The whole ticket system is still far too basic, buggy and clunky...

If I forward tickets into whmcs, I have to choose a different FROM address when forwarding, since you cannot use your own user, or it's ignored.
I then have to go into the ticket system and assign that ticket to the client.
But even though I have changed the owner of the ticket, my email address is still linked to it somehow, even though it doesn't appear anywhere in the ticket options.
So I then end up getting copies of all replies cc'd to me.

there is not even an ability to open a ticket on behalf of a ticket.
If I create a ticket under a client's account, it shows as coming from me and not them.
plus you STILL do not have any ability to assign a ticket to a specific user or contact.

These are things people have been asking for since I first started using WHMCS 15+ years ago.

Hello Liam,

How would you go about adding that hook to WHMCS?

Thanks

This can be done via a hook. This hook should work

<?

add_hook("TicketPiping",1,"fwd_ticket_pipe");

if(!function_exists("fwd_ticket_pipe"))
{
function fwd_ticket_pipe($vars)
{
$to = $vars['to'];
$subject = $vars['subject'];

if (strpos($subject, 'Fwd:') !== false) {

$adminonly = false; // For admin only
if($numrows > 0)
{
$adminonly = true;
}

$subject = str_replace("Fwd: ", "", $vars['subject']);

$lines = explode("\n", $vars['body']);
$message = '';

for ($i=0; $i < count($lines); $i++) {
$lines[$i] = str_replace("> ","",$lines[$i]);

//Split out the sender information portion
if (preg_match("/From: (.*)<(.*)>/", $lines[$i], $matches)) {

$name = $matches[1];
$email = $matches[2];

} else {

}
if($i > 8)
{
$message .= $lines[$i].'
';
}
}

if($adminonly)
{
$numrows2 = Illuminate\Database\Capsule\Manager::table("tbladmins")->where("email","=",$vars['email'])->count();
if($numrows2 > 0)
{
logActivity('Forwarded email is sent from an admin email account. It has been imported', 0);
processPipedTicket($to, $name, $email, $subject, $message, $vars['attachments']);
} else {
logActivity('Forwarded email is not sent from an admin email account. It has NOT been imported', 0);
}

} else {
logActivity('Forwarded email is sent from a generic email account. It has been imported', 0);
processPipedTicket($to, $name, $email, $subject, $message, $vars['attachments']);
}


exit();

}

}
}
