Nova Experience on cPanel

Nova Experience on cPanel brings WebPros' agentic AI website and app builder, Nova, into WHMCS. Where the standard cPanel module hands your customers a traditional control panel, Nova replaces that entirely: end users describe what they want to build in plain language and never see cPanel at all. This module is the WHMCS-side integration that provisions, bills, and manages those accounts.

The distribution has two parts that install together:

• A server module that drives the full hosting account lifecycle against the WHM/cPanel API.
• A landing page that handles prompt-driven onboarding, registration, and auto-provisioning for new visitors.

What It Does

Server Module

• Automatic account provisioning against WHM, including generated usernames for accounts using cPanel Temporary Domains (no domain required at signup)
• Single Sign-On into Nova, with the customer's original prompt passed straight through so the conversation continues where they left off
• Automated suspension, termination, and package upgrades
• Integrated disk and bandwidth usage reporting, synced on a schedule
• Automatic domain-drift detection, keeping WHMCS in sync if a domain changes in cPanel

Landing Page

• A prompt widget where visitors describe what they want to build before ever creating an account
• One combined flow: register and get auto-provisioned onto a free plan without leaving the page
• A pricing and plans grid that adapts to the visitor - current plan badges, currency-aware pricing, and upgrade options
• A dedicated upgrade path: when a customer hits a plan limit inside Nova, they land back on this page with their own upgrade options already selected
• CAPTCHA support (reCAPTCHA v2/v3, hCaptcha) and CSRF protection on every form submission

Why It Benefits You

• Fewer support tickets. Customers upgrade, get provisioned, and manage their account without a ticket or a manual step by staff.
• A modern first impression. New visitors get a conversational, prompt-first signup instead of a traditional order form.
• Billing stays accurate. Usage, suspensions, and terminations sync automatically between WHM and WHMCS, including for accounts that never had a domain assigned.
• Built for self-hosted cPanel hosts. No separate platform to run, Nova is a licensed plugin on your existing cPanel & WHM servers, and this module is the billing and lifecycle layer WHMCS needs to manage it.

Requirements

• A cPanel & WHM server (version 134 or later) with a Nova on cPanel license added through Manage2. Nova is enabled in cPanel & WHM once the license is active.
• WHMCS 8.13 or later.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this module replace the cPanel module?

No. If you want customers to use the traditional cPanel interface, keep using the cPanel module. Use this module only for servers running the Nova Experience, where customers never see cPanel directly.

Can I rename the "Nova" branding customers see?

Yes. An applicationName setting renames the login buttons customers see throughout the flow.

What happens to accounts without a domain?

Nova supports cPanel Temporary Domains. The module generates a username automatically and keys all lookups, usage reporting, and SSO to that username rather than to a domain.

Is the landing page required?

No, but it is the primary way new customers sign up and existing customers upgrade. It ships as a standalone WHMCS custom page separate from the server module itself.
