Proclaim 10.7.1 Stable

Released on: Tuesday, 22 September 2026 12:43

Proclaim 10.7.1 is a maintenance release. It closes two ways credentials could end up in server logs, hardens how template code is written to disk, fixes three faults that only ever appeared on a freshly installed site, and stops two places where the admin quietly discarded your work.

Please rotate these keys after updating

Two settings screens used to send credentials as part of the web address rather than in the request body. Web servers, proxies and analytics routinely record full addresses, so those values may be sitting in log files.

  • Your AI provider API key, if you use the AI assistant.
  • Server Test API credentials, including the YouTube Data API key and the Resi client secret, if you have used the Test API button.

The release stops it happening. It cannot remove what was already written, so issue new keys and retire the old ones.

Template code is written more carefully

A template code record becomes a real PHP file in your site. Three faults in how that file was named and placed are fixed: the filename is now validated on every path that writes one, a record can no longer overwrite a layout the package itself ships, and a template's title can no longer decide where an export is written or what a download is called.

Permissions for template code are also clearer. Because those files are PHP that your site runs, being allowed to create or edit them is as powerful as being a Super User. The permissions screen now says so on the three settings that carry it, the edit form says it above the editor, and System Health reports any group that has it without being a Super User. Nothing is taken away — if delegating this is deliberate, the finding can be dismissed.

Fixed on newly installed sites

  • The Layout Editor tab showed a Joomla error page instead of the editor. It affected every fresh install; a site that had been configured never saw it.
  • Two accessibility faults: the control panel and location wizard now meet the WCAG AA contrast requirement, and article information lists are marked up so a screen reader can read them.

The download button appears again

On a site with Simple Mode switched off that had never chosen a download button style, the download control on a media file rendered as an empty link: nothing to click, and nothing a screen reader could announce. The style is not one the installer sets, so this was the state of any site that had not picked one deliberately. It now falls back to a labelled download icon.

The admin no longer discards your work

  • Saving Administrative Settings removed every System Health finding you had dismissed, so they all came back. Settings that have no field on the form are now kept.
  • A save that fails validation repopulated the form from the stored record rather than from what you had typed, silently reverting your edits. Eleven screens were affected, including messages, teachers, series, locations, podcasts, comments and templates.

System Health

  • The summary chips are now filters. Click Needs attention to see only what needs looking at; click again, or Show all, to go back. The panel still opens showing everything.
  • A new check reports Schema.org records stored where the edit form cannot see them, which can happen on sites upgraded from older versions.
  • A new check reports which user groups can write template code, as above.

Also in this release

Better test coverage behind the scenes: the browser tests now run on every change against both Joomla 5 and Joomla 6, the nightly checks can report their own failures, and dependency updates across the board.
