Launch a comprehensive WHMCS knowledgebase without writing hundreds of articles from scratch.

KB Crates is a self-hosted WHMCS addon containing 396 ready-to-use, customer-facing knowledgebase articles organized into eight practical content packs.

Select the packs that match your services, install them through Guided Setup, and manage the resulting articles using the native WHMCS knowledgebase. Every article can be reviewed, edited, reorganized, or customized to match your company and services.

    Covers common WordPress management tasks, including installations, updates, staging, cloning, security, and routine maintenance.

    Explains domain management, nameservers, DNS records, propagation, redirects, subdomains, DNSSEC, and other frequently encountered domain topics.

    Guides customers through creating, downloading, managing, and restoring backups while explaining important recovery considerations.

    Provides symptom-based guidance for HTTP errors, redirects, missing assets, permissions, PHP limits, cron jobs, disk quotas, databases, WordPress, DNS, SSL, email delivery, and FTP connections.

Built for Customization

KB Crates installs its content as native WHMCS knowledgebase records. Once installed, articles can be managed through the familiar WHMCS administration interface.

Customize the wording, add company-specific instructions, reorganize categories, or publish only the content relevant to your services. You remain in control of what your customers see.

Protects Your Local Changes

Editing bundled content should not mean losing your work during a future update.

KB Crates detects locally modified articles and prevents Safe Sync from silently overwriting those customizations. When bundled content and a locally edited article differ, the conflict can be reviewed before deciding how it should be handled.

Available actions include:

  • Keeping the locally customized version
  • Replacing it with the bundled version
  • Resuming management of the article for future updates

Pre-change snapshots provide an additional safeguard before eligible content is updated.

Controlled Content Management

KB Crates provides tools that allow administrators to:

  • Choose which content packs to install
  • Review pack and article status
  • Safely synchronize eligible bundled content
  • Identify locally modified articles
  • Repair missing managed articles
  • Review content conflicts
  • Avoid duplicate-title collisions
  • Check the addon's database schema
  • Manage cleanup separately from normal deactivation

Deactivating KB Crates does not automatically remove the knowledgebase content it created. Destructive cleanup is isolated behind a separate confirmation process to help prevent accidental data removal.

Self-Hosted and Lightweight

All bundled articles are included with the addon release and managed locally within your WHMCS installation.

KB Crates does not depend on a remote content repository or background content-download service. Pack content is loaded only when required, and the addon does not require a background synchronization cron.

Compatibility

  • Self-hosted WHMCS installations
  • WHMCS 8.13
  • WHMCS 9.0
  • PHP versions supported by the applicable WHMCS release

Important Information

Knowledgebase content should be reviewed before publication and customized where necessary to reflect your hosting environment, available services, company policies, and customer workflows.

Some cPanel, WordPress, security, AI, and site-creation features may depend on server configuration, installed software, licensing, or provider availability.

Spend less time building documentation from the ground up and give your customers a stronger self-service knowledgebase with KB Crates.

We beta tested KB Crates over at WreckHost.com and it is fantastic. You don’t have to touch any database manually, import sql files, or touch a line of code.

You upload the add on, activate it, and follow the guided setup. Complete knowledge base setup in under a minute.
