Hello,

I realise when I want to add users from the reseller panel,
I don;t have the option to put the Client Name, Address etc.

Because for the Welcome Message,

"Dear Customer" seems quite rude to me. So if you can make tags for

|clientname|, |clientaddress|, |Clientphone|, and total payment.

It would be great.

Thank you,

I like the name token idea... the name field already exists in DA. Not sure about the rest, unless they could be integrated with a DA plugin which access an outside customer database. I think most large hosts would prefer to store their customer details all in one place rather than inside DA.

Adding a total payment token would mean DA would need to handle billing...

You have to consider the fact that not everyone is using DA for commercial web hosting, and may just be using it for themselves or even for their own business, friends etc :)

True, but the proportion of commercial users is *much* higer ;)

Correct, but much higher, much lower or even equal - The panel is for hosting in general.

In my opinion, the name part is ok.... infact I like that.... address, phone and billing information just seems way outside the scope of DA if you ask me.

If it's there, it needs to go under a config to switch on/off and as default, *off* - at least in my opinion - of course feel free to voice your opinion on this here aswell ;)

That's exactly what I think.
