    Blesta could be used for many businesses - gyms, prechools, HVAC firms -- anyone wanting to build a membership or subscription type revenue stream for their business.

     

    I don't agree with this to be honest, Blesta isn't even that good for what it is built for, that is for hosting companies and lacks many things that it should have. But anyways you will only find out what it lacks after you start using it for sometime :)

  2. Some more information:
    If this payment gateway module is created, then it will be very easy for Blesta developers since this single payment method can support 200 payment methods, and for those methods Blesta would not have to necessarily make the module. In Payssion, you can use each single payment gateway separately, that is how it is in WHMCS Module right now.

  3. The problem is fixed, just looked at some old threads and found the solution.
    I will also mention how to allow HTML and JS in the instruction block.

    Go to: /components/gateways/nonmerchant/offline/views/default/process.pdt

    You will see this in there, so remove this:
     

    <?php
    echo $this->TextParser->encode("markdown", $this->Html->ifSet($meta['instructions']));
    ?>

    Add this now:
     

    <?php
    echo $this->Html->ifSet($meta['instructions']);
    ?>

    A sample of your js file?

    Normally you should pass amount and id for the most of gateway and this cant be manual !

    It is not a JS file though, i am just adding a JS code which is "Pay now" button in order to open the payment page on the client area automatically. I just need to know how we can allow use of JS & HTML in instruction block.

  5. Hello,

    I have just found a payment gateway that allows the client's to use many payment methods such as webmoney, bitcoin, paysafecard together.
    However the only problem is the automation and again the module is available for WHMCS but not Blesta.

    Payment gateway link: https://www.payssion.com/

    API Documentation: https://payssion.com/en/docs/

    This payment gateway looks very useful specially for hosting companies.

    you are totally wrong, the cpanel accept any true full qualified domain even if is a sub-domain, so in cpanel part is working, now it should a mechanism to allow only some domains to be the main domain and make the regex and the control of what we should accept as entered domain, this part should be from order form . all the competitor has the same logic and doing it as i described before . if i have time i can do a template order that will do what you want from the order plugin without touching any core files, but i'm sorry, i don't have free time to do it, if you want we can quote something for you or we collect some sponsoring and we will bring the work freely to the community .

    Well whatever, i do not have a lot of knowledge for it but i needed that feature for my hosting. Since we have got many votes, Paul has said that he will mark this as planned in a week.

    i prefer if this should be a universal setting not related to a module, let say i will add the main domain (and may be  a list of 3 or more) and if activate the option to offer free subdomain, then the order form show a new option for selecting  a sub-domain with the selecting a generic domain .

     

    If its not connected to cPanel, then the system may not be automatic. I guess. Make sure you guys vote for it at requests.

    Subdomains can be ordered, but you can't specify what the primary domain is and force that. It would require a modification of the module. Is that what you mean? You have testhost.com, and you want people to be able to order whatevertheywant.testhost.com? What module are you using?

    Correct, like testhost.com is my domain, so if someone doesn't have a domain, they can choose this.

    BlestaStore: Why the heck you are comparing lowend (and also free one) billing system with Blesta? And by the way I would advise you to rethink the way you are talking with the people who are actually PAYING for Blesta. After all, we are the one who are pushing Blesta and WE are the one who support this project! 

    I didn't heard you complaining when you take my money right? ;)

    As long Blesta is targeting the hosting industry it should cover everything! End of the story.
    Still waiting the native affiliate system which can be done in one day.
    Still waiting for better coupon system... needless to say the amount of $ we have lose .

    There is no reason deffending Blesta from those who are using it....


    @Paul I see no happy end with such attitute !

    Yes true, it should have everything that hosting company needs.
    And yes, i agree with that we need affiliate system too which is very necessary. I am not sure why they are recommending me to buy from third-party place. This plugin should be officially made by Blesta. Coupon system is also not good, due to that i am not even able to create coupons since i cannot choose the terms which is very bad. Coupons are actually useless in Blesta.

    Blesta works better when they are all on the same page and training someone to work at their speed and quality doesn't come lightly, you can hire hundreds of developers but if they aren't connecting or working to your high standards and quality then you have to go back and re-do it. And then you become a competitor to Blesta who patches up silly mistakes and fixes for features which have been broken due to lack of QA testing.

    This is very wrong thinking that the software would not run better when there are more developers. Take a look at some examples, big softwares. They are made by hundreds of developers and it is true that they do make mistakes, and then those bugs are fixed immediately. When you just don't hire the developers and sit behind, nothing will work. It will take sometime for them to get trained but at least we will get the result after all.

    There's 3 developers at Blesta. You can speed up developer hire developers who don't stick to the rules and quality and talk to you etc and then yourself and me would be complaining that the code has gone to shit and buggy as hell. Do you want that? No then there you go. You forget a competitor has loads of staff and their software is buggy as hell and insecure with their own PHP Global function PHP took out because they are that lazy.

    How come you are so sure that they will not stick to the rules, they will not do quality work? This is absolutely wrong. Don't other company owners hire other developers? Then all their development becomes buggy? Never heard any incident like that. When you hire professional, you won't find anything wrong. When you don't take the risk, you cannot do anything. A new developer will make mistake in starting but it doesn't mean that he will KEEP making those mistakes. Won't they get used to it? Forget about the competitor, Blesta is already so far away from the competitor, at least they take the risk of hiring developers. Whatever you are gonna say to the competitor, it is still ahead, at least they are successful and are leading in this market.

    I know loads of people who use Blesta for selling domains and hosting and it works fine, what they do want though and many others like yourself is a way to set a renewal price and transfer price and more features but they DON'T stop you selling domains. So yes it works for hosting companies, hell I used it for my web hosting business back in the day.

    You don't seem to understand the fact that Blesta is made for all type of companies. For large companies it is very hard. And more to include, the domain system is more similar to Boxbilling which i remember using, at first time when i used Blesta, it wasn't even able to sync the renewal date. And you know what? Boxbilling isn't even updated for last three years, so makes me feel that i am back to Boxbilling again.

    You can't win everything. You do the domain manager people complain about the other stuff like lack of modules / gateways unlike their competitors. You do the modules / gateways then people complain about the domain manager. You can't win so they are doing both.

    Again, this problem is only due to lack of developers.

    Paul and the guys had two choices:

    1. Concentrate on revamping the system to support the new domain management system and then doing the domain management system as-well in one update which would take time and mean the next update would take a while to come.

    2. Continue with the updates and improvements and do the domain management stuff side by side so both get done.

    People moan about the domain management but people moan about lack of updates more, so the guys went with option 2.

    This doesn't make sense to be honest, instead of working slowly, Blesta must have hired some new developers. I guess Blesta is a serious company and it is supposed to have many developers. I am not sure why but it seems like Blesta doesn't want to hire more developers, just because they don't want to give them money right? If you talk about the "Well made updates, with no security breaches etc." then don't say that it has to take time. Professional developers do exist, and they only work when you are giving them proper money. So if they had more developers, they would be able to fulfill both the choices at same time. Sorry for being rude, but i feel that one developer can't just run this whole company if they want to compete with competitors. On an index page of Blesta, it is written that it is a perfect solution for hosting companies but forgetting the fact that domain management system should be proper since they both work together perfectly. Focusing on other modules which are not actually compulsory to be used by people, but domain management is something that every hosting company uses.

    Package/Product based revenue reporting is coming :blesta: 

    It is very necessary to have it. In which version is it gonna come?

    Just a note, but if you are familiar with mysql Blesta allows you to create custom reports in Billing -> Reports.  An example for exporting a list of clients for a given package ID is described here. 

     

    Yes i checked it, but takes sometime. I just want to see the statistics immediately. :)

    You are right, but some modules/plugins we do it because we use it or we get others that sponsor it and allow us to make it available for the community . like "clean unpaid order" and "late fee" and "knowledge base" in the past .

    Yes, that is good too. But you know when there are two plugins, only one will be mostly used. And of course Blesta's official plugin will have more priority so your plugin may go unused which is not good because you will put your hard work. It would be better to have another module instead of having one same. Thats just my opinion.

    we already begin the work in affiliate system, but we have stopped the work to some obstacle related to the order plugin, not sur if @Paul can help in this and make some basic change to the order plugin to make it read the affiliate_id and and add a field for it , this will speedup the work and make us release the plugin soon .

    but anyway, we have found another alternative without touching any core files, but it need more time and staff to complete .

     

    I guess you don't need to make an affiliate module anymore since Blesta has marked it "Planned".

  15. Hello,

    As Blesta doesn't have WHMPHP module, i use normal cPanel module of Blesta and upgrade the account to reseller after the order is activated.
    Now whenever i try to suspend the order, i get an error "Permission Denied", so on renewal too, it will miss the date and an account will not be suspended which can be a very big problem.

    However Paul told me to create a thread in this section so people and soon he will be able to help out about modification of built-in cPanel module to send an email to specific address whenever suspension of cPanel account is failed.
