Issue description:

Trying to open the project via the Godot editor tries to get me to convert it somehow so it will work will 4.x, but the message box is so high (even on a 2k monitor) that I cannot close it and have to force Godot to close via the Control Panel.

I managed to get it open by opening project.godot but it still doesn't work. Everything is coded as it was in 3.x and it just breaks. I tried fixing a few things I know (like onready -> @onready), but I couldn't get it to work.

Which project?

I'm referring to the Joypads Demo/Tool, which is linked directly in the official Godot docs for "Why doesn't my controller work?"

Here: https://godotengine.org/asset-library/asset/140

The URL in the documentation is outdated – it points to the 3.x version. You want to use https://godotengine.org/asset-library/asset/2785 instead 🙂

I'll update URLs in the documentation shortly.
