Also I read the tutorial here since i cant find no where explaining how to add and manage Hosting Add-Ons:
https://mspcontrol.org/wiki/hosting-plans-and-hosting-add-ons-best-practice/
I did add (in SCP) a new test hosting add-on called 1 GB RAM, i then went to the client services and it didnt show an icon as in the tutorial above to add Hosting Add-On !! Also i made sure to pick the appropriate Service for the addon (Virtual Server 2012), i then went through all over SCP but can't find anything mentioning Add Host-Addon for that particular test client !.. Any Help in this regards would be greatly appreciated, as am sure clients facing the same difficulty will search the forum in future and your guidance will help them too !..
Thanks,
sorry somehow the link quoted the entire page lol !!

I hope it doesn't do it again...
Right now you can use WHMCS with configurable options and assign a SolidCP hosting addon to it. So the SolidCP addon will be provisioned automatically as soon as the client choose a WHMCS configurable option. This is how we are working right now and it works pretty smooth. If a customer downgrade the WHMCS configurable option or change the quantity, then it will also be changed in SolidCP.
If you have installed the WHMCS module and connected to SolidCP enterprise server successfully, you can add the view for this module for administrators in WHMCS and then go in the WHMCS admin area to "Addons"->"SolidCP module". There you can enable the syncing of configurable options in the main tab and then go "Configurable options" tab. Here you need two IDs.
One ID is from the configurable option (you can find it in WHMCS admin if you go to the administration of the configurable option where you adjust the prices of this option and inspect the html source code with the browser. You will find for each configurable option name something like that: <input type="text" name="optionname[50]" value="" class="form-control" style="min-width:180px;">. The WHMCS ID of this option is 50.
The second ID is on the SolidCP side. You can find the right SolidCP addon id if you go to the addon page and take a look at the URL: https://URL.TOSOLIDCP.COM/Default.aspx?pid=HostingAddons&mid=XX&ctl=edit_addon&PlanID=73&UserID=XX. In this case the SolidCP addon ID is 73.
In the SolidCP module page inside the WHMCS admin are you can add a new assignment on the configurable options tab. Here you just put the WHMCS ID of the configurable option and the SolidCP addon id. I've planned to implement a selection of both IDs from the admin area of the WHMCS SolidCP module, but right now haven't found the time to implement it.
From now on the automation for this WHMCS confirable option will work also inside SolidCP, when a UpgradePackage function or a new order in WHMCS will be placed. You can test it inside a WHMCS product if you change the configurable option and then press the "Change Package" button in the middle of the page.
Regarding VPS management functions there are no plans right now to implement it into the WHMCS module. Can you describe a bit, what kind of functions would you need?
Best regards

Thank you Bodgan, but am still having issues connecting to the server from whmcs, as i think i still don't have PHP installed on my HOST server, which am working on right now...
https://solidcp.com/forum/question/solidcp-whmcs-module-v-1-1-2-now-compatible-with-php7/
Regarding your last question all I need for WHMCS to be able to do the following through the module:-
- Autoprovision VM upon client order (Exact steps made in SolidCP) Assign IP Address, Install OS, update client VM info in WHMCS and email him...
- Management options: Start, Pause, Reboot, Shutdown, Reset. (A Must)
- Mini resources showing CPU, RAM and HDD.
- DVD, Snapshot...
Basically the options showing for client in SCP i need them to show up in WHCMS "Client Area" besides auto provisioning and suspension, Configurable options, VM Login details to be handled automatically...
Hello, Any idea if the module will support autoprovisioning and vps management through WHMCS anytime soon ? and can you do a custom paid solution for this purpose ??...
