How to Install/Update the TPP Wholesale registrar Module in WHMCS

- Please Download WHMCS module.
- Upload the tppwregistrar.zip file to the /modules/registrar/directory.

WHMCS Configuration for TPP Wholesale Module
- Log in to your WHMCS as admin and set up the domain registrar by clicking on Setup → Product/Services → Domain Registrars → Activate TPP Wholesale
- To activate the TPP Wholesale registrar, hover over 'Account Settings', then 'API & WHMCS', then 'API & WHMCS Settings', then click ‘API Log in Credentials’
- Leave the default account field blank if you are happy for WHMCS to create client accounts on the TPP Wholesale systems and group each client's domain registrations within them. If you'd prefer to have all the domain names simply grouped in one account on the TPP Wholesale systems, enter that Account Reference. Save any changes to complete the activation.

How to test whether your Connection is working
To test if your WHMCS is connecting correctly to your TPPW admin panel, you need to have an existing domain name in your admin panel.
- Log in to the Admin Area of WHMCS and click 'Clients' then 'View/Search Clients'
- Select a customer from the list to view their Client Profile
- Click 'Add New Order'
- Click the Domain Registration option and enter the domain name in the Domain Name text field
- Select the correct registration period
- Click 'Submit Order'
- In the Registrar dropdown, select ‘TPPWregistrar’ and uncheck the 'Send to Registrar' box
- Click 'Accept Order'
- Click the Domain link to view the domain name in the Client Profile
A successful connection to a domain name in your Admin Panel will allow you to manage the name servers, contact information and view the domain password. If you have received an error, it could be for a number of reasons. Our API should provide you with an error code and response. You can learn more about WHMCS error codes by clicking here.
