Introduction

Site Security

Admin Tools is a true Swiss Army knife for your site. Our freely available Admin Tools Core fix your files' and directories' permissions, protect your administrator directory with a password, migrate links pointing to your old domain on-the-fly and perform database maintenance, all with a single click. Now with Joomla! 5 support!


We have two currently maintained version families. Admin Tools 7: Joomla 4, PHP 7.2 or later. Admin Tools 6: Joomla 3.10, PHP 7.2 or later. Older versions for end–of–life versions of PHP and Joomla available without support on our site.

A commercial edition (Admin Tools Professional) with extra security-oriented features is also available from our site for a fee. This listing is about the free version, Admin Tools Core.

The software is free of charge, its support is not. You need a subscription to request support. However, its documentation, the troubleshooting information, video tutorials and searching the public tickets is free of charge.

Note: Admin Tools 7 is actively supported on Joomla! 4 and 5. Admin Tools 6 for Joomla! 3 is on security maintenance (no new features or bug fixes will be released).

Ease of use

Support
Don't get me wrong, support is amazing, but his tone is not. Maybe not a native english speaker but his tone is always sarcastic.
Documentation
I used this to: An additional layer of protection for all websites that I work on. I would highly recommend this to all users using joomla. You have to protect your website.
Owner's reply: As you said, we are not native English speakers. One of us is Greek, the other Italian. Tone of voice in written text is very much culture-specific and very hard to dial in when communicating in what is, to us, a foreign language which is why all our replies have a big signature block underneath them which tells you which languages we speak and at which level, the timezone we currently live in, and has the text "Please keep in mind my timezone and cultural differences when reading my replies". We try to do matter-of-fact, neutral tone, but we are limited by the fact that that communicating in a foreign language, over written text, with a global audience from a multitude of cultural backgrounds.
