Review the WordPress plugin directory listing, the 5.3.0 GitHub release assets, and the documented wp-admin installation flow first. Done means a built V5 package is available for download and the WordPress plugin marketplace offers the supported V5 release through the admin UI.

Description

Our Wordpress website is administered in the standard low-tech manner, where all plugins and other changes are made through the built-in Wordpress admin UI (/wp-admin/plugins.php).

Although version 5 has been available for over 2.5 years, and version 4 has been considered unsupported for 2 years, the latest version available through the Wordpress admin UI (via the Wordpress plugin marketplace) is only 4.6.2. Also the latest 5.x release published to GitHub are source code only -- they lack a built version of the plugin that could be downloaded and then manually uploaded through the admin UI to upgrade. Therefore, standard Wordpress installations maintained through the admin UI are effectively stuck on an unsupported version of the plugin and unable to upgrade.

Last year (in May), I filed an Auth0 support ticket #02351670 requesting assistance, and I received the following response:

Unfortunately, it's not currently possible to publish a built version in a zip file.
Please look into using Composer for this update.
We're working to get the Marketplace release of V5 as soon as we can.

Migrating to Composer requires significant technical expertise and investment in tooling + build/deploy infrastructure that is a much higher bar than a few clicks in the admin UI, so this requirement is a non-starter for us, as our technical expertise lies in other areas and our Wordpress site is simply used for hosting some protected content accessible to our user base (whose accounts are managed in Auth0).

Since my ticket was closed, https://community.auth0.com/t/auth0-wordpress-plugin-v4-issues/141062 was published last August recommending that users upgrade to v5 of the plugin, but without mentioning the lack of an upgrade option for users who maintain their Wordpress through the admin UI.

Since 28 months have passed since v4.x became unsupported, and 9 months have passed since Auth0 indicated a marketplace release of v5 will be available "as soon as we can", I'm filing this issue in hopes of finally gaining some traction on this. Please let me know if I should direct this request elsewhere.

Reproduction

Open https://wordpress.org/plugins/auth0/ and observe that version 4.6.2 is the latest version.

Additionally, observe that this is documented method for installing the plugin: https://auth0.com/docs/customize/integrations/cms/wordpress-plugin/install-login-by-auth0:

This plugin can be added to your WordPress site using the Plugins screen in the wp-admin:

  1. Log in to an existing WordPress site as an administrator.
  2. Go to Plugins > Add New in the admin menu on the left.
  3. Search for "Login by Auth0"
  4. For the Login by Auth0 plugin, click Install Now, then Activate.

Open https://github.com/auth0/wordpress/releases/tag/5.3.0 and observe that the only assets are "Source code" bundles.

Additional context

This issue is a recreation of #923 (with updated timelines), since that issue was closed as "completed" with the comment that the team is "actively working on it", but there have been no updates for over 4 months, and I am unable to reopen the original issue.
