Starting with version 2.3, H-Sphere comes with a Domain Registrar Manager that
supports automatic domain registration services multiple domain registration providers.
In order for you to provide domain registration services, your hosting provider
needs to set up a connection with a supported domain registration provider.
You can't create your own connections.
This document provides step-by-step instructions on how
to set default prices for the domain registration services you will offer.
IMPORTANT:
1. Before you start, make sure to have your company info carefully
entered, as it will be used as Billing and Tech info for registered domains. With your
company info incorrect or incomplete, end users may start encountering problems with
domain registration. Company Info is set on the Look&Feel -> Company Info page.
2. Starting with version 2.3.1 beta 4, H-Sphere supports .US, .CA, .INFO, and .BIZ domains.
Supported domain registration providers require that registrant phone and fax numbers be entered in a special format.
Users registering .US and .CA domains are also asked for some additional information.
Phone/fax format depending on the country of residence:
- North America: NXX-NXX-XXXX/YYYY;
- Other countries: +CCC.ZZZZZZZZZZ/YYYY.
Here, N is a digit from 2 to 9, X any digit, YYYY optional extension, CCC country code,
ZZZZZZZZZZ phone/fax number inside the country.
Administrators/resellers should also change the format of phone and fax numbers
in their Company Info pages.
3. TLDs with asynchronous registration, such as .co.uk or .org.uk, must be handled with
Custom Domain Registrar even though they may be supported by Enom or OpenSRS.
You can set different domain registration prices in different plans. However,
you first need to set default domain registration prices to be applied every time a
plan-specific price hasn't been specified.
