This module injects a custom WHOIS button and modal into the WHMCS domain lookup page, allowing your clients to view WHOIS information without leaving the interface.

Once installed and activated, a “WHOIS Lookup” link appears beside your domain listings. Clicking it opens a responsive modal that fetches and displays real-time WHOIS data via AJAX.

Key Features:

• Modern, Bootstrap-based modal that loads WHOIS results without a full page reload.
• Asynchronous data fetching with a loading spinner and error handling.
• Input sanitization to prevent command injection.
• Verifies that the addon is active before attempting the WHOIS query.
• Compatible with any WHMCS theme using jQuery and Bootstrap 4/5.

Installation Steps:

1. Copy the customwhois folder into modules/addons/.
2. Edit the file /httpdocs/templates/lagom2/core/pages/domainregister/modern/domainregister.tpl and paste code Step 3.1 from READ.ME
3. Edit the file /httpdocs/templates/lagom2/includes/domain/search-result.tpl and paste code Step 3.2 from READ.ME
4. In WHMCS Admin, navigate to Setup → Addon Modules and click “Activate” for “Custom WHOIS Modal.”
5. Ensure your server allows execution of the whois command.
6. That’s it—your clients can now perform WHOIS lookups directly from the domain page.
