WHMCS ChrisD

Hi everyone, Thank you for your feedback around Bootstrap 4, we certainly appreciate that you’d like to be able to take advantage of the newer versions of Bootstrap and we do understand this. As with every release, we do work hard to implement a range of improvements that are of benefit to all WHMCS users. As our development team works on new releases we have to prioritise what we deliver in each new version against our roadmap and the feedback we get from users via feedback in all forms including support tickets, feature requests, social media and of course WHMCS.Community alongside the time commitments we have available for a release With version 8 being our next major release this affords the opportunity to ensure we can provide a solid and refreshed foundation to base our future development efforts off, as you’ll see in the beta we have made changes such as introducing User & Client Accounts. If you haven't had a chance to check out the recent What's coming in WHMCS 8.0 blog it gives a good indication of the thinking behind this release. Specifically, and in regards to upgrading to Bootstrap, we understand this is a pain point for some clients and work has commenced on ensuring we can introduce support for Bootstrap 4, although I can not provide a time frame today, it is something the developers are working on. We also need to be aware that for a number of users the upgrading of Bootstrap is a significant undertaking, there is a significant level of backwards incompatibility that will impact users of customised themes and we’re committed to ensuring we make the path as smooth as possible for users. Whilst I know this is not the exact answer you are looking for, I will keep you updated on the process as we work to bring the upgrade of Bootstrap in a future WHMCS release.

Version 8.0 is going to be the next Major version of WHMCS. A major version increment such as this gives us the chance to make more significant behind the scenes changes, as well as undertake major feature work that we've been unable to complete and deliver in shorter release cycles. Here are some important notes on the Removals and Deprecations introduced in Version 8. Removed Legacy PHP Support Product support for the legacy PHP 5.6, 7.0, and 7.1 environments is removed. To install or upgrade, you must run PHP 7.2 or higher. Removed PHP Extensions Requirement The IMAP extension is no longer required. The GD extension is no longer required for some features, but is still required for WHMCS as a whole. Deprecated v4 Theme The v4 theme for the Admin Area is deprecated. If no admin accounts currently use this theme, upgrading will delete it. If the theme is in use, it will remain available for selection. However, admins who are assigned to this theme will move to Blend when you upgrade. Deprecated AutoAuth AutoAuth was announced as deprecated in WHMCS version 7.10, including an option to enable or disable the feature. When you upgrade, the feature is disabled regardless of its previous value. We will remove AutoAuth in WHMCS version 8.1. Removed Boxes and Modern Templates The Boxes and Modern templates have been removed. If products or groups use one of these, upgrading selects a new template that emulates the deprecated template. The system assigns the new template to everything that previously used the deprecated template. Newly-created child templates are based on the Standard template. This upgrade will not touch custom themes. Removed Modules PayMate.eu, PayMate.nz, GameCP, Kayako LoginShare modules. Removed Legacy Files We have removed whois.php from the Client Area file set. The pipe directory was deprecated and has been removed. Use crons/pipe.php instead.

New Minimum PHP Requirement + Library Updates WHMCS 8.0 requires PHP 7.2 or later In version 8.0, we've bumped the minimum PHP requirement to PHP 7.2. This lets us update many of the 3rd party libraries and dependencies shipped with WHMCS. For you, this means we're taking advantage of more modern PHP versions and coding features. In many cases, this means better performance as well as stability improvements. For developers, it's important to read the release notes for full details on how these changes may impact you and your code. Our Updated System Requirements can be found here. We'll also add more information to this thread as we progress thru the Beta Period! If you have any questions around these changes please let us know below!

Users and Client Accounts Users are the new way to log in and share access to accounts In WHMCS 8.0, we've introduced a new concept for end user login management. Account holders gain more control, while Users with access to multiple accounts gain flexibility and convenience. Replacing sub-accounts, in WHMCS 8.0, Users represent any individual with access to log in to the WHMCS client area. Users can be invited and managed via a new dedicated User Management interface, with permission based controls and a simple email-based invite workflow. As a user who needs to access and manage services within multiple different client accounts, WHMCS 8.0 makes it easy and convenient to access and manage services for multiple client accounts with a single login. On upgrade to WHMCS 8.0, no action is necessary to maintain the current configuration. (You must perform several steps when you choose to connect users and accounts.) Contacts will remain associated with each account. Sub-Accounts will become user accounts that can access their associated account. The primary client account will also become a user. Our team have created two new help documents to help you understand this new feature information on Users And Accounts can be found here and steps on Adding and Managing Users can be found here. User and Client Accounts is an important aspect of our testing and we welcome all feedback on this new exciting enhancement to WHMCS!

Version 8 is our next major WHMCS Release. Version 8 provides us with the opportunity to under take a significant behind the scenes changes whilst also rolling out some major features that we can't complete in our normal shorter release cycles. This includes our headline features User & Client Accounts, Email Delivery Provider Support, OAuth2 Support for SMTP & Improvements to currency to name just a few! With this in mind we need your help! The aim with pre-releases is to have them used in as many different configurations and scenarios as possible. There are so many different ways to leverage the functionality available in WHMCS, and so many modules, customizations and add-ons, that nothing beats real-life testing and feedback. Ultimately this allows us to provide a level of Quality Control and Assurance that goes beyond what we can simulate in the lab, and benefits everyone. And we don't just want to know about things that are broken. It is equally as beneficial to us for you to tell us when you test something and it works as it should, as it is knowing about things we've broken. So please, keep us informed, tell us what you've tried, and what the results were, good or bad, and for those who contribute the most, we'll make sure you are recognized for it. 😃 If you haven't had the chance make sure you check out the Preview Site & Release Notes to learn about all the changes!
