Yeah it was good. Cody and Tyson wanted to stay in California and work on Blesta 3.3, so I brought my wife. I stopped by the cPanel/WHMCS booth for 10 min or so and talked with Matt and their team. The responsive bootstrap interface is something they pretty much had to do, and it looks alright.. overall probably a net positive for them. Don't forget, we did that already with 3.2 -- they can follow the leader.

Due to the impending closure of our business we have decided to release our custom developed SolusVM module for free. It contains a number of extended features such as: ISO support, PAE, Boot Priority, TUN/TAP This is provided with no support. If you would like a very competent programmer to develop this further and very reasonable rates, you may contact Eric (secforus_ehansen) who helped develop this module Download Link: https://mega.co.nz/#!rwRFXRBT!zycC8Stn2Yrjp3fGyDMrtGPxZYiN0kxENMpQ8wFsSug We welcome Blesta to include these extended features into the standard module. This module is a drop in replacement for the module that ships with Blesta and can be used without any additional changes or modifications to Blesta. Services created with the standard SolusVM module will work with this module.

Security through obscurity is generally a bad idea. You can't assume because a user has a random username that they are any more secure than someone that uses the first 8 characters of their domain name. As the wiki article states, "It is analogous to a homeowner leaving the rear door open, because it cannot be seen by a would-be burglar." Beef up the requirements for your customers' passwords. I think cPanel requires at least an 8-character password, which is too short. If you let Blesta generate one, it'll be 10-14 characters. Of course, users can change it themselves in their cPanel account, but it's ultimately their choice on how secure they want to be with their logins. You can also educate them on this importance to deter them from bad security practices, kind of the give-a-man-a-fish/teach-a-man-to-fish argument.

Hi, I will buy blesta anyway as I have a major issue with WHMCS and they don't help at all. Thanks.

Yeah, but our flight leaves around 3pm. Afternoon it's all exhibits and we covered the exhibit hall yesterday in like 3 hours.

I replied to your email with a trial key you can use. Caught me just in time -- heading to the airport soon.

We are likely going to be updating the SolusVM module so that you can use a configurable option for clients to select the OS template. The plus side is that you can enter whatever friendly looking name you want for the templates. The bad side is that you'll have to do so for all the templates you want to be available. Pulling them automatically from SolusVM's API would be the simplest way to ensure they are all available as soon as they are added to SolusVM.. but this should be a good solution in the interim.

The USA beat Ghana yesterday, people were watching it in the hotel here in Miami (At Hostingcon) and it got pretty loud when the USA scored point 2 of the game and won 2-1. Some people on the plane from Los Angeles to Miami were continuing their flights to Brazil for the World Cup. Sounds like fun!

I did this for my own html emails, but by request, I'm happy to share it with everyone for their own use. Again, credit to LicenseCart for the email tags setup that he shared here. Note: You will need to locate the "INSERT YOUR...." statements that I added to help you add your links and images. I did not spend more than 5 minutes doing the editing for sharing, so you might find that I missed a few things you need to personalize. This is a really stripped down html file that will likely not load locally if you try. However, if you paste in the email template (using the Source) option in the editor) you should see it perfectly. All of my images were removed so you can make it your own. All of the CSS is inline, so you can change things easily. There are no comments as I did not want to increase the line count that had to be processed every time this was sent out. You can easily use this for all of your email templates but just editing the text. I currently have it running for everything from ticket response to credit card approval. Feel free to use and share within the community! html-email.html

They are living in the past, they are suckers to be honest and it will hit them, WHM** is buggy because Matt did it on his own for starters, he started it learning to do PHP back in 2005, then it grew. And because a poor coder did it it's unsecure, and the only way would be to re-write it which they won't do why? - Costs - Complaints because of lack of modules / gateways / etc and most won't be supported. So they have to suffer but until a big attack (Exploit) or their data open in the wild they don't care and won't listen to us.

We still use WHMCS, (because we have to, until Blesta 3.3 release, price overide and pro-forma invoices), and we are struggling to put WHMCS working 90%, domains reminders not being sent sometimes since 5.0, multi select box not working (we didnt upgrade to the latest 5.3.7 that break Pro-Forma invoices), Email Import as tickets dosent decode latin characters since ever, Data Base is in ISO-8859-1, we didnt know in the begining that was better to use UTF-8, well we just have to live with it a few more weeks Just see WHMCS Facebook page with all bad support, and WebHostingTalk latests posts that people are talking that WHMCS is focus on Better Theme than Fixing Bugs, somehow remindes me Modernbill that was "killed" wen was purchased, I think the same thing will happening with WHMCS+cPanel union. Few people (Devs) = Better Work = Better Hosting Billing System = Blesta More People (Devs) = Confusing Work = Buggy Hosting Billing System = WHMCS I still cant understand wen pople say "WHMCS as more options than Blesta" lol, they have to think "What option do I need that Blesta dosent Have?" One thing in common on all that say that is: Blesta dosent have Price Overide Blesta dosent have Pro-Forma Invoices Blesta dosent have Pro-Rated Invoice system Well the answer will be in Blesta 3.3

While I don't really see a huge problem with random usernames...if you want to implement random usernames because your users are creating insecure passwords...I'd say that requiring secure passwords would be a much better option than randomizing their username.

Blesta is definitely better, and while their implementation is pretty basic it's still better than what they had. With all the developers they have working on their software now, I think people would expect better. We do more with fewer people, they are chasing their tails.

Please start a new thread in the feature request section, and feel free to also link to this one. Your initial post isn't worded like a feature request, so starting a new thread is likely to be more successful.

soon? later the day's not over at HostingCon bud lol

thz you for good info but as i know i just want a random username for s1**** s2**** because i just to be sure that i can know that the s1 come from server 1 and the s2 come frome server 2 this why i want to generated the username like this... but sorry yes maybe it not possible because not the easy way to do this at all. Many thz

Permission Denied means that the information that is currently saved in the cpanel module does not match what is actually on the cpanel account on the server. (or that your whm login credentials/remote key are not working) Update it manually on the server via WHM to match what you saved in Blesta and then it should work.

It's good to see Plesk moving forward, but I second the Interworx recommendation. Which reminds me, I did not run into the Interworx guys today .

football is 11 players , not just 1 my country was absent from 1998 i will write a plugin for it to participate in 2018

+1 this would be nice. Have a company account, and then be able to add specific contact people to it possibly.

I've ran into similar issues in the past, for the most part I always have a contact person but I know in the past I've used: Given name: Claim Surname: #CLAIMNUMBER For an insurance job, I've also put the department in: Given name: ICT Surname: Department Which tends to make things easier in government and large companies, so they know what pool of money it comes out of. And I think once I even did: Given name: Att: Surname: N/A And: First name: PO Number Surname: #PONUMBER I think if this was a feature, I'd still want the given name, surname fields to be mandatory for a client registration and perhaps not mandatory for admins. It's always handy to have a contact person! If that's a bit all over the place I'd probably leave it as is and deal with it.

Purchased directly earlier this morning!
