Hi again, I stopped updating every detail because I'd nattered on long enough without a reply (grin), but in the meantime I've determined that at least with my webhost and/or anything else that might be relevant with my situation (though I've no idea what) it only works in PHP 8.1.16, not the earlier 8.0.28?
I don't know why, since the ips4.php file worked in both, but then when I tried to run the updater, it only worked when I had the web hosting control panel for the later PHP?
I just switched it back on a whim, just to make sure I'd checked and rechecked all details and lo and behold, it updated in the later one when it loaded nothing but errors in the previous?
So I'm checking the board out now, I can't say everything is intact yet but the index page loads.  🙂

OH . . . somehow I thought it was a plugin, as in, within the ACP, System > Site Features > Plugins.
So it's actually that same area, but Applications?
And then once I go there, as that area of the ACP says "Select the .tar application distribution you would like to install," I would just select the entire downloaded .tar file, not anything that was extracted?
(If you could go ahead and confirm that, as I'm a bit of a scaredycat when it comes to installing things, that'd be great, thanks!)
