This can include benign issues like a plugin author discontinuing development or moving the plugin distribution to their own site, but some might also be due to security issues. In any case, future updates may or may not be available, so it is worth investigating the cause and deciding whether to temporarily or permanently replace or remove the plugin.

The plugins works fine, and we are using it one a large number of sites using WordPress 6.2.x Probably, it would be enough to update "tested with WordPress 6.2.xxxx" and publish a new release.

Otherwise, users could be afraid this plugin were "really" abandoned...

PS: Thanks for your work!

It would be fantastic if we could just get a release updating the testing information. This is a great plugin and would be a shame to have to switch to something else because of this.

Thank you for all your efforts, it is appreciated.
