Blesta 5.5 is now available! The domain manager continues to get updates, including a bulk TLD import with pricing markup, advanced renewal of domains, and automatic price overrides for domains, and a new internet.bs registrar module. We also added an abandoned order feature, an option to hide client fields that are not required on both order forms and within the client area, adjust the start value and format of client ID’s, and more.
