Powie's WHOIS Domain Check

Description

Checks Domain WHOIS Lookup for availability. Simple insert the [pwhois] shortcode on a page or post.
To select the default TLD use the default attribute: [pwhois default=com] – sets .com as default in the TLD dropdown.
TLD List is limited because of the knowledge of the required whois servers. If you wish to have support for a special TLD please contact me and I will implement it asap.
We cannot guarantee that every domain lookup works perfect, in case that whois servers and how to talk to them can change time by time.
However if you inform us about changes and we can get it to work, we give you a free version of the Pro version of this plugin!

Demos

Demo 1 – at our own page.

Demo 2 – live version at a hosting providers webpage.

Requires

  • php7

Including:

  • Shortcode [pwhois]

LIMITED – only checks .com

Not what I needed. It can only check availability for .com domains, not any TLD as in description. One star for inaccurate description.

Does what it says it does

It works well and is easy to use. What more could you want?

Broke WordPress!

Nobody mentioned you have to set it up first. Uninstalling until it's fix to work with 4.1.1.

Fantastic

I loved it. totally recommended.
Though I think this plugin is one of its kind. I can't find similar plugin on wordpress. But I need 1 more feature in it. I want this to take parameter.

For example, I can go to ChromeIS.com/whois and enter domain/tld to see whois information.
I want such that I type whole URL and it works.
like, http://chromeis.com/whois/my-domain.com

Besides, I can't find plugin for DNS records. Something like http://intodns.com/chromeis.com

Thanks,
