Make a Full Backup- We cannot stress enough how important it is to *always* take a full backup before attempting any kind of upgrade/install. Both for WHMCS and any other software you use. A full backup should be taken of both the WHMCS files and the database.

Post-Installation

After completing the installation, you may encounter errors or blank products on pre-created or pre-made templates pages. To resolve this, we recommend configuring your new Croster WHMCS Theme.

Key Configuration Steps:

Product Groups

Choose the product groups you want to feature and link to internal pages. The theme will automatically retrieve:

The lowest product pricing from each group.
The description from WHMCS Admin >> Products/Services >> Product Groups.

Products

Similar to the WHMCS order form, the Croster pricing sections are dynamic. To make your plans visible on pages, use the Page Manager to select your plans, If WHMCS is newly installed and no plans or packages have been added yet, you must add them first. Otherwise, the Page Manager will display an empty plan list.

Product Descriptions

Ensure the product descriptions in WHMCS Admin >> Setup >> Products/Services follow the guidelines.

Domain TLDs

To select the TLDs you wish to display in Banner Domain and Featured TLDs section, You must need to setup all TLDs in WHMCS domain Pricing if not setup.

By following these steps, you’ll ensure your Croster WHMCS Theme is fully functional and optimized for visibility and usability.
