Domain Punch Professional: Quickly Access Registrar Management Interface
Many users of Domain Punch Professional are not aware that they can access the registrar's management interface with a single click from the software. Even I had forgotten about this and remembered it only because recently a customer asked a question about it!
This option is available under the "Edit > Domain Management Settings" menu. Remember to first highlight a domain in the list by clicking on it before choosing the menu option.
Some settings are required for this. But you need to do this only once (for each registrar).
- Registrar's account login URL
- Your login/user name
- The account password (stored in the local registry in an encrypted format)
- If the account page uses POST method
- The various POST variables used in the registrar's HTML account login form. You can find this by looking at the HTML source of the login page.
You can also specify your own data using the following variables. The software will automatically fill in the required information.
- {login}
- {password}
- {domain}
Here is an example settings for Tucows (opensrs)
URL
POST

reg_domain={domain}
