System : Joomla. 4.4.5 / Admin Tools 7.5.3


As superuser by clicking System / site template style / Template / Template Options
I get this error message from Admin Tools:

"403
We detected that your latest request may have been part of suspicious activity and has been blocked. If you believe you are getting this message in error please let us know through our site's contact form."

Only when I enter my IP in the "Site IP Allow List" does the problem disappear.

How can I ensure that administrators/Superusers whose IP is not entered in the "Site IP Allow List" in Admin Tools can also change template style options?

 

Regards
Dietmar

Remove your IP from Site IP Allow List.

Reproduce the problem where it blocks you.

Go to administrator, Components, Admin Tools for Joomla, Web Application Firewall, Blocked Requests Log and find the latest entry with your IP address. You will see a Target URL and a Reason.

If the Reason reads template or "template= in URL" then go to administrator, Components, Admin Tools for Joomla, Web Application Firewall, Configure WAF, Cloaking tab, set "Allow site templates" to Yes, click on Save & Close in the toolbar.

If it was a different Reason, or the above instructions did not help, please past the Target URL and Reason into your next ticket so I can better help you.
