FAQ
Questions About the WHMCS Link Compliance Module
What does the module actually check?
It checks eligible hosted websites for required backlinks, linked banners, or approved branding links, while also validating DNS and hosting context to reduce false positives.
Will it open tickets automatically?
It can, but ticket creation is optional. You can keep it as an internal review tool only, or enable client ticket workflows once you are confident in the rules.
Can I exclude or exempt certain services?
Yes. You can exclude services from monitoring, apply temporary ignores, mark services exempt, or manually mark them compliant when needed.
Does it work with Cloudflare or proxies?
Yes, but proxied sites may be marked as uncertain rather than directly on-platform. The module is designed to avoid treating those cases as automatic link-breach failures.
Does it support JavaScript-inserted footer links?
The module is homepage-first and checks rendered HTML source without browser automation in v1, so purely JavaScript-inserted links may require manual review.
What versions of WHMCS and PHP are supported?
The module is designed for modern WHMCS 8.x environments and PHP 8.2+ / 8.3+ compatible hosting stacks.
Does it require a separate cron job?
No. It integrates with the WHMCS daily automation process and does not require a separate standalone cron in normal usage.
How does licensing work?
The module uses standard Snowtech licensing with local caching and grace behaviour for temporary remote-check issues, while still allowing safe activation and upgrades.
