~ Fix Permissions will automatically skip over the contents of the cache (front- and back-end), tmp and log directories
# Joomla! red error text displayed when updating Joomla! w/out Akeeba Backup installed (thanks, Fotis, for the heads up)
# The Advanced mode of CSRFShield would also run the basic mode (referrer filtering), causing troubles on many sites
# Notices thrown in the post-installation wizard (thank you @ot2sen!)
# #166: Array upload fields break UploadShield
# Under Joomla! 1.7, with "Disable editing back-end users" enabled, you could edit a back-end user and remove him from the Manager/Administrator/Super Administrator group
# Use of wrong constant could throw a warning message in the post-installation wizard
# Joomla! 1.7 session storage could overflow when using the Fix Permissions feature, locking you out of your site until you cleared your browser's cache and cookies

Admin Tools 2.1.13
================================================================================
! A few sites would never get past the post-setup view

Admin Tools 2.1.12
================================================================================
+ Admin Tools update notification emails (Admin Tools Professional only)
+ Joomla! update notification emails (Admin Tools Professional only)
+ Post-installation wizard, just like the one of Akeeba Backup
+ Adding force-reload button to the Joomla! update view, in case something's stuck
~ Removing default .htaccess Maker exceptions (they didn't make much sense and were only meant as examples)
~ Adapting to Joomla's new stupid policy of providing upgrade packages only from the .0 and the immediately previous release (e.g. 1.5.0 to 1.5.25 and 1.5.24 to 1.5.25, but NOT 1.5.23 to 1.5.25)
# Downloading a Joomla! update failed on hosts were the tmp directory is unwritable
# Non-standard administrator templates could have a problem with the Joomla! update icon module hiding everything on the page

Admin Tools 2.1.11
================================================================================

+ Adding an Apply (Joomla! 1.5) / Save (Joomla! 1.7) button in the WAF Configuration page
+ Added back the WAF Exceptions feature on popular request
+ IP lookup link in security exception email
+ More options for the inactive user removal feature
~ Making all back-end links absolute instead of relative
# DFIShield would block JCE's image and file managers
# Access from blacklisted IPs would send out an email and trigger a log message. That's pointless.
# The CHANGELOG div caused a horizontal scrollbar to display
# The Yes/No labels in Configure WAF are always shown in English in Joomla! 1.6 and later
# Notices thrown by pro.php
# Only Super Administrators could access Admin Tools on Joomla! 1.6 and later
# Javascript error thrown by the admin module if the Control Panel admin module is disabled
# Joomla! 1.7 or later changed the way the integrated extension update system works, rendering our update feeds invalid (Note: Live Update was still functional, as it's a standalone update system)
! .htaccess Maker would always allow PHP files inside the templates directory to be web-accessible.

Admin Tools 2.1.10
================================================================================
- Rolling back WAF Exceptions; the feature does not work with SEF enabled and the workaround causes routing issues
# Undefined variable in UploadShield

Admin Tools 2.1.9
================================================================================
# Changelog link not working on Firefox
! The "System - Admin Tools" plugin could interfere with routing

Admin Tools 2.1.8
================================================================================

# Clean Temporary Directory feature throws notices and warnings when your tmp directory is already empty
# Yes/No values not translated in Master Password view
# Using Apply (Joomla! 1.5) or Save (Joomla! 1.6+) on a new record, didn't display the just saved record, essentialy acting as Save & New

# #57 WAF Exceptions not active when SEF is enabled
# Database schema updates were not applied from Joomla! 1.7.0 to 1.7.1 updates

Admin Tools 2.1.3
================================================================================

# The Joomla! Update feature got confused when running inside a Joomla! 1.7 beta release

Admin Tools 2.1.2

# Enabling the scheduling options in Admin Tools plugin would result in a PHP fatal error
# Minor layout issue in GeoBlocking continents list
# Clicking on the scheduling button in the control panel resulted in an error page on Joomla! 1.6/1.7
# Against common sense, on some servers using JModel outside of a controller *does not* load the respective model and returns false. Ugh!

Admin Tools 2.1.1
================================================================================
- Removed "Anti-leech protection" from .htaccess Maker, as modern browsers stopped sending absolute URIs in the HTTP Referer field
# "cpanelModelCpanel not found" message on Joomla! 1.6's and JCE 1.5.7.x's administrator page
# Sometimes Joomla! wouldn't load the JModel class automatically, leading to a PHP fatal error
# Joomla! 1.6 doesn't run the SQL files on update; ugly but working workaround applied
# Joomla! 1.7-Alpha1 would be proposed instead of Joomla! 1.6.4 as a Joomla! core update
