HostMyServers Registrar Module for WHMCS

The HostMyServers registrar module lets you natively integrate HostMyServers domain name management into your WHMCS installation. As a reseller, you can register, transfer, renew and manage your clients' domains directly from your WHMCS administration interface, without ever redirecting them to HostMyServers.

Features

• Registration of new domain names with HostMyServers
• Incoming transfer of domains from another registrar
• Renewal — manual and automatic via WHMCS cron tasks
• DNS management: modification of nameservers associated with a domain
• Transfer lock: enable / disable the registrar lock
• WHOIS privacy: enable / disable data confidentiality
• WHOIS contact updates (owner, administrative, technical, billing)
• Automatic synchronisation of statuses and expiry dates
• Availability search for multiple extensions from the WHMCS cart

Prerequisites

Before installing the module, make sure your environment meets the following requirements:

Item	Required version / value
WHMCS	8.0 or higher
PHP	8.1 or higher
PHP extension cURL	Enabled
PHP extension JSON	Enabled

No SOAP

Unlike some registrar modules, the HostMyServers module does not use the SOAP extension. Communication with the HostMyServers API relies exclusively on HTTP/cURL requests with JSON responses. No SOAP configuration is required.

Architecture

The module installs in a single folder within the WHMCS directory tree:

whmcs/
└── modules/
    └── registrars/
        └── hostmyservers/       ← module folder
            ├── hostmyservers.php        ← single entry point (WHMCS hooks + API calls)
            ├── whmcs.json               ← module metadata (name, version, author)
            ├── logo.png                 ← logo displayed in WHMCS interface
            └── lang/
                ├── french.php           ← FR translations
                ├── english.php          ← EN translations
                ├── german.php           ← DE translations
                ├── italian.php          ← IT translations
                ├── polish.php           ← PL translations
                ├── russian.php          ← RU translations
                └── spanish.php          ← ES translations

All logic — HostMyServers API calls, WHMCS hooks (RegisterDomain, TransferDomain, RenewDomain, GetNameservers, SaveNameservers, etc.) — is concentrated in the hostmyservers.php file.
