Contents
Company Name
Enter your company name as you wish it to appear throughout the WHMCS Admin and Client Areas.
Email Address
This is the default email address that will appear as the sender on all of the email that WHMCS sends to you and your customers.
Domain
The URL for the domain that hosts your WHMCS installation.
Logo URL
The URL for the logo image that will appear in email messages, on invoices, and in the WHMCS Client Area.
Pay To Text
The text to display on invoices as the Pay To details.
WHMCS System URL
This setting defines the URL to use to access your WHMCS installation. This is based on the location of the files on your server. If possible, WHMCS attempts to set this value automatically during installation. If you use the command line for installation, WHMCS will prompt you for this value. For example, http://www.example.com/members/.
We recommend installing an SSL certificate. This will let you enter the SSL URL to enable encrypted connections between WHMCS and your customers and between your staff and the Admin Area. For example, https://www.example.com/members/.
System Theme
The system theme that you want to use for WHMCS's Client Area. We ship two by default:
- Twenty-One was introduced in WHMCS 8.1. We recommend that you use this system theme. For more information, see New Twenty-One Client Area Theme.
- Six was introduced in WHMCS 6.0. We plan to remove this system theme in a future WHMCS version.
In WHMCS 8.1 and higher, when you select a System Theme, WHMCS will validate it for compatibility with the order form templates you use.
For information on developing your own custom system theme, see Themes in our Developer Documentation.
Limit Activity Log
The maximum number of system-related entries to store in Configuration () > System Logs or, prior to WHMCS 8.0, Utilities > Activity Log. System-related entries display the System user and UserID 0.
Other Entries
Entries for specific clients are stored indefinitely for auditing purposes. You can prune client-specific log entries at Utilities > System > System Cleanup.
Records to Display per Page
The number of records to display in the Clients list, lists of invoices, and other lists in WHMCS.
Maintenance Mode
Enabling this option will prevent your customers from accessing the Client Area and display the Maintenance Mode Message (or redirect to another URL, if you enter a Maintenance Mode Redirect URL.
xyz
Admins will still be able to see the client area. Both the API and hooks will continue to function unobstructed while Maintenance Mode is enabled.
Maintenance Mode Message
If you enable Maintenance Mode, your customers will see the message you enter here in the Client Area.
Maintenance Mode Redirect URL
When you enter a URL here, clients will be redirected there when Maintenance Mode is enabled instead of seeing the maintenance message.
Friendly URLs
When you use Search Engine Friendly URLs, for example, a URL that looks like this:
becomes
You can enable these for the MarketConnect landing pages, announcements, downloads, and knowledgebase sections of the WHMCS Client Area.
WHMCS will automatically detect the best option based upon your server environment and highlight it with a green background. If you select a different option, the status indicator will switch to Manual Override:
- Fully Friendly Rewrite — For example, http://awesome.host/store/ssl-certificates/dv
- Friendly index.php — For example, http://awesome.host/index.php/store/ssl-certificates/dv
- Basic URLs — For example, http://awesome.host/index.php?rp=/store/ssl-certificates/dv
For a description of the system requirements of the different options, see Friendly URLs.
To re-check your environment and reset to the recommended system detected setting, click the refresh button.
An Advanced Settings option is also available to further customise how this feature behaves. For more information, see Friendly URLs. We only recommend changing the advanced settings if you are confident maintaining your own mod_rewrite rules.
