Help
Hello,
I'm looking at purchasing a billing solution with will probably be modernbill. I also want the ability for the client to link straight from modernbill client area (account listing) to their hosting accounts in cpanel.
i.e. If I have 3 hosting accounts, I want to be able to click on the listing in modernbill and my cpanel/rvskin'ed hosting area loads.
I'm told by modernbill that rvskin supports this feature - Can you confirm and describe a bit more about how it works?
Thanks,
Adam.

How It Works
1. When a user clicks on the Modernbill icon in rvskin the link to Modernbill will be appended with a security hash to verify that the request is legitimate.
2. If the user's security hash is valid, rvskin will query Modernbill using the user's main domain name to find the Modernbill username.
3. If the result of the query returns more than 1 record, rvskin will query again using the user's contact email address to narrow the search.
4. If the result of the second query still returns more than 1 record, rvskin will stop and show an error.
5. When rvskin is sure that the Modernbill username is correct, rvskin will attempt to log into Modernbill in the background and transfer the user if the login is successful.
Be warning, everytime modernbill update its software, it usually brake the integration and RVskin need to be updated. Due to mb is a 3rd party application, it will not in the top priority and take time to get fixed.

Hi, I have a couple of questions:
If a customer has multiple Cpanel accounts and in Modernbill all of the domains are linked to one account name, will the customer be able to access their Modernbill account by logging into any one of those Cpanel accounts?
Is Rvskin planning to integrate with Modernbill V5 using it's new MBAPI? Assuming, the API delivers what it promises, it should be much easier to integrate without it breaking after each new release.

Yes.

I don't have a chance to look at it yet. If it is stable, we will do it.
