Backpack only works on Scratch 2.

That's strange, and even then it seems to be glitched?

You means Scratch 3, right? I kinda forgot to implement it in Scratch 2, so it isn't supposed to work there.

I get a error loading backpack, on Scratch 3 only.

Weirdly enough, it works fine on my local development server, but it doesn't on here. It's hardcore debugging time!

Edit: The problem seems to be with the UUIDField, or more precisely, how its behavior changes slightly on certain database software.

Edit 2: Works fine on MariaDB for me

Edit 3: I managed to reproduce it. What happened is that Django 5.0 made it so that on MariaDB, UUIDs are stored as the "uuid" type, which includes the dashes, instead of "char(32)", which did not, but they did not make it so that it automatically migrates. That's kinda dumb, but oh well, I guess it's my problem now.

Chipmunk still hasn't applied the update to the website yet. Right now, this website's code is outdated by like 5 days, so we're currently missing out on quite a few bug fixes and features, like search for instance.

Does that mean search will finally work as well?

Yes, one day. But Chipmunk seems to be pretty busy these days.
