Heads Up
18 October 2021.
The Joomla! Project announced changes to the Update Process that users of Joomla! 2.5.1 through to 4.0.3 (and subsequent releases) need to be aware of.
These changes mean that your Joomla! CMS will in future fail to update unless you check (and if necessary amend) your installation's HTACCESS file.
