Templot Club

21 October 2026

Serious security problems have been reported with the PHP web language which the Templot Club forum (and many other forums) use.

The web hosting provider is working on a fix.

Until I have confirmation that the problem is safely fixed, Templot Club is temporarily offline. Apologies.

Updates will appear here when I have more information. Press CTRL+F5 to refresh this page to see them.

Martin.
