After you've tested your plugins and you know they're compatible, take one more minute to change the readme "Tested up to" value to 6.2. Users can feel more confident that they won't encounter any problems with your plugin when they update to the latest WordPress version.

Want to know more about plugin readmes? Some great information lives here: https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-org/how-your-readme-txt-works/.

Here are the current "Tested up to" values for each of your plugins:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-front-end-profile/ (tested up to 6.2)

If your plugins are compatible in their current version, you do not need to release a new version. All you need to do is update the "Tested up to" value to 6.2 in the readme.txt file under your stable tag directory.

Remember that if a plugin is not marked as compatible with one of the three latest major WordPress releases, a warning will be displayed on its WordPress.org plugin page indicating that the plugin may no longer be maintained or supported. That notice will appear even if the plugin is still perfectly compatible with the current version. The trigger for the notice is strictly the "Tested up to" value in the readme.

If you don't want to keep maintaining your plugin, you can close it down by following the instructions on the advanced tab on your plugin page: https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-org/plugin-developer-faq/#how-do-i-close-my-plugin

Again, thank you for all you do for the WordPress community, and we hope you will like 6.2 as much as we do.
