Release highlights

Browser fingerprinting to reduce 2SV prompts. On popular request, we added an optional feature to disable 2SV prompts for a period of time as long as the user is logging in from a device and browser previously marked as secure.

Fixed dark mode. It was always enabled, regardless what your preference was. Also, the backend dark mode didn't work correctly.

Backend access broke for some users. If your user did not have the core.manage privilege for LoginGuard you were unable to log in.

Joomla and PHP Compatibility

Akeeba LoginGuard is compatible with Joomla! 3.8 and 3.9.

Akeeba LoginGuard requires at least PHP 7.1. It's also compatible with PHP 7.2, 7.3 and 7.4.

We strongly recommend using the latest published Joomla! version and PHP 7.3 or later for optimal security of your site.

IMPORTANT! We are dropping support for all versions of PHP which are officially considered End Of Life (EOL) by the PHP project a few months after they go EOL. These versions of PHP no longer receive bug fixes or security updates and MUST NOT be used on production sites.
