Enabling and Disabling Portal Features Globally

2 min read

Every major feature in ClientPress can be turned on or off globally. When a feature is disabled, its tab is hidden from all portals and clients cannot access it.


Where to Manage Features #

Go to Settings → ClientPress → Features.


Available Feature Toggles #

Portal Tabs #

  • Discussion — The private messaging thread between team and client
  • Message Board — The topic-based shared discussion space
  • Task Manager — The task list and kanban board
  • Calendar — The calendar view of task due dates (sub-option of Task Manager)
  • Task Status Tracking — Four-stage statuses: To Do, Up Next, In Progress, Complete (sub-option of Task Manager)
  • Files — The file upload and sharing library
  • Deliverables — The formal work submission and approval tab
  • Tools & Links — The curated link and resource board

Deliverables Options #

  • Revision Tracking — Whether clients can request revisions with a count limit
  • Default Revision Allowance — How many revisions clients get by default
  • Global Buy More Link — A URL shown to clients when they’ve used all their revisions
  • Deliverable Categories — Named groups (e.g., Design, Copywriting) with per-category revision limits

Portal Navigation #

  • Portal Landing Tab — The first tab clients see when opening a portal
  • Hide Hubs tab when empty — Hides the Hubs dropdown if a portal has no child portals
  • Hide Docs tab when empty — Hides the Docs tab if no docs are assigned to the portal
  • Hide Guides tab when empty — Hides the Guides tab if no guides are in the portal’s category

How Disabling a Feature Works #

  • The tab is removed from the portal navigation immediately
  • Existing content (tasks, files, messages, etc.) is preserved in the database
  • Re-enabling the feature restores access to all existing content
  • Clients see no error — the tab simply disappears

Per-Portal Exceptions #

Global toggles apply to all portals. There is no per-portal way to enable a feature that’s been disabled globally. However, some features have per-portal settings (like allowing client file uploads) that layer on top of the global switch.
