It depends on the outcome of the betas, to be honest. At the moment we are also coming up to multiple holidays, which will of course slow things down a little

We certainly get that you are keen. So are we! 🙂 

Is normally this ?

BETA 5 I get this, now I get this for BETA 6

 

It works for some, but not others. What version of PHP are you using? I think there's an issue with 8.3 and delta zips.

Nothing in 2024 due to the holidays. But we'll keep moving forward with beta releases. We're also profiling v5 on very large sites to ensure that it's all running well. You'll notice some optimisation stuff in the release notes for beta 6.

I wasn’t expecting to see another beta release before Thanksgiving. Thanks squad! 

After replacing all files extracted from the zip, now visiting the page it say HTTP ERROR 500, I am missing some steps?

Have you run the upgrader?

Could you tell me how to run the upgrader?

Go to /admin/upgrade/ and follow the instructions.

I did it exactly, but not respond anything

You would then need to check your error logs to see what that internal server error is

Upgrade went smooth. No problems.

That'll be the issue Matt references. There's a known issue with PHP 8.3 that can prevent the admincp upgrade working, it also affects version 4. It's on our radar but we haven't got a fix for it yet. PHP 8.2 should work fine for upgrades (PHP 8.3 has zip library changes)

Thank you for the info. I will switch to 8.2 for the next upgrade.

I can't see the button to insert table.

Just for visibility, I am having the same issue on my end. If I switch to PHP 8.2 to upgrade, will that cause site issues?
