Firstly I think Domains are a service

all the world are agreed in this subject. Domains are services and should remain as services. how it should displayed and how the order form should treated is another story.

Hey,

I've noticed that the concept of "simple hosting order form" or "True Hosting Order form" (not sure it's the same thing) keeps popping up.

So I'm curios to know how exactly this order form looks like.

Can you please explain or show me one?

How far is this update/upgrading progressed?  I am personally still very unhappy with the way, it currently works, starting with ordering/transfer/update  (personal data) ..... . that I could ignore selling any domains since using blesta

[huangsenli]

It’s important to develop a domain name manager.

[Tiny]

Whatever, it might be called. At the current state, all related to domains i do in orderbox and changes don't reflect. In my eyes definitely THE module, which needs priority in development, as the current state is worse, than I would sell my to my enemies

[CyberHour]

@Paul Hey buddy, can you please give us more information here.. What is going on?

if you are a orderbox (logicboxes) plateforme you can use the logicboxes module, our our logicboxes reloaded module that has so many option to do from admin side without leaving blesta, even if dns and domain forwarding options, manual renew ...ect .

locking for a great state of art domain + hosting concepts in blesta, is a frustrated feeling, i know a lot of client switched to blesta but the lock of hosting industry mechanism lead them to back to whmxx  after some weeks of using blesta.

[Tiny]

Yep, I am on logic boxes. and therefore I really see the difference between WHMCS and BLESTA. I just wait for the update from Blesta to see, if it is supposed to be happen in within my future life expectation or if I return fully to WHMCS.

TET seems about a good time to switch back. Then orders are on it's lowest and all staff away

The only update I have is to say that we are adding a special feature to the core in 4.6 that will make the domain update possible in a future release. The feature we're adding in 4.6 is necessary to the foundation of the domain update, which can only come after it's completed. The feature is useful by itself also, and we'll release more information about it as we get closer to releasing 4.6.

I don't have any ETA's. I have no reason to believe that 4.6 won't follow our typical release cycle, but I'm not going to make any predictions about the domain update. There will be a beta when we are ready for a beta.

I guess that the new feature is " Renewal Price Option - Optionally set a renew price that is different from the new price for services."  Nice!

Don't you have a grosso modo ETA for domain refactoring?  I mean, this year will be ready?  Or, we are talking about 2-3 years (  let's remember that the initial post is from august 2016).

This could be relevant to wait for the feature to land in, or start with existing framework and import later.

this is because, probably not many of us are reselling domains, or this would be on the priority list

why not @Paul, we get a vote on this and than may be prioritize it a bit?

what say all?

[EuroDomenii]

What about a fundraising, to speed up development of domain refactoring ? We would jump in with $500 USD .

if you search you will find this subject the most wanted and talked. but it seem that the hosting/domain industry is not their priority list .

yes, this feature is step forward in the domains logic model.

The renew price option in 4.6 is one of the core updates required for the domain manager, and can be used now to support a separate new and renew price for domains in the current system. A separate transfer price and better support for domains is coming. While I don't have an ETA yet, we have been making progress. I know that it's highly requested, and much needed, and our 4.6 release puts us 1 step closer in terms of underlying core functionality to support the domain manager.

may be @Blesta Addons, would be able to make a module/plugin to help us

i do not see many around with better knowledge?

we can't do anything, this need a modification in the core files, and we didn't encourage  the core files modification or hacking .

after the renewal price option, the next step i think is the unification of command in all domains modules, like getNameservers() , setNameservers(array $vars = null), getWhoisContact($type = 'all') ,  getEppCode(), setEppCode($epp) .... something like that .... or the second option that i can think about is to create a new module called for example domain manager, inside the module the option to add registrars and then extend the module command from the registrar class, the same login as modules with their functions, but finally Blesta who decide what is the best .
