Release Notes

Case #4325 - Update Late Fees to apply on the day not the day after

Case #4325 resolves a bug in which Late Fees will have up until now been applied the day after the due date. For example if a late fee was configured to apply 5 days after the due date, it would have applied on day 6. Following applying this update, it will apply on day 5. You can check and adjust your setting for when Late Fees are applied by navigating to Setup > Automation Settings > Add Late Fee Days.

Case #4451 - SendEmail: Improve error reporting

The API SendEmail function has been improved to provide more granular feedback should it encounter problems when attempting to send an email.

Case #4720 - ResellerClub: Update privacy protection to use purchase-privacy parameter

Case #4720 and other associated cases address the changes necessary to the ResellerClub module to ensure privacy protection can still be provisioned successfully once ResellerClub begins charging for Privacy Protection for WHMCS sub-resellers on Monday, 22nd September. If you set a price for Privacy Protection inside the ResellerClub Supersite without this update, WHMCS will no longer be able to auto provision Privacy Protection for domains with ResellerClub until the update is applied.

Case #5083 - Notify admins upon detection of admin directory configuration issue

Case #5083 is an attempt to make the upgrade process more fool-proof. We have found in recent releases that a lot of users apply an update forgetting to take into account their custom admin directory settings. The results of this are that you end up with the newer files in the default /admin/ directory, and then experience errors and problems due to attempting to use WHMCS with older files still present in their custom admin directory. So as of this update, you will be prompted any time a custom admin directory name is configured and a default /admin/ directory is found also. You will not be allowed to continue using the admin area until the default /admin/ directory is removed. If you encounter this error, please ensure you have uploaded all the files from this and any recent updates into your custom admin directory before removing it.
