+ Improved Pro Security Token validation check. The Pro package contains a token file with an individual security token linked to the user account that is checked against the validation server for authenticity. If the file is missing or the token is invalid, you cannot edit the settings and use the extension. The Pro Security Token field has been extended to handle incorrect tokens and blocked accounts. If you encounter an error message related to the token, download the Pro version with your Pro subscription from the linked download page and install it again!
Attention: The Pro extension will not work correctly if the token file or custom field is missing or modified. Never edit or remove the files to ensure correct functionality.
+ Added the Remember successful password inputs for pages option to save successfully entered passwords for Pages Protection to the session, so they don't have to be re-entered on each page load.
^ Bypassed a deprecated call in the calendar field provided by the Joomla! core.
^ Rewrote the usage of the session namespace to avoid the logging of a deprecated message.
# Fixed an issue with the multiple password feature where a message was incorrectly displayed stating that the password was entered incorrectly even though no password was entered at all.
+ Added Brute Force Protection - IP Address Blocking feature. Thanks to Svetoslav for requesting this feature!
+ Added Activate IP blocking for password inputs option. With this option, the plugin blocks IP addresses from accessing the protected content if they exceed the allowed number of submission attempts. All password requests from restricted IP addresses are blocked directly by the plugin. After the specified block time, the IP addresses are removed from the lock list and can enter the password as usual again.
+ Added Number of allowed submission attempts option. The maximum number of submission attempts until the IP lock is triggered and the form cannot be bypassed anymore, even with the correct password.
+ Added Blocking time in seconds option. Blocks the IP address for the selected time span. Default value: 3600 seconds (corresponds to 1 hour).
+ Added Password Protection Rules feature. This option protects the replacement text with a password by pre-defined rules with a unique hash. The replacement text is loaded from an assigned, unpublished article. A hash is generated to map the password rule in the article, which protects sensitive data even if the article is loaded directly from the database (e.g. via a third-party extension). The password cannot be derived from the hash. You may use the following syntax to load the password form at the desired position in the article: [ecr]HASH[/ecr]
