Download
Download the latest version of WHMCS from https://download.whmcs.com/
Upgrade Process
WHMCS 8.0 and above requires PHP 7.2 or later. WHMCS 8.0 introduced support for PHP 7.4, and WHMCS 8.6 introduced support for PHP 8.1.
Make certain that you update to a WHMCS version that supports your desired PHP version or higher before updating PHP.
- The Automatic Updater only displays updates if you are running a PHP version that is compatible with that WHMCS version.
- For example, if you are running PHP 7.1 or earlier, you must update to PHP 7.2 or later before updating to WHMCS 8.0 or higher.
Automatic Updating
If you are running WHMCS 7.0 or later, you can use the built-in Automatic Updater.
Go to Utilities > Update WHMCS to begin the process.
If the update was released recently, you may need to click Check for Updates before the update will be available.
Release Notes
CentralNic Reseller Module
We now ship a CentralNic Reseller domain registrar module. It uses the new CentralNic Reseller platform.
- After you start using the CentralNic Reseller module, you can select CentralNic Reseller as your lookup provider at Configuration () > System Settings > Domain Pricing.
- This module replaces the RRPProxy module.
If you have configured RRPProxy in WHMCS, the update process will migrate your configuration and any existing RRP Proxy domains to the new CentralNic Reseller module and remove RRPProxy from your system.
Deprecation and Removal Notices
Removed Modules
We have removed the Payson and RRPProxy modules:
- Payson ceases support for our module in January 2023. The update to WHMCS 8.7 will remove the files for this module.
- We no longer support the RRPProxy module. If you previously configured this module, the update process will migrate you to the new CentralNic Reseller module before removing the RRPProxy files.
