It has been more than six months since LB launched SuperSite 2, a Free Web 2.0 Storefront for you to sell all LB products. Effective, March 31st 2013, LB will be discontinuing product support and feature releases for their old Storefront, SuperSite 1. If you have not yet moved your business to SuperSite 2, we request you to kindly do so as quickly as possible before the above date un case of any issues 🙂
LB will be deprecating all SuperSite 1 services on the 30th of April, 2013.
In order to secure the way your business connects to the platform via the API, LB have finally introduced a new unique API ‘key’ that will be used to authenticate your API calls.
Currently, the authentication process requires you to use your username and password to connect to the API. Although this process is encrypted, LB have removed all vulnerabilities by introducing a unique API key to connect to our system. You can find your unique API ‘key’ inside your Control Panel at the below mentioned path (from 11th February).
Control Panel > Settings > API
Effective 11th February, 2013 you will be able to get the API key and make calls to the platform using the new API ‘key’.
Kindly ensure that you integrate the new API ‘key’ to your existing API setup to ensure that your API calls continue to work seamlessly. You can find more information about the new call in our knowledgebase.

LB are happy to announce the successful migration of OrderBox to the TexasOne DataCenter in Austin,TX that happened on the 24th of November, 2012. As part of this migration, they’d like to highlight a couple of important changes that need to be made.

| SuperSite 1 | 67.15.184.7 | 209.99.17.18 |
| SuperSite 2 | 67.15.184.210 | 209.99.17.23 |

LB have automatically made these changes for Domains that are using the platform DNS and are pointing to our name servers. However, if your Domains’ DNS are managed on another platform, you will need to manually update its name servers and DNS to point to the new IP addresses mentioned above.
We urge you to review the list of changed IPs above, and if you have pointed your URLs to the older IPs, we recommend changing them at the earliest. We also request you to send out the same details to your resellers so they can make the necessary changes if needed.
You will have time till the 24th of December, 2012 to make these changes, thus we strongly recommend that you go ahead with making these changes to avoid any issues or down times post this date.
LogicBoxes in the last hour have had a platform failure suspending all reseller account under many registrars, this is also including their own brands.
We are speaking with LB on the phone to get this resolved, I will update this blog post as soon as I have further information.
If your account shows as suspended, DO NOT request a password reset as this will achieve nothing and will then make matters worse going forward (resetting of passwords etc).
LogicBoxes have now updated their own forums :
The topic can be found here: http://forums.myorderbox.com/index.php?showtopic=4367
01:17GMT :
LogicBoxes are running a series of DB updates to revert incorrect changes.

03:30 GMT
The platform has update that created this issue has been fixed, all reseller accounts are as they were before this issue, same for customer accounts.
