==Release Notes==
 
 
===Asset/Template Changes===
 
 
We've introduced compression of all asset files. This reduces the number of external requests, giving improved performance throughout the product. Delivering faster load times for admins and clients.
 
 
====Which Templates have this?====
 
 
For the Client Area, the templates Six and Standard Cart use minified files. For the Admin Area, both v4 and Blend templates use minified files.
 
 
====Why change this?====
 
 
Speed. On average, WHMCS 7.1 performs 50% fewer requests and pages load up to 25% faster.
 
 
====Can I still add custom css?====
 
 
Yes, definitely. By using the existing [[Customising_the_Six_Theme#Applying_Custom_CSS_Styling|custom.css]] functionality for the six template. The custom.css file for the Six template can apply overrides to the Six and any Order Form Template.
 
 
 
===Stripe===
 
 
WHMCS 7.1 introduced an official WHMCS Stripe module. Find the WHMCS module can in modules/gateways/. Full documentation for Stripe is here.
 
 
====What if I have an existing Stripe Module?====
 
WHMCS has attempted to make the module a drop in replacement for other third party modules. After upgrading, configure the module in Setup > Payments > Payment Gateways. Once configured, disable the third party module, choosing Stripe as the replacement.
 
 
====What if my module has the filename "stripe"?====
 
On upgrade, replacement of the third party module will be automatic. Configuration of the module is still required in Setup > Payments > Payment Gateways.
 
 
====What if the third party module had template changes?====
 
With the official WHMCS module, there are no template changes. Remove any changes completed to your custom template to avoid any conflict issues.
 
 
====Can I use Stripe with stored Credit Card details?====
 
The Stripe module converts stored details to a token on automatic capture. It is not possible to store or view credit card details in full when using Stripe in WHMCS.
