I've just installed WHMCS WP Integration on a new site, and I've noticed a new section in the admin called WHMCS URL Encoder.
I just wanted to check what that was for? Does it allow you to easily get the URL for diffferent WHMCS pages, or is it something totally different?

Hiya Joe,
If you take one of the product links that you get from the Links tab on the products definition page you can make a link to that product by going to the WHMCS Integration Setting page in admin and pasting that URL into the URL encoder there.
http://whmcs.wpwhmcs.com/cart.php?a=add&pid=1
would become
?whmcsportal[page]=aHR0cDovL2NsaWVudHMuZmhjb25jZXB0LmNvbS8%3D
You then just add this query string to your WHMCS content page or any page with a [wcp_content] shortcode on it
http://my.wp.com/whmcs/?whmcsportalpage=aHR0cDovL2NsaWVudHMuZmhjb25jZXB0LmNvbS8%3D
and it should take you right to it.
Hope that helps. Thanks!

Thanks Mason and Tim.
That's all I needed. Unfortunately, a few weeks ago I was having email problems, so didn't know there had been a response.

No worries. We've had a bit of an issue with getting email notifications to send as well so could also have been us.
Thanks!

Been going around and around trying to find out how to pull up a specific product with the URL encoder. Everything I've read about it is cryptic.
What worked for me is to install the "Page Links To" plugin to make a "page" (basically a permalink) that goes to the encrypted URL. You have to substitute %5B for [ and %5D for ] in the URL then it'll work.
Or is there a better way to do this?

Hey there.
With the URL encode you put in the WHMCS url for you and then generate the link.
To ensure we don't miss your posts it's always best to create a new support thread. Sometimes on much older threads we can miss them as they are no longer actively in our feeds.
Take care.
