With version 4 of the CSF Unblocker module, installation is easier than ever. You no longer have to edit templates edits. We have made it easy to install and configure the module.

Key new features

  • Six & Twentyone Template compatible

  • No template installation/modification

  • Remote hash update

  • Remote script update

  • Frontend multi-language support

Requirements

Make sure the remote servers have ioncube 10/12 loader enabled. If you are running ioncube loader earlier than ioncube 10 then you can either run easyapache to rebuild the ioncube extension automatically or manually update the ioncube loader files.

Basic Overview

There are two parts to the module

  1. WHMCS side - Where your client will log into your WHMCS installation and unblock their IP on their hosting server
  2. Remote Server side (Hosting Server) - This is where your clients are hosted

Installation Instructions Overview

  1. The Module must be configured and enabled in your WHMCS.

  2. The Provisioning Module of the hosting service needing to use this module must have the module enabled in the Enable for Modules under the Admin Configuration page

  3. The Remote server must be setup with the remote server script Remote Server Installation (root required for installation, not required for running of the remote script). The remote server script must be reachable via http or https

  4. To test the remote server is working correctly, click on the Connection Test under the first column on the Server Listing table.

WHMCS side Installation

There isn't any template modification needed for the module, simply upload the files in the whmcsUpload folder into your WHMCS/modules/addons directory.

Important

If you are using the csfunblocktech module, make sure you upload and activate the main module (csfunblock) first. Once the main module is activated, you can then proceed to activate the csfunblocktech module. Otherwise, the system will crash.
