Announcements

The announcements system, along with showing announcements on the WHMCS homepage, will also output announcements into an XML RSS Feed for use in readers and on other websites.

You can access this feature at Support > Announcements.

  • For issues that will affect client services, you may wish to configure notices at Support > Network Issues instead.
  • If you want to completely prevent customers from accessing the order form or Client Area, use Maintenance Mode.

Announcements

Announcements display on the Client Area Homepage in the Recent News section.
