Admin Tools 7.8.2 Stable

Released on: 2025-09-01 01:53 CDT

What's new?

Preliminary support for Joomla 6. This version comes with preliminary compatibility with Joomla! 6. At the time of this writing, Joomla 6.0.0 Beta 1 has been released. That's our compatibility target. We expect more changes to take place before Joomla! 6 stable is released, with an as yet unknown impact on compatibility. We will keep following Joomla 6 development and adapting our software as necessary.

Removed wget and pycurl from the default list of blocked user agent strings. Due to the prevalence of these libraries in tools and third party services legitimately used with Joomla sites we decided to remove WGet and pycurl from the default list of user agents to block. This removal will NOT take place against existing installations, only new ones. For existing installations, you need to remove these from the .htaccess Maker configuration manually if and only if you are experiencing problems with tools and third party services accessing your site.

Improve Unicode support in Bad Words filtering. You can now block words with international characters such as Greek, Cyrillic, Chinese etc.
