Admin Tools 5.4.0 Stable

Released on: 2019-10-21 07:17 CDT

What's new?

IPv6 dynamic DNS support. In the Administrator IP whitelist page and the WAF configuration's Never Block these IPs fields you can now enter dynamic DNS domain names which resolve to IPv6 addresses by prefixing them with #.

Support for Dark Mode. A darker color template can be optionally enabled for the backend. Alternatively, you can choose it to be enabled automatically on supported browsers (currently only Safari on macOS and iOS / iPadOS).

Support for Joomla 4 Download Key management in the Update Sites page. Joomla 4 includes its own Download ID management in the Update Sites page. This release makes use of that on Joomla 4. This feature is experimental as Joomla 4 is still in alpha.

Bug fixes and minor improvements. Please take a look at the CHANGELOG below.

Joomla! versions supported

We only officially support using our software with the latest Joomla! release branch, 3.9. We strongly advise you to run the latest available version of Joomla! for security reasons. Older versions of Joomla! have known major security issues which are being actively exploited to hack sites.

Our software should still run on Joomla! 3.8. However, we do not test with these versions and we no longer treat breaking support for these obsolete versions of Joomla! as a bug.

PHP versions supported

We only officially support using our software with PHP 5.6, 7.1, 7.2 or 7.3. We strongly advise you to run the latest available version of PHP on a branch currently maintained by the PHP project for security reasons. Older versions of PHP have known major security issues which are being actively exploited to hack sites and they have stopped receiving security updates, leaving you exposed to these issues.

Our software should still run on PHP 7.0. However, we do not test with these versions and we no longer treat breaking support for these obsolete PHP versions of PHP as a bug.

Support for PHP 5.6 will be removed once Joomla 4, with a minimum requirement for PHP 7, is released.

Please note that earlier PHP versions including but not limited to PHP 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5 are no longer supported and our software no longer works on them.
