I went to my IDE and it loaded real fast. I also noticed all the entries were blue. Alt the repository info was missing. Yes it is still there in settings, but it no longer tells me if I need and update. I didn’t ask them to do this. I am pissed off.

Do you open a ticket asking why the ide was slow?

I doubt a tech is going to go in and remove the GitHub integration without at least a request by you to fix an issue.

Github IDE integration not officially supported in the UK.

So I personally put up with it being slow just so I know when the more important DTH’s and SmartApps are updating.

Well it was there until about 6:00 PM EST now gone. My settings are still there but all the SmartApps and DHTs aren’t filled out so no automatic checking.

Support got back to me and had me remove certain settings and then it was restored, I don’t know if once the bad entries were removed or by the tech.

I still have not heard from them. I will email again, I am just glad they can fix it, thank you very much for letting me know.

Hello @jasonrwise77,

I was the one helping @joelw135.

If you are having issues with the GitHub integration, please check to make sure that repos you are trying to import from are in the correct format as specified our [docs](http://docs.smartthings.com/en/latest/tools-and-ide/github-integration.html#repository-structure).

The culprit that is causing this issue is a change in the name of a repo by `krlaframboise` from `SmartThingsPublic` to `SmartThings`.

Feel free to PM if you can’t fix the IDE pages.

Can you please help me fix this, I am on the phone being transfered to tier 2 support and I don’t want my ide messed up if you can fix it.

I’m synching @krlaframboise’s repos and do not have this issue.

My active repository has always been SmartThings, but I had a few duplicate items in a forked SmartThingsPublic repository because they were submitted for publication. I added a bunch of read me files stating not to use anything in the SmartThingsPublic folder, but you most likely set it up before I added them.

Since SmartThings is no longer publishing community submitted work, there’s no point in maintaining 2 repositories so I deleted the fork from SmartThingsPublic.

I’m not sure why, but the My SmartApps and My Device Handlers pages in the IDE load about 100x faster since I deleted that repository.
