Automatically reducing the actual WHMCS product price would require HostX to modify WHMCS's pricing structure.
This introduces several technical challenges, including:
- Restoring the original price when a discount is removed.
- Handling multiple billing cycles (Monthly, Quarterly, Annually, etc.).
- Managing different prices for multiple currencies.
- Overriding WHMCS's default pricing logic.
- Maintaining compatibility with future WHMCS updates.
Because of these complexities, automatically changing WHMCS pricing could introduce inconsistencies and unexpected behavior.
Summary
The HostX Discount Manager is designed to:
- Display promotional discounts using strike-through pricing.
- Keep the WHMCS selling price unchanged.
- Ensure consistent pricing throughout the ordering process.
- Avoid conflicts with WHMCS's native pricing system.
If you want customers to purchase a product at a discounted price, simply set the discounted price in WHMCS and use the HostX Discount Manager to display the original price alongside it.
