+## Dropping support for `webclient` listeners and non-HTTP(S) `web_client_location`
+
+Per the deprecation notice in Synapse v1.51.0, listeners of type  `webclient`
+are no longer supported and configuring them is a now a configuration error.
+
+Configuring a non-HTTP(S) `web_client_location` configuration is is now a
+configuration error. Since the `webclient` listener is no longer supported, this
+setting only applies to the root path `/` of Synapse's web server and no longer
+the `/_matrix/client/` path.
