Or have a BlestaTracker plugin built into Blesta. and then maybe sold for $xxx.xx haha.

hmm...I guess in that case I'll stop working on my super sekrit bootstrapped Blesta > Joomla bridge...until 3.2

It's possible yes, but probably not likely for your bootstrap conversion. We're planning to do this ourselves for 3.2 and it's likely we'll go a slightly different direction than you have.

You can get the Proxmox module from my other thread.

CORE-494 - Add client ability to reset password for cPanel, DirectAdmin, Interworx services.

I haven't used cpanel extended yet, but it's shocking that it can't do it...seems like a pretty basic/standard feature for an extended module
 
+2

That's very strange, because I took a SQL backup immediately after installing Blesta.  After my last trial run I restored that database.  I'll delete the databases, reinstall, and try again.  Hopefully that's all it is!
 
EDIT:  Sheesh.  That was it.  So much for my mad cPanel skills.  Everything is fine, nothing to see here.

Ticket status is fixed for the next rev. We're working on adding diagnostics, and looking at ways to improve runtime.

I've noticed one thing around here and that is that everyone seems to have the a module, plugin, importer, feature that they need.  Sometimes there is this insinuation that the devs aren't doing enough or list of things which they 'should' be doing.  They can't just drop everything on focus on just one client with their specific needs alone (show me one company that does?).  Mind you that it's a client management and billing system.  It has an open modules/plugin system which means you can develop or have someone develop your modules.  You can also have your own importer build.  But if you're going to wait around for the complimentary modules and importers that come at no cost to you then a little patience are in order.  Especially if your going to critique them about their so-called 'behind-the-scenes problems' as someone described it.  If it was so easy and you want get migrated so badly why wouldn't you just build it yourself?  Nothing is stopping you.
 
Blesta is build with quality in mind and this takes time.  The community couldn't be more helpful.
 
I don't mean help this topic run away but good grief!  It had to be said.  

I don't have a WHMCS install at the moment so I'm not sure what the actual table/column is so you will need to change those to the correct name...but this should work:
update tablename set clientemailcolumn = your@email.com of course test this on the test database, and not the live database
 
and this isn't always an issue, but depending on your database/phpmyadmin settings...if it doesn't allow you to use that (some settings prevent using a query to change all records in a column), use the one below that will make it think it's not affecting everything even though it actually is
 
update tablename set clientemailcolumn = your@email.com where 1 = 1

I've just gone back over this topic a couple of times and some of the posts are shocking me with the lack of patience and damn right rudeness some are displaying here I would like to remind people the WHMCS Migrator is still in "BETA" also seen those asking the same stuff which has been address previously I feel strongly the Blesta guys need to add a basic F.A.Q for those moving from WHMCS to Blesta.

Haha mate, on WHT he's slated every single one. So not much for him to choose from.

The system isn't garbage.  With a few hiccups, it works great.  Far better than our experiences with WHMCS or PBA.  Patches are being released rapid fire to nail down bugs and suggestions.  You've got one of the lead devs personally helping you troubleshoot your issue, which may even ultimately turn out to be a problem on your end.  And that's not good enough for you?
 
Sorry that some brand new software had a few bugs, I guess.
 
You may not be aware of this, but your posts are coming off as petulant and entitled.  If you don't want to actually work through the issue, there are other billing systems to choose from.

What specific type of documentation are you looking for?  What's missing?  I've always considered their documentation to be quite detailed.
 
You are using: http://docs.blesta.com/display/dev/Overview?

For me, I'm not sure how much I would use it.
The thing to me is this, I might only use it 3 times a year but those few times I did use it I would be thinking "things like this is why I love blesta."
I'm gonna say +1 not because I would use it often, but because it would make blesta a sleeker piece of software.

We've talked about a package clone ability, drop you into the create a new package form with all the details copied in. It's a good idea, any more +1's?!

I think people are starting to realize that it's time to move on, and we're grateful for everyone that decides to make Blesta their billing application of choice.

You need to make sure you have coupons enabled for each order form as well:
 
Packages > Order Forms
 

 
 
It shows as a link on the order form 1st and 2nd page, once you get to the 3rd step it won't show anymore and you'll need to go back to enter it.  It's under the total/subtotal on the right hand side, when you click the link it will open up the field for entering the code.
 

I checked around and didn't see another feature request about this so I wanted to bump it.
 
I've been a strong proponent of Blesta since the v3 Beta, love lots of things about it...however, I can't say that I love the coupon system.  It needs to be WAY more robust...and hopefully soon.
 
I know for me personally, coupons are a major factor in the hosting industry (as well as other industry's/services that could use Blesta)...and only being able to give permanent discounts, or single term discounts is a huge killer for me.
 
At the moment, during my relauch, I'd love to be able to give 75% off the first 3 months, or 20% off for life...something like that...but as the system stands...I can't do that.
 
CubicWebs idea is pretty much spot on as a start, but having even more than that...an awesome, robust coupon system would be nice.
 
----------
 
Coupons should be able to have one, some, or all of the below options, the admin can choose...and of course put settings for each one
 
Percentage/Amount/term discount (buy 3 months get one month free...etc)
Single Time Period or recurring
Uses
Coupons restricted to term length, not just specific package (have 2 coupons for the same package, one works for 1-3 months terms, other works for 6-12 month terms as an example)
 
While I don't think this should be #1 priority (though I do think the basic system Cubic mentioned should be very high on the priority list for the hosting industry), I think having such a robust coupon system would be "another" huge selling point for blesta.

I would like a coupon tier please in the future, where we can make a coupon just for a month or a year. Or even valid for a month or a year. Maybe a tick box feature with the day, month, year, one time. Or even a auto generator so it pulls what values they are.
 
So maybe one package has this:
 
[  ] 2 day
[  ] 4 month
[  ] 12 month
[  ] 1 year
[  ] one time
 
Because at the moment if a user say wants to buy hosting from you. They find a coupon for 60% off your package. But accidentally clicks on the yearly price. They enter the coupon and BAM they now get 60% off your yearly price. Even though it's not valid for it.
 
Just a little inside of my feature request

You need to make sure you have coupons enabled for each order form as well:
 
Packages > Order Forms
 

 
 
It shows as a link on the order form 1st and 2nd page, once you get to the 3rd step it won't show anymore and you'll need to go back to enter it.  It's under the total/subtotal on the right hand side, when you click the link it will open up the field for entering the code.
 

The "From:" email is set on a per email basis, so you will need to open each individual email template to update the address.
 
Settings > Company > Email Templates
(or just throw this on the end of your blesta domain: /admin/settings/company/emails/templates/)

Looks good. 1 minor improvement that could be made is to remove the redundant last three order plugin endif and if-statements:
{% endif %}{% if plugins.order %}

This is one area that I feel Blesta is lacking...the inability to choose different packages from one order form (though I think they are working on that functionality).
 
In the mean time, another way to handle this would be instead of having just one order link on the portal page, adding more in.  If you did something like below, it would add in a link for domains, shared hosting, and reseller hosting, enterprise hosting (or whatever you have for your company).  Can edit in as many as you want...you'll just need to make/get some images if you want different ones for each order type.
 
In order to implement this:
 
Go to Settings > Plugins > Manage Portal
 
then click the "source" button in the top left of the WYSIWYG editor and replace everything with the below code:
(you will need to edit the direct links to each of your order forums, the example below is for my site...you'll have different links)
 
<div class="description"> <p> Thank you for visiting, please use the links below to either register an account, place an order, or contact support.</p> </div> <div class="half section"> <div class="icon account"> <h1> <a href="{client_url}login/">My Account</a></h1> <p> Have an account with us? You can login here to manage your account.</p> </div> </div> {% if plugins.order %} <div class="half section"> <div class="icon account"> <h1> <a href="{blesta_url}order/main/index/register">Register</a></h1> <p> Create an account, which you can use to contact support, download items, or purchase services.</p> </div> </div> {% endif %} <div class="clear">  </div> {% if plugins.support_manager %} <div class="half section"> <div class="icon support_manager"> <h1> <a href="{client_url}plugin/support_manager/client_tickets/add/">Support</a></h1> <p> Need help? You can open a trouble ticket here.</p> </div> </div> {% endif %} {% if plugins.download_manager %} <div class="half section"> <div class="icon download_manager"> <h1> <a href="{client_url}plugin/download_manager/">Downloads</a></h1> <p> Visit the download area. You may need to be logged in to access certain downloads.</p> </div> </div> {% endif %} <hr /> {% if plugins.order %} <div class="half section"> <div class="icon order"> <h1> <a href="{blesta_url}order/main/index/shared">Order Shared Plans</a></h1> <p> Visit the order form to sign up and purchase a Shared Plan.</p> </div> </div> {% endif %}{% if plugins.order %} <div class="half section"> <div class="icon order"> <h1> <a href="{blesta_url}order/main/index/enterprise">Order Enterprise Plans</a></h1> <p> Visit the order form to sign up and purchase an Enterprise Plan.</p> </div> </div> {% endif %}{% if plugins.order %} <div class="half section"> <div class="icon order"> <h1> <a href="{blesta_url}order/main/index/reseller">Order Reseller Plans</a></h1> <p> Visit the order form to sign up and purchase a Reseller Plan.</p> </div> </div> {% endif %} {% if plugins.order %} <div class="half section"> <div class="icon order"> <h1> <a href="{blesta_url}order/main/index/domains">Order Domains</a></h1> <p> Visit the order form to sign up and purchase a Domain name.</p> </div> </div> {% endif %} It will end up looking like this:
 

Love it mate, thanks for sharing will help alot of people.
