.php and remindtrial.php (in that order) and set them to run: 1 hour apart After the daily WHMCS cron Here are the ones I use (keep in mind i run the WHMCS cron at 12:02 am daily) 0 7 * * * php -q /<path to your whmcs/modules/admin/freetrial/removetrial.php 0 8 * * * php -q /<path to your whmcs/modules/admin/freetrial/remindtrial.php Edited July 5, 2009 by Lawrence fixed cron calls to the php scripts 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
