Administration Joomla! 3.x • Re: Text Filter Settings will not save

You should be creating custom CSS in user.css.

Why is that? Pretty much every template I use on my various sites utilizes custom.css.

I wonder if JCH optimise is contributing to the problem; disable that and see if you can save the text filter settings.

Tried that, no go.

Some observations - issues that should probably be fixed sooner or later (perhaps not directly connected to the current issue):

Out of date joomla.
Elevated file permissions (775 should be 755)
Out-of-date PHP (should be using PHP 8.1 at least but this may result in unpredictability concerning Joomla or your extensions).

I will look into all of these things, though I can say that I'm stuck with PHP 7.4 until the template and some of the other outdated extensions get replaced with J4 compatible ones, at which point I could do a J4 upgrade. Whether all of that is in the client's budget is also a consideration. I may try rolling back to the last functional backup and then updating the various extensions one at a time to find the culprit.
