    good deal,. good stuff, good provider.

    I've had the NAT storage for a while.

    It is reliable.

    Network is fast (you do get those 250 mbits)

    Disk is slow. Fine for my purposes though.

    i get a good vibe dealing with wishosting - initially there was a leap of faith involved, but they have earned my trust.

    @vyas all things considered, wishosting is on my shortlist for a very specific blend of lowend high-grade potassium.

    I haven't used their stuff for high-performance applications but I think they've got some good options for that

    the "unlimited" (but shared) cpu is nice when I want something I can grind on (batch processing)

    I recommend them especially for people who know what they're doing - the open nebula control panel is far from the standard issue solusvm setups people might be used to (but with some nice features for intrepid explorers of the arcane art of provisioning vps instances)

    bottom line is that this provider is experienced, reliable, trustworthy - and definitely worth checking out

    Yeah, I have to leave my props to Wishosting.

    I have never had a issue with the services I have received, I have had about 11 different packages.

    I don't know if that would be appropriate for a single host however i have installed the pockets plugin, pop it on your dev environment and you will see what the possibilities are going forward.

    Yeah I was thinking the same more or less. It's obviously not my intention to include only Wishosting because that'd be unfair to others.

  • SolaireSolaire OG

    @AnthonySmith @uptime @ITLabs and everyone else, would something like this work for all of you? The intention is that it'd be some sort of a rotating box, i.e. you will get a different deal on every page load. For now it'll be limited to Wishosting but I'm more than happy to add other providers to the mix. No affiliates of course. I might be able to release this today or tomorrow including some fixes to the Dark Theme :)

    It's great to have this option for whitelisted providers who don't have a presence here yet. Those who are here can self-promote, but we don't want our community to miss out on great providers just because they are not here (yet).

    @poisson - without thinking too much about "what could possibly go wrong", yes me like it very much :+1:

    Might be good to continue a more nuanced discussion in the new "feature request" thread:

  • flipsflips OG

    Affiliate links were mentioned. What's the policy on those? Ok to share in posts/signatures? (Not that I ever tried.) :p
    ... Wrong thread, maybe. :o

  • williewillie OG

    you will get a different deal on every page load.

    I'd rather not have that variation. Prefer to just have a fixed deal feed that could go into a thread and an RSS. Either there could be a long-running cestpit-like thread that would get a new automatic post whenever an offer apppeared, or there could be a subforum where there would be a new thread created 1x a day, where that day's deals would go, and people could comment on them.

    I'm not sure yet, I'm open for thoughts. Grabbing posts from LES would be difficult in the sense that it'd require a certain format in order for the bot to be able to scrape it. For Wishosting I'm simply scraping their sales page which seems to be a Blesta category with only one package. I guess the easiest way to start off is by allowing providers to submit a URL to their Blesta / WHCMS setup where they'd have a specific category dedicated to sales just like Wishosting.

    But I'm not sure if that is feasible for providers, you guys are the experts so I'm here to listen :)

    That is kind of you but would be interested in how this discussion progresses. One way of looking at things- this is technically not a sales thread because the offer is not a fixed one? Cheers

    I’ve offered to be the guinea pig on scraping the offers from a WHMCS provider.
    Nothing fancy, just kept the link between the two of us.

    When/if the feature goes live, you will all see the special deals.

    @Solaire Data Feeds works, but we have to get the pid first.

    E.g.: https://nexusbytes.com/cart.php?gid=3 (consider EU-Germany-Nano-SSD --> pid = 18)

    This is for WHMCS and Wishosting uses Blesta... and I'm yet to find a solution for Blesta :-( It would be nice if providers enabled WHMCS / Blesta RSS modules to facilitate data capture.

    Thanks :) . Getting the product information from both WHCMS and Blesta is not much of an issue, I was able to write a small piece of software that is able to retrieve products from both WHCMS and Blesta. The discussion that need to be held is more on the level if we're going to post those offers here and if so in what way. I was going to open that discussion yesterday but other things had to be prioritized. For providers the only thing they need to do is create a WHCMS / Blesta category and pass that onto us. Getting all the deals / packages from that category is not much of an issue.

  • InceptionHostingInceptionHosting Retired

    How about we don't have forced participation i.e. scraping up data.

    How about we just issue codes or something for hosts that want to be included for example.

    I create a dummy and hidden product in WHMCS with the following lines:

    LES CODE; oER81CmaW
    Host Name; Inception Hosting Ltd.
    Order Link; https://clients.inceptionhosting.com/cart.php?a=add&pid=183
    Product Name; VZ7 SSD 512
    CPU; 1
    RAM; 512
    RAM Unit; MB
    DISK; 5 GB
    DISK TYPE; SSD
    BW; 500
    BW UNIT; GB
    PRICE; 5
    CURRENCY; EUR
    TERM; YEAR
    IPv4; 1
    IPv6; yes (yes/no)
    DDOS; yes (yes/no)
    Location City; London
    Location Country; UK

    Then something can do targeted scarping, maybe a plugin in the back end here can link codes to URL's for efficiency, each host gets 1 or 2 codes and then the data is pulled in to an array and displayed on rotation say the latest 5.

    Needs some mechanism to determine if the data has been updated I guess but I imagine that is technically fairly simple, makes participation optional, can be used for LES Exclusives only and reduces effort long term while bringing the best deals to the community.

    I think a hidden, LES-only WHMCS/Blesta category would make the scraping opt-in for providers. No need to manage codes per provider, then.
