WHMCS Gold Plugins Launched - Free cPanel Bridge Available!
WHMCS GOLD ABUSE METER
REQUIREMENTS:
- WHMCS
- Config Server Firewall (CSF)
- VPS/Dedicated Server
- WHM/Cpanel
- suPHP installed on Apache
This plugin is extremely useful to help you run a hosting business with stable server environment.
FEATURES:
- Automatic Server Abuse Detection
- Automatic Warning Notice Delivery to Potential Abusive Clients
- Automatic Account Suspension on Abusive Accounts
- Supports Unlimited Number of Servers to Auto Manage and Monitor
- WHMCS Client Area Abuse Meter for Clients to Monitor/See Their Own Abuse Meter
- Logs Every Single Abusive Processes Occured on All Servers
HOW IT WORKS:
An existing Config Server Firewall installation is required for this powerful plugin to work. You can install CSF yourself for free. It takes about 5 minutes to install CSF and about 2 hours for you to configure it to your liking (since there are quite some variables to set). Fortunately, we will also provide you with a working standardized CSF config file for you to immediately use. This way, you can save the two hours trying to figure out all the variables that are available to set.
To see how you can install CSF, please visit CSF here. If you're still not sure how to install that, you can provide us the root access to your server and we can install CSF and configure it for it to work with this plugin for $25.
Once you got CSF running on your server, this is how it's going to work:
- You define the "allowable" process limits for your users in CSF configuration
- Each time a running process violate these rules, CSF will automatically send out an email to your specified mailbox. This is what CSF do.
- This plugin will then collects all these alerts which are coming from CSF and store it all into your WHMCS database
- It will then parse all these data and then pin point which clients are causing this alerts to happen
- These data will then be available to both you (the web host) and the clients
- Warning notices will automatically be sent out to both the web host and the client whenever to many abuse processes are occuring under one particular client
- If you activate auto suspend on this plugin, the system will automatically suspend clients which met the auto suspend treshold, for example 200 abuse processes/day
- Both you and your client will be able to view all these listed abuse processes, this will also justify you whenever your client is suspended, they can see for themselves all the processes which are violating your server rules.

WHMCS GOLD COUPONS
This powerful plugin will help you boost your sales and brand awareness through your existing clients. All "big boys" use this strategy to expand their hosting empire, you should too!
FEATURES:
- Clients can generate their own coupons and define their own coupon codes and the value for each coupon
- Coupons work exactly like "cash" in WHMCS
- You can define the discount rate for your clients to buy coupons
- You can define a seperate discount rate between product/services and domain names
- You can define which product, addons, and domain names which the coupons can be applied to
- Option to restrict coupon system to clients which has an active hosting account only
HOW IT WORKS:
With the Gold Coupons system implemented, your clients will be able to generate coupon codes from within their WHMCS client area. They can define the coupon code and the value of the coupon.
They can then use these coupon themselves to buy additional services from your company at a discounted rate or they can sell these coupons for other people to buy your services using these coupons.
For example, if you set your coupon discount rate to 20%, when existing clients generate a $100 coupon, it will only cost your clients $80, because they get a 20% discount. But these coupon has a $100 value, so they can sell/give this coupon to other people to buy products/services which has a $100 value.

Seems to be very good but does the free whmcs cPanel bridge have the option to be enabled for only certain resellers? I didn't see it so far.

I will most likely implement this.
I will probably buy the other products to support you - which is what giving this away free is designed to do.
Support those that support us I say.

Okay, found a few bugs already.
And why does it require Administration login for WHMCS?
Without being able to see the code, all login (for WHMCS) goes through your server, this means if you're attacked our data is released. Also, even if it's going over a secure channel, it is still another thing to go wrong. (Regardless if there is encryption or not, it adds another vulnerability).

The abuse meter requires administration login for WHMCS only if you need the auto suspend feature to work. Otherwise, leave it blank. The WHMCS API requires WHMCS admin and pwd to work, otherwise the auto suspend which uses the API will not work.
All WHMCS processes do not go over our server, it just requires to do a license check.
All codes are encrypted, because otherwise everyone can just remove the licensing protection of the software and distribute it everywhere for free.
Thanks for the good question. Please let me know the bugs and I'll fix it. I will also be setting up a forum for bug reports and discussions.██ We Have Generated Over 7 Million cPanel Backups Come Dance Together With Us Y'all!

Thank you guys for all the positive feedbacks! I will also be providing one more free plugin this week which allows you to have your clients choose on WHMCS login to either login to their WHMCS area (support/billing), or to login directly to their cPanel.
This module would be handy so your clients will not have to login to WHMCS first then try to figure out where the cPanel login button is.██ We Have Generated Over 7 Million cPanel Backups Come Dance Together With Us Y'all!

Hi Matt,
It is using the WHMCS API to connect.██ We Have Generated Over 7 Million cPanel Backups Come Dance Together With Us Y'all!

Yes but I believe it shouldn't require WHMCS Database login information as well as Admin.
We only enabled Admin API and disabled all other functions (so we also limited the vulnerability's impact should it be exploited) and it failed.
Also, a parallel login feature should be implemented and this would be easy. Since both databases are communicating with each other and will cut the some of the "bridge" code / possible exploits.
I realise that the login / password data isn't sent to you, but is it doing a license check for every process? Doing so opens up a connection each time, and every new connection you make that is accessible to such data (and in this case accessible to a 3rd party) is extremely risky.
At the same time - we still can't see exactly what the code is doing and can only log is behaviour.
If you PM me we can help you out a bit.

I'm currently working blind here, as I'm trying to gather an educated guess from the current post. The API does not require a mysql username or password to connect.
Source: http://wiki.whmcs.com/API:Example_Usage
<?php
$url = "http://www.yourdomain.com/whmcs/includes/api.php"; # URL to WHMCS API file
$username = "Admin"; # Admin username goes here
$password = "demo"; # Admin password goes here
