− | # Navigate to '''Configuration (<i class="fa fa-wrench" aria-hidden="true"></i>) > System Settings > Addon Modules''' or, prior to WHMCS 8.0, '''Setup > Addon Modules''', and the addon you have uploaded will be listed.
| |
− | # Click '''Activate''' next to the addon you wish to enable. The addon is now active within your WHMCS.
| |
− | # Click '''Configure''' and select which administrator roles you wish to have access to the addon by enabling them under the '''Access Control''' section. Some addons will also have additional options specific to the addon module.
