Install Instructions
Let's keep everyone secure with Enterprise Security for WHMCS.
It doesn't matter what version of WSC you use, Paid or Free. All that matters is end-user security. Here you will learn how to install the latest version of WSC in a few minutes. There are two ways to install WSC. FTP & File Manager. We deal mostly with cPanel systems but the same process applies to Plesk and DirectAdmin. Once you install WSC, you will get automated version upgrades on Free and Paid licenses.
Download & Upload WSC
From the DevGB client area download the version of WSC you wish to install. Remember to check the requirements for that version against your WHMCS environment. You must use the correct version of WSC or you could see unexpected consequences like error pages.
- Upload WSC via FTP
Extract the WSC download to your desktop. You will see the modules folder. Upload the entire modules folder to the root of your WHMCS install. For example. If you are using cPanel and your WHMCS was at www.dev.gb.net. You would upload the modules folder to the public_html folder. One uploaded WSC will be located at /modules/addons/tickets_credentials.
- Upload WSC via File Manager
Connect to your hosting account—for example, cPanel. Click "File Manager" and navigate to the directory where WHMCS is installed. Upload the WSC download from the DevGB client area. Use the file manager to extract the files in the root of your WHMCS install. WSC will be located at /modules/addons/tickets_credentials.
Activate WSC
- In the WHMCS administration area navigate to Settings > Addon Modules. Activate the WSC Update and WSC modules.
- Assign admin privileges and enter an Encryption Key.
