  • Domain search straight to order form?

    I was playing about with the remote domain search order form. It works, but doesn't look fantastic on my site. From the popup, when you hit order, the details go to my sites order form.

    Search Form ----> Pop up with results -------> Select domain --------> Goes to Actual Order Form

    Is there a way to create a simple search form where what the customer enters goes straight to the order form? and they get their results there? If so is anyone able to walk me through how to do it? The results the actual order form displays are pretty much what the pop up displays, so I want to cut this 'middle man' bit out if possible.

    Many thanks for any help.

    You need to pass the domain search text to the order form. So for example create a simple form with a text box and submit the form to the following URL
    Code:
    http://www.yourbrand/order-form/?tld=com&domain_type=register&sld=searcheddomain&plan=42211&stop_search=0
    The stop search is the key value here. Once the order form receives the data it will display a pop up with different possibilities. Also plan 42211 should be the domain manager, check this is the case on your reseller site.

    Indeed you dont even need to pass some of those values, the following is enough

    Code:
    http://www.yourbrand.com/order-form/?sld=blahblahs&stop_search=0

      What you are showing /order-form/ works only on the Wordpress hosting themes. The question was about remote forms. There the url must be something like username.duoservers.com/hosting-order/?sld=blahblahs&plan=42211&stop_search=0

      That shows the domain search form, but it does not show plan 42211, which should be the domain manager. Is there another order url instead of /hosting-order/ for the domain manager?

        I found it. It should be &plan=37433 to open domain registration only (free domain manager)

          Now I found out that &plan=37433 is not actually needed. My problem was that the Free Domain Manager Plan vas not activated

            The order form in the Wordpress plug-in is essentially a remote order form. The php wrapper is feeding through the variables to the remote order form which is hosted on mybrand.duoservers.com.

            This becomes a problem if the reseller in question tries to secure his/her site, as you are loading content from another domain. Most modern browsers will warn you about this.
