This release is a major update of the module. It has been fully rewritten to use new core librairies and conform to our new development policy.

General improvements

• New management of asynchronous operations “Subscription ID” field in domain name management is not used anymore. Rather, asynchronous operations are stored in the local database and updated thanks to the synchronization script. Existing users have nothing to do as the script will migrate operations stored with the old method. More information concerning pending requests and templates.
• New management of additional domain fields The definition of the fields has changed to a json file (with new translations). Existing users have to check their translations if they have customized them. Support of the domain lookup provider feature with support of premium domains. See Domain availability check.
• New domains will get the “Pending registration” status rather than “Pending” one. In case of registration failure, it will get back the “Pending” status by default.
• New configuration method for the trustee service and the local contact service For existing users, check your existing settings with the new definition.
• New parameters for debugging management The management of logs has been reviewed in order to facilitate the debugging.
• When the subscription period for a transfer order is more than 1 year, the request submission fails. Netim’s system support only 1 year for domain transfer requests.
• Nameservers change can be done with glue record. Provide for exemple ns1.netim.net:1.2.3.4

Improvements the client area

• New customer template “twenty-one” in order to display messages to clients on asynchronous operations. For existing users using other template or custom one, merge our changes in your active template.
