PD Domain & Email Forwarder for WHMCS: set up domain and email forwarding

PD Domain & Email Forwarder manages URL and email forwarding from WHMCS, using a supported provider for the domain. A redirect sends a visitor to another URL; an email forward sends mail to another mailbox. They need separate configuration.

What the workflow covers

You can manage multiple providers and choose a default. URL forwarding supports permanent and temporary redirects and optional path preservation. Email forwarding depends on the backend’s mail-routing capabilities and the destination setup.

Before you start

Install PD Modules for WHMCS first, connect the account that holds your licence, then install PD Domain & Email Forwarder from its Store. Allow the administrator role that needs to use it.

Set up your first workflow

  1. Open Forwarding → Providers and add the provider that actually manages the domain. Supply credentials with the permissions needed for URL forwarding, email forwarding or both.
  2. Choose the domain and create the intended forward. For a URL, check the destination scheme, redirect type and whether the original path should be preserved.
  3. For email, set the mailbox or catch-all destination and complete any required destination verification. Review the resulting rule before enabling wider automatic provisioning.

Check the result

For a URL rule, check both the domain and a path you expect to preserve. For email, use an authorised test message and inspect the provider result. A saved rule alone does not prove that the domain’s DNS and mail routing point to the right backend.

Provider capabilities differ. In particular, confirm email catch-all support on the chosen backend before offering it to customers.
