Getting Started with SkyHS

Welcome! This guide will help you set up and start using SkyHS – the all‑in‑one solution for selling domain names, cPanel hosting, and subscriptions through WooCommerce. Follow the steps below, and you’ll be ready to offer hosting and domain services in no time.

Trước khi bạn bắt đầu

Make sure your WordPress site meets the following requirements:

• WordPress 5.0 or later
• WooC Commerce 4.0 or later (installed and active)
• PHP 7.4 or later
• Một SSL certificate installed on your site
• A WHM/cPanel server (with API token access) – needed to create and manage hosting accounts
• An eNom account – required for domain registration services (optional if you don’t plan to sell domains)

Mẹo
If you don’t have a WHM server yet, many web hosting companies offer dedicated or reseller servers that include WHM access.

Cài đặt

1. Tải xuống plugin – Get the SkyHS plugin zip file from your purchase receipt or account area.
2. Upload the plugin – Go to your WordPress admin dashboard and navigate to Plugin > Thêm mới > Tải plugin lên.
3. Choose the zip file và nhấp vào Cài đặt ngay.
4. Kích hoạt plugin – After installation, click Kích hoạt.
5. Run the Setup Wizard – After activation, a notice will appear at the top of your admin pages inviting you to run the Trình hướng dẫn cài đặt. Click it – we’ll walk through the wizard in the next section.

Thiết lập lần đầu

The Setup Wizard guides you through three essential steps. You can also change these settings later from the SKYHS thực đơn.

Step 1 – Add Your First WHM Server

• Server Name – Give your server a friendly label (e.g., “Main Server”).
• WHM Host – Enter the hostname or IP address of your WHM server.
• WHM Username – Usually root.
• API Token – Generate an API token from your WHM interface and paste it here.
• Server IP Address – The public IP of the server.
• Nameservers (ns1‑ns4) – Optionally provide custom nameservers for domains hosted on this server.
• Default Packages – Select the WHM hosting packages you want to offer (you can change these later).

nhấp chuột Test Connection to make sure everything works, then Cứu.

Step 2 – Connect eNom (for domain registration)

• Mode – Select Bài kiểm tra while first setting up, or Sống when you’re ready to sell domains.
• Live / Test Username & Password – Enter your eNom API credentials.
• Default Nameservers – Up to four default nameservers for newly registered domains.
• Additional Price Per Domain ($) – A markup added on top of eNom’s base price.

nhấp chuột Lưu cài đặt. You can always come back to this screen later.

Step 3 – Choose Your Dashboard Page

• Trang tổng quan – Select a page from your site. If you don’t have one yet, the wizard can create a new page for the client dashboard (the page must contain the dashboard shortcode – the wizard handles this for you).

nhấp chuột Complete Setup. You’ll now see the SKYHS Dashboard in your admin menu.

Ghi chú
The Setup Wizard only appears once. If you skip it, navigate to SKYHS > Setup Wizard from the admin menu to run it later.

Server Manager (WHM/cPanel)

Cài đặt & Tùy chọn

• Always ensure the Owner Và Subscription are correctly linked so that billing and ownership records remain accurate.

• Use search for quick access – When you have many cached accounts, the search box helps you find a specific account without scrolling.
• Clean up old entries – Delete cached accounts that are no longer needed to keep your working environment tidy and improve performance.
• Take advantage of autocomplete – After syncing, you’ll see account suggestions automatically when selecting cPanel accounts in the Hosting Manager, saving you time.

Enom Domain Sync

Nó làm gì

Enom Domain Sync pulls your registered domains from eNom into a local database, making them available inside your site. It includes pagination for large lists, automatic owner lookup using registrant email addresses, and local caching so the data loads faster each time you visit.

Cách sử dụng nó

1. Trong quản trị viên WordPress của bạn, hãy truy cập SKYHS > Enom Manager.
2. Bấm vào Sync button to fetch all domains from your eNom account.
3. Once the sync completes, you can browse the domains using the pagination controls at the bottom of the list.

• Verify your Enom settings – If the sync fails or returns unexpected results, double‑check your eNom API credentials under the related Enom Settings page.

Enom Domain Settings

Nó làm gì

The Enom Domain Settings page lets you connect your site to the eNom domain registry. You can switch between live and test environments, enter your API credentials, set default nameservers for new domains, add a price markup on top of eNom’s base price, and clear the cached list of synced domains to ensure you’re working with fresh data.

Cách sử dụng nó

1. In your WordPress admin area, go to SKYHS và nhấp vào Enom Settings.
2. Choose the Mode you want to work in:
   • Sống – processes real transactions.
   • Bài kiểm tra – processes sandbox transactions (use this for testing).

6. nhấp chuột Lưu cài đặt để lưu trữ cấu hình của bạn.
7. (Optional) To refresh the local domain list, click Delete All Cached Domains. This clears the cache and forces a fresh sync the next time domains are loaded.

Cài đặt & Tùy chọn

Mẹo & phương pháp hay nhất

• Test first: Always configure and test using Bài kiểm tra mode before switching to Sống. This confirms your credentials and settings work without affecting real transactions.
• Keep credentials secure: Store your eNom API passwords carefully. The connection relies on these credentials, and exposing them could lead to unauthorized use.
• Set nameservers early: Configuring default nameservers upfront saves time on every new domain registration. Make sure at least two are provided for redundancy.
• Monitor markup margins: When setting an additional price per domain, ensure it covers your costs and remains competitive. You can adjust this value anytime by returning to the Enom Settings page.

Backup Manager

Nó làm gì
