OFF TOPIC, but real facts in this buisness, related with the OP question:
 
vacation???? what is that name? LOL
 
I personaly dont know what is a real vacation in almost 17 years (before I openned my buisness) never rest more than 2 days, and I cant shutdown my smartphone to check emails or check if servers are ok more than 30 minuts LOL its an habit, a really bad habit but i cant stop doing it
 
And now that im a father since 2012, my child complets my rest by playing with im lol

Testing, learning, testing, and only after PRODUCTION?

You could make a plugin to do all of this. Plugin registers the cron, and allows the X,Y,Z values for each of those options to be set.

if you want default currency be IRD, please do it here:  here admin area & menu: /company/currencies/setup/
 
On previous picture it's was USD your default (the default currency is the one you can not remove)
 
Next Do manual cron, here: menu : /settings/system/automation/
 your default currency will stay at 1 (like it should stay)
and other currencies will have their own rate

if you want default currency be IRD, please do it here:  here admin area & menu: /company/currencies/setup/

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you create one package per price range per example, then if you ever need to change the price, you can simply untick a domain in one package and tick it in another, no? For promotions you could create a new package with just that domain. not certain of what will happen with existing orders (activated service), because it's like part of package migration, best you try with existing service (activated domain) how the switch will happen.
 
and imagine in the same range price you could work with different registrar modules, but because you can only use one registrar module by package...so at the end what will be the more flexible for you? and TEST IT.
 
 
By the way I was prefering full domain extension separation by package, because my business need on Blesta is to setup a domain registry (not registar), so even the description of extension (package) , will be specific VS create package by group of price of domain extensions.

i wil fix it this weekend , it need a thumbail class to be adjusted to the div .

if the service is suspended , exist a option for this .

+ added bootsrap theme css
2.1.2
+ added payment botton
2.1.1
+ fixed logo design
2.0.1
+ added link to return to client view
+ remove language difinition from invoiceinfo function output .
2.0.0
+ fixed attach invoice in email in pdf format
+ recode the class to a new handle mime type .
1.5.0

+ added download PDF botton .
+ improuve code structure to be more flexible , now, you can almost control all the aspect from the template file .
1.0.0
+ fix language vars.
+ cleanup code .


ANY BUG, feedback post it here , we can improuve the work .
as always the installtion steps is :
1 - download the file http://blesta-addons.com/plugin/store/main/item/6/ . for new release .
2 - upload the html_invoice folder inside components/invoice_templates  directory .
3 - goto settings & Invoice Customization , and select html_invoice , then select in type HTML/PDF .
4 - enjoy the content .

if you want to use your own template file , just go inside directory template , you will find the default one , copy it and change name , and change the html output as you want , then change the template used html_invoice.php

from
 
private static $template = "default" ; to
 
private static $template = "you_template" ; the magic here is you can use your own html template for invoices , just go inside directory template , you will find the default one , copy it and change name , and change the html output as you want , then change the templated used in Invoice Customization setting .

 
Best regards

Yes, conversion date is also fine, as well as "Close" date, because when converting proforma to a real invoice (when payment is received) it becomes closed.

Thxs to Tyson about explanation on Cron task Lock in Blesta.
 
Just to share, as my concern was to have a safe 2 mins cron frequency, (my above previous script & lock was not good)
I finally found more deadly easy solution using solo, and that work fine on blesta cron:
 
http://timkay.com/solo/
 
Naturally this beats working with lock/PID files, because an open port is directly tied to a running process, and chances of inconsistency and having to detect and cleanup orphaned PID files, are zero.
 
and regarding 2mins cron frequency VS 5mins recommended by default, I'm not a believers it will consume a lot of resources, if we should avoid using php resources, we should be also afraid when customers load website pages as powered all by php.
 
Solo, need you have Perl installed on your server
 
to create the solo file from console (if you do not have console access ? see my below post):
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

curl -q http://timkay.com/solo/solo -o /usr/local/bin/solo \
  && chmod a+x $_
 
 
CREATE THE CRONJOB:
-------------------------------
 
open crontab as root in console(if your user is not root just change root to your-user):
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
crontab -u root -e
 
 
Next ad this line in crontab:
--------------------------------
*/2 * * * * /usr/local/bin/solo -port=5001 php /PATH-TO-BLESTA/index.php cron
 
 
OR
 
Create the cron job using your server control panel menu
 
 
N.B.: Depending of your OS, use:
 
*/2 * * * * /usr/local/bin/solo -port=5001 php /PATH-TO-BLESTA/index.php cron
 
OR
 
*/2 * * * * /usr/local/bin/solo -port=5001 /usr/bin/php /PATH-TO-BLESTA/index.php cron
 
 
 
N.B.:
----
As root you can use any available port above 1023. The maximum allowed port number is 65535,  but use only one port by cron.
In above case, cron frequency is 2 mins.
 
Next,
--------
Check in Database Table cron_task_runs table, take note of what are the task_id you want to speed the cron interval.

In my case it was task_id : 4, 5, 18 as I want new ordered service when paid, be fast activated

And open Table task_id in database, and edit row where task_id & company_id you want to speed interval, & update interval, In my case I have updated all above task_id to interval 2 . (2mins)
 
 
--------------------------
Ref.:  http://kvz.io/blog/2012/12/31/lock-your-cronjobs/
 
The Flow
Can it open your port ?             so it's will be starting Blesta cron script Can't open your port?Never mind, Blesta cron script is probably still running, will try again next time Naturally this beats working with lock/PID files, because an open port is directly tied to a running process, and chances of inconsistency and having to detect and cleanup orphaned PID files, are zero.
------------------------

1. send notify via email about cron task locked or stalled (staff member can try to fix the problem, if present, asap); I just created a poor man's script that's work fine for that, I will be posting it tomorrow in the contribution forum section.

Cron tasks in Blesta are locked down already to disallow them to be run again when they are currently running. There is no need to write a temp file to perform this check. You may want to look into better implementations of semaphores for your other projects.
 
The 5 minute interval only means that it will take at most 5 minutes for the action to take place (assuming the cron is running normally). You could change this to 1 minute, and then have your cron run every minute, but as you mentioned, that could bring up other issues.

in my case, only having one method available,
 
I just removed these info from  this file /app/views/client/MY-THEME/client_services_service_infobox.pdt

You can use the css / js / php / html toolbox for this at the moment but it's coming soon as CORE-1467.

I created CORE-1556 a couple weeks ago to address this. It will ensure the billing overview widget is installed by default, on the primary staff user upon installation. It's very easy to overlook when it's not there by default.

Gateway Language file.
components/gateways/nonmerchant/paypal_payments_standard/language/en_us/paypal_payments_standard.php

Agreed. Please see CORE-1573
