 Hi!

I recently updated my Hikashop Extension to Version 3.0.0 and only use the standard paypal payment funtionality. Everything works fine as long as the admin tools plugin is deactivated.

When the plugin is switched on, it is not possible anymore to put a product in the cart, and after a while I get a white screen with the message "You are a spammer or an otherwise bad person"

Hikashop and Paypal communicate during the checkout process, and Admin Tools somehow seems to interpret this data exchange as an attack. Where and how can I solve this problem? - Thanks,
Christoph

Hello,

can you please take a look at the Security Exception page and post here the reason of the block?

Hi,

In the Secerity Exeption page (of the Web Firewall) I have only listed com_hikashop.
When I go to the admin tools statistics, there are a few items, in all of them the reason "tmpl=' in der URL" displayed.
Can you work with that?
thanks, Christoph

Mhm.. the log file should have more details about the exception.
You should find it inside Joomla log directory, if you download it and open it, you should find the exact reason of the block.
In this way we can find a workaround.

Ok, now we have found the origin of your issue.
Inside Admin Tools WAF configuration page, in the Visual Fingerprint protection, add the value ajax inside the field List of allowed tmpl= keywords.
That should fix your issue.
