  • Added support for Namecheap Registrar API for importing and looking up domains

  • Project Data Formats:
  • There are no differences in project data formats. You can use v3 to open v2 projects and you can use v2 to open v3 projects. Make sure that you have the last released version of v2 when opening and saving projects created using v3.
  • Automatic Whois Configuration for new Global TLDs:
  • Domain Punch Pro v3 will automatically perform the whois configuration when you add a domain with a TLD that has not yet been setup. You no longer have to do manual configurations or wait for a software update. With so many new TLDs becoming available, manually configuring each TLD is not a viable option anymore. This feature will make managing domains a lot more easy.
  • Domain Table Column Setup:
  • The domain table column setup is now a lot different but much better.
  • We made the changes because there are a large number of data columns and it was difficult to locate the columns in a large single list.
  • Whois Diagnostic Tool:
  • A new Whois Diagnostics Tool can be used to quickly find whois servers for most TLDs and ccTLDs and also quickly configure the settings.
  • Color Schemes:
  • Have you changed the colors of the rows in the domain table? These will be lost in version 3. This is because version 3 supports different themes and each theme automatically selects the appropriate row colors.
  • You can change this behaviour from the 'App Settings' dialog. First check the 'Use Custom Domain List Colors' option and then specify the colors for the odd and even rows.
  • You can also set the font used by the domain table from the 'App Settings' dialog.
  • Automatic Domain Lookups:
  • In earlier versions you had to manually start the lookups after adding domains. In version 3 the domains will be automatically queued for lookup when you add them to the portfolio.
  • You can change this behaviour from the 'App Settings' dialog. Uncheck the box that says Do Lookup on Add.
  • Separate Tabs for Raw Registrar and Registry Whois Data:
  • The raw whois data display has been split into separate tabs.
  • Ability to Parse Registry and Registrar Whois Data:
  • In previous versions you had to re-do a whois lookup after making changes to the data extraction tokens. In v3, you can simply parse the registry and registrar whois records again without doing a whois lookup. These options are available in the context menu (right-click) and the ribbon.
  • Improved SMTP support for Domain Alert Emails:
  • You can use SMTP for sending domain alerts through email. In the earlier versions we mostly recommended the use of web-scripts for sending email alerts.
  • Missing Logo Designer:
  • The domain logo designer tab has been removed. This is because you can obtain a free copy of Domain Logo Designer Pro when you purchase Domain Punch Professional v3. This is a more advanced version of the logo designer that supports multiple text objects.
