Hi!

I've got two problems but first the most problematic one at this moment. Somehow I get my IP blocked all of the time, before placing a ticket I'll see if my browser plugins have anything to do with that.

But now after upgrading both AdminTools to 6.0.1 and Joomla 3.9.25 I can't unblock myself due to the error visible in Auto IP Blocking Administration:

Notice: A non well formed numeric value encountered in /home/website/domains/thisismywebsiteURL/public_html/libraries/fof40/Html/FEFHelper/browse.php on line 602

If I want to log in I need to disable AdminTools manually via SFTP to get access. Do you have a solution to unblock the IP?

I tried uploading the Pro install package again but that didn't work. Is it perhaps related to my PHP version?

Hello,

there is indeed a bug in handling banned addresses. The function that is responsible to create the checkbox expects a number, but in that particular case we must pass the IP, which is a string, so the notice (and the wrong behavior) happens.

I'll take a look on how we can fix it, for the moment the only solutions are to disable Admin Tools or to manually delete your IP from the database table #__admintools_autoban

I'll first remove it from the database so AdminTools can stay active.

Thank you Davide.
