 Hello Nicholas,

I installed Admin Tools on a site running Joomla 4.2.2. At the root of my directory in which I installed the site, I have a folder (xxxx) which contains Matomo (site traffic statistics). I can no longer access it since activating Admin Tools. I went to "Permissions Configuration" and for the folder in question I set the rights to 777, then I went to "Fix permission" but still unable to access it, I got the message:

403 Forbidden You don't have permission to access this resource.

Is there anything else to do?

Thank you for your help and have a nice day! Jack

Hello,

you should create an exception inside the Htaccess Maker, more info here: https://www.akeeba.com/documentation/admin-tools-joomla/server-protection.html#determine-required-exceptions
