Admin Tools compatibility
AI Boost for Joomla and Akeeba Admin Tools can both write your site’s robots.txt. When you run them together, the robots.txt card on AI Boost’s Dashboard says Another extension that can write this is switched on, so you can decide which extension owns that file.
Choose one robots.txt owner
Only one extension should generate robots.txt. Pick one of these:
- Let AI Boost write into it. Keep Let AI Boost write into your robots.txt file switched on, on the Robots.txt screen, and turn Admin Tools’ own robots.txt feature off. AI Boost keeps one marked block at the end of the file and never touches a line you wrote.
- Keep Admin Tools in charge. Switch that setting off on the Robots.txt screen, and AI Boost takes its block out of the file again.
Running both at once splits your crawler rules across two sources, which is where an accidental Disallow tends to creep in.
.htaccess hardening and allowed paths
Admin Tools can also add .htaccess hardening. If that hardening blocks sitemap.xml or llms.txt from loading, add both as allowed paths in Admin Tools so AI Boost’s generated files stay reachable.
Check it on the Dashboard
While Admin Tools is enabled, the robots.txt card on the Dashboard keeps its note. Site Health fetches your live robots.txt and reports what actually arrived, so you can confirm what crawlers read before you go live.
