That fixed it, thank you.

Yes, you may go ahead and try it. It won't hurt anything, but even if it does, all users understand they have opted into a beta and they expect bumps.

When I try to upload a new file in the downloads system, a page appears that says "Something went wrong. Please try again.". The image I am including with the uploaded zip file is a standard JPEG. System log reveals this error: InvalidArgumentException: (0) #0 /home/xxxxxx/public_html/community/system/File/File.php(1578): IPS\_Image::create('????\x00\x10JFIF\x00\x01\x01\x01\x00...') #1 /home/xxxxxx/public_html/community/applications/downloads/modules/front/downloads/submit.php(336): IPS\_File->thumbnail('downloads_Scree...') #2 /home/xxxxxx/public_html/community/system/Helpers/Wizard/Wizard.php(181): IPS\downloads\modules\front\downloads\_submit->IPS\downloads\modules\front\downloads\{closure}(Array) #3 /home/xxxxxx/public_html/community/applications/downloads/modules/front/downloads/submit.php(685): IPS\Helpers\_Wizard->__toString() #4 /home/xxxxxx/public_html/community/system/Dispatcher/Controller.php(107): IPS\downloads\modules\front\downloads\_submit->submit() #5 /home/xxxxxx/public_html/community/applications/downloads/modules/front/downloads/submit.php(35): IPS\Dispatcher\_Controller->execute() #6 /home/xxxxxx/public_html/community/system/Dispatcher/Dispatcher.php(153): IPS\downloads\modules\front\downloads\_submit->execute() #7 /home/xxxxxx/public_html/community/index.php(13): IPS\_Dispatcher->run() #8 {main}Backtrace: #0 /home/xxxxxx/public_html/community/init.php(1049): IPS\_Log::log('InvalidArgument...', 'uncaught_except...') #1 /home/xxxxxx/public_html/community/system/Helpers/Wizard/Wizard.php(227): IPS\IPS::exceptionHandler(Object(InvalidArgumentException)) #2 /home/xxxxxx/public_html/community/applications/downloads/modules/front/downloads/submit.php(685): IPS\Helpers\_Wizard->__toString() #3 /home/xxxxxx/public_html/community/system/Dispatcher/Controller.php(107): IPS\downloads\modules\front\downloads\_submit->submit() #4 /home/xxxxxx/public_html/community/applications/downloads/modules/front/downloads/submit.php(35): IPS\Dispatcher\_Controller->execute() #5 /home/xxxxxx/public_html/community/system/Dispatcher/Dispatcher.php(153): IPS\downloads\modules\front\downloads\_submit->execute() #6 /home/xxxxxx/public_html/community/index.php(13): IPS\_Dispatcher->run() #7 {main}This behavior is new since I upgraded from IPB 4.2 to 4.7.20. I am thinking it is probably best to resolve any issues before moving forward with the upgrade to v5. I also tried reverting to the default forum theme, but it made no difference. All required information is included in the client area.

I do not understand what this means. What should my next step be?

No problem, I have a REST-based system running fast enough now. If this does become available in the future I will be interested in trying it.

This sounds like an IPS tech support job, right? I have updated my access information in the client area. You may make the necessary fix for this.

I am trying to minimize REST API query response times, and I have found that simply decreasing the size of the returned data is the easiest way to improve response time, before doing anything else fancy. So I started looking at the GraphQL documentation, since that only returns the specific requested data: https://invisioncommunity.com/developers/graphql However, I do not see any information for the Downloads system, the one thing I use the web API for. 😆 Is this not supported in GraphQL?

There is no category 29 in our downloads system.

Yes! UnderflowException::0 lang_not_exists__downloads_category_29 What does this mean? 😵

I have passed all the requirements in the "Prepare for v5" page, but I don't see any options to upgrade from the admin CP. So uh, how do I do this?

The upgrade from 4.2 to 4.7 seems to have fixed this. API responses seem to be about the same speed as the rest of the site now.

I am currently on IPB v4.7.5. Should I upgrade straight to version 5, or should I install v4.7.20 first, and then update to 5?

Oh, I thought the sidebar was just another view option the user selected.

I would like to see that left side panel in action, but it does not seem to be an option on this site? Is it disabled or is there something else I need to do to bring it up?

It seems highly dependent on the number of results returned. Just using an API key and a browser, when perPage is set to 1 I estimate it takes about one second to return. With perPage set to 100 it takes about 23 seconds. But when I am browsing through the web interface, the page load times are very fast.
