Client Area Template Files

WHMCS is 100% customisable. Utilising the Smarty templating system, with the WHMCS template files you can:

• Change the entire look of all aspects of the client area
• Add your own HTML & PHP code to extend the system
• Add your own text strings which change based on the users language selection

Basic Steps

1. Duplicate the "default" folder in the templates folder and rename it to a custom name
2. You can then make your changes to the template files as required - header.tpl and footer.tpl affect the header and footer of all pages - all other template files are for their respective pages
3. Once complete, upload your new templates folder to the templates directory of WHMCS on your server
4. Finally, to activate the template, login to the admin area, go to Configuration > General Configuration and on the first tab of the general configuration choose your custom template name from the Template dropdown menu.
