I'm switching web hosts

In case of changing web hosting provider:

  • If the domain name changes
    Example:
    current URL: http://example.net
    new URL: http://example.com
    • Changing the notification URLs in your Merchant Back Office
      1. Go to the Settings > Notification rules menu.
      2. Click the Payment Notification URL call tab.
      3. For each enabled rule, double-click the rule name to access the rule settings.
      4. Search for the Instant Payment Notification URL of the API form V1, V2 section.
      5. Change the URL to notify in TEST mode.
      6. Change the URL to notify in PRODUCTION mode.
      7. Click Save at the bottom of the screen.
      8. Proceed in the same way for each activated rule.
    • Change the default URLs in your Merchant Back Office:
      1. Go to the Settings > Shop menu.
      2. Click the Configuration tab.
      3. Search for the Details section.
      4. Modify the fieldURL.
      5. Search for the Return URL section.
      6. Modify fields Return URL of the shop in test mode and Return URL of the shop in production mode.
      7. Click Save at the bottom of the screen.
    • Checking the URLs submitted by your website
      1. Do you use a proprietary solution?

        Ask your webmaster (or your developer) to check if the different URLs are transmitted in the payment form and modify them accordingly.

        Here is the list of fields to check:

        Field label Description
        vads_shop_url Shop URL
        vads_url_return Default return URL to the shop
        vads_url_success Return URL to the shop in case of accepted payment
        vads_url_refused Return URL to the shop in case of declined payment
        vads_url_cancel Return URL to the shop in case of cancellation
        vads_url_error Return URL to the shop in case of technical error
        vads_url_check Instant Payment Notification URL at the end of the payment
      2. Do you use a payment module provided by Scellius?

        In this case no action is necessary. The module dynamically retrieves the URL configured on your website.

        Simply change the URL in the IPN configuration as described above.

  • If the domain name does not change
    Example
    My current URL: http://example.net
    My new URL: http://example.net
    • Respect the DNS propagation delay
      The Domain Name Server (DNS) propagation is the time taken to account for this change in the DNS configuration.
      Indeed, when you change your host, some requests will continue to arrive to the old host for a few days (48 to 72h).

    DNS is essential to the functioning of the Internet. It allows to establish the correspondence between your domain name (http://example.com) and its IP address (111.22.123.124).

    To access your website, the buyer should use http://111.22.123.124/. Thanks to DNS, the buyer can connect to http://example.com (easier to remember) to access the shop.
