Importing ClientExec

[mlsto]

Hello

Getting some serious email sending issues with ClientExec is it possible to import CE data into Blesta.

Thank you in advance

[Michael]

Hi there, there's no official importer for ClientExec at the moment, I have imported a client over before which took about 2 days but it was a manual job. The other option is to import to whmcs and then to Blesta.

[mlsto]

Sounds like a lot of work, need a quick option, would be good if Blesta had this option. Don't have WHMCS this would mean buying it and then doing the transfer not an option at this time.

 

Thanks for the reply.

Further to above if I import manually what about the PayPal subscriptions already setup, what would happen to them, would I have to cancel them.

Thank you

We will consider building a CE importer, we've had quite a few requests for it recently. In the meantime, you can take advantage of the whimps 30-day money back guarantee. Get a monthly license, do the migration, then cancel and get a refund.

Understand Paul, whimps? Still does not answer what happens to the PayPal subscriptions, would Blesta record them properly when PayPal auto charges or will it ask for another payment.

If you sound out whmcs, it comes out whimps, it's just easier to say.  

Regarding PayPal Subscriptions, you may need to add a rewrite rule to your .htaccess file in Blesta to remap the  URL. Per https://docs.blesta.com/display/user/WHMCS+5.2:(But you should replace with whatever CE is)

PayPal Subscriptions

If you have any active PayPal Subscriptions in WHMCS, they will not automatically work with Blesta. Beginning with Blesta 3.5, PayPal Subscriptions can be maintained by creating a redirect in your .htaccess file. At the beginning of the file, add the following:

Redirect 301 /modules/gateways/callback/paypal.php /callback/gw/1/paypal_payments_standard/

Really do not want to go the whimps (cute) way, I took it a month back when considering it as a replacement for clientexec and because of their non-existent support, took 5 days to get an answer from support I asked for a refund so do not want to go there again.

If I do it manually do I still need to do the redirects or it will record the manual way?

Thank you

If you do it manually, existing subscriptions will need the redirect but new subscriptions would not. It's just a single line you'd add to your .htaccess file. It works with whimps, but I have not tested it on CE, but I don't see why it wouldn't work so long as you replace the beginning path with that which CE uses.

Understand, hope it can work, will report once I get it setup.

Thank you

Good luck mate if you need help I'll see what I can do.

[mlsto]

Thanks Michael

Will see how it goes

[mlsto]

Further to the PayPal subscriptions do I put the full callback URL or keep as suggested

Redirect 301 /modules/gateways/callback/paypal.php /callback/gw/1/paypal_payments_standard/

or

Redirect 301 https://www.domain.com/clients/modules/gateways/callback/paypal.php https://www.domain.com/clients/callback/gw/1/paypal_payments_standard/

Thank you

Top one it's so if that link is used it re-directs.
