Addon Configuration
Products
Products page includes a list of all products and services from your WHMCS. By default, each product is disabled for cross-selling and awaits quick and easy configuration. Begin the configuration by pressing the 'Edit Product Details' button. |
Now, specify the product details:
Press 'Confirm' when ready. |
Once confirmed, you may move again to the product details to see the image preview and alter it or its background if necessary. |
In this way, enable and configure as many products as you wish. |
Translations

Choose language you are going to use in the client area and then paste the description content in the selected language. Confirm when ready. |
You may add as many language versions ans you only need. Edit (1.) the existing ones, delete (2.) single translations or use mass delete (3.) option. |
Cross-Selling Details
In product Cross-Selling Details section you will find two separate tables. One dedicated to 'Related Items' and the other dedicated to 'Recommended Items'. Both of them are configured in the very same way. To start, simply press the button 'Add Related Item'. |
Related Items
If you have already configured and enabled any of the main products in the previous step, you may now proceed to adding items to the list of 'Related Items'.
'Confirm' the action when ready. |
Repeat this step and add as many elements to the 'Related Items' section of this one item as you need. |
Recommended Items
As mentioned previously, recommended items are added and configured in the very same way as related items. |
Set up the item details:
'Confirm' the action when ready. |
Repeat this step and add as many elements to the 'Recommended Items' section of this one item as you need. |
Allowed actions on related and recommended items:
|
Use mass action buttons to quickly change the status of numerous products or delete them from the list in bulk. Note: The same actions are valid for both related and recommended items. |
Labels
Here you can create labels that can then be assigned to the selected related and recommended products and addons that appear in the cross selling section in the client area. Each label may be distinguished by its own color and displayed text. |
Press the 'Add New Label' button to create the first one. Then, set a header that will appear on the label and additional text that appears below the main header on the label. |
Once the label has been created, it will appear on the list, where you can edit or delete it. To learn how to assign the label to a particular product or addon, see the 'Products' and ' Addons ' sections. |
Addons
Addons page presents a list of all addons available in your WHMCS. You can also modify your addons according to your preferences to decide what they will look like in the client area. |
Click on the edit icon to set 'Background Color' , 'Image' as well as 'Description' of the particular addon. Once ready, confirm your changes. |
Settings
The 'Settings' section allows you to alter the number of items which are displayed in carousel on small, medium and large screen before the client will have to scroll the carousel.
|
You can easily change your preferences by selecting the number of items from the dropdown menu. |
Module Logs

Client Area
Here is a list of all order forms that can be used with Product Cross-Selling module to suggest products:
|
After adding a new product, the list of related and recommended products is updated adequately to the content of the cart. The priority of displaying new suggested products depends on the order of items added into the cart. Review them again searching for interesting bargains. Important: Visible on the tiles and in the order summary discounted prices are triggered by Discount Center For WHMCS module. |
Tips
1. It is advised to suggest products that do not require any additional configuration when adding to cart (e.g. additional fields, configurable options, domains, MarketConnect services etc.) Keep in mind that this is a temporary limitation and will be solved in the future versions of the module. |
2. Products of Server/VPS type when added to the cart from the list of related or recommended cannot be instantly configured. Press 'Edit' to configure the ordered product. |
3. In case a related/recommended item has various billing cycles, the shortest billing cycle is offered for clients in the suggestion box. |
