Run domain sync (if supported by module) before changing status to expired

Hello,

We have a custom made registrar module where all domains is set to auto renew with the registrar (Norid).

Our problem is that in some cases where the domain name expiration date in whmcs is set to, lets say, 01.08.2021, whmcs will on 02.08.2021 set the domain to expired even if it is auto-renewed with the registrar.

Since we have a lot of domain names the sync is not run (within the module) every day, and such domain names may have a delay on updating the expire date in whmcs.

To prevent the domain name to be set expired on 02.08.2021 i suggest that whmcs try to run a domain sync trough the module before setting the status to expired.

Good suggestion! Running a registrar sync before marking a domain as expired would prevent auto-renewed domains from being flagged incorrectly when the expiry date in WHMCS is outdated. Hopefully WHMCS considers adding this check. https://www.mymilestonecard.me

I think that’s a really practical idea, because sometimes the registrar has already auto-renewed the domain but WHMCS hasn’t synced the new expiry date yet, so running a sync first could prevent domains from being marked as expired by mistake. https://smashkartsgame.io
