I understand that the shutdown of the Marketplace is a huge shock to everyone, thinking it's the end of the world when it's honestly not. 
 
3rd party developers will still be able to offer their applications, and with the help of @Joel R building a directory, that is bound to be good. Have a little trust everyone.
 
Also worth noting: Other forum software developers don't maintain an official marketplace and don't review codes or anything that is being released. It's entirely on the BUYER's responsibility to check for recommendations, reviews, sales, and reputation of the 3rd party developer. As always, think and do research before you buy and if it's too good to be true then it most likely is.

It may be worth checking in with Cloudflare and banning traffic from certain countries like Russia, China, etc. Navigate to the Firewall menu and select the "Tools" option. Choose "IP Access Rules" and create a new rule for the country you want to block. Select "Block" as the action and enter the country code or name you wish to block.

Disposable email filtering is great. Nice job on that.

My question is regarding V5
Will the design change as much as it did when v4 came out?

Why instead of talking about this here, won't you contact authors of apps/plugins you use to find a solution that fits both parties?
I understand that this isn't something you are happy about but until October there is more than enough time to transfer your purchases from MP to Author's website.

To Marketplace developers and the Invision community as a whole, I will be happy to host an independent and collaborative Marketplace directory.  It's already in the works.
I fully support a thriving ecosystem of developers and clients: to extend, to inspire, and to push the boundaries of our platform. Technology is an important differentiator more than ever in the modern web, and working with developers (either privately or through their public mods) can help fine-tune your platform. 
 
More information and invitations will be sent out to active Marketplace devs.  You are also welcome to send me a direct PM.  
Follow this topic for any future updates.  

Yes, that way you will be able to identify the app that is not compatible with php 8.
Running the upgrader did it. 

Yes, we have many clients doing really interesting things with Downloads+Commerce.
I think for developers that are serious about what they are doing, they can really thrive with us out of the way 🙂 

That seems to be a 3rd-party resource. Have you disabled all of them? 
Disable and check if the board is working. Then enable one by one until you see the culprit. 

My question is "Why did you remove the Marketplace" 😄 (joke)
Sorry if the joke sounded lame, but I couldn't resist it. 
My questions are as follow:
What does a typical work day looks like for Charles and what do you do for fun/relaxation when you are outside the office? What do you find most challenging about your position/role?
I am looking forward to the interview. I am sure it will make for an interesting reading.

While I empathise with the situation you are currently in,  having 50 3rd party items is probably what is causing you issues in the first place. Its not really possible for us to debug your system for 3rd party item issues.
The issue with the files showing out of date, is likely just that. The files are out of date. You can upload a fresh set from your client area. If this is the latest release, then you would need to run the upgrade afterwards. I realise that puts you in a bit of a circular situation, however, that would go back to the original point. You need to ensure each of your applications are compatible with PHP 8, or things will indeed fail.
It's worth pointing out here, this is a very good reason why you should really add 3rd party items sparingly, and if you are going to use them, you should ensure they are kept up to date in line with keeping your IPS applications up to date. The issue you have here is its been left so long you have no option but to jump both major versions and a PHP version and update 3rd party items at once. This is always going to leave you in a bit of a precarious position, unfortunately.

Just checked, it will most likely need an uninstall. But that will also delete the application without the ability to extract the files. 
 
I would extract them from your file manager.

I wasn't expecting this outcome. It's no secret it has been declining for years, so action was bound to be made. I like the Dev Directory, it's a very nicely made alternative and it gives more freedom to our Devs. Well done.

Most cloud packages can already use external uploads outside of marketplace. We'll remove the limitation for the others.
