 * Ok – that was simple. I just needed to add my homepage to the allowed web origin
   config in the Auth0 App. I think what had happened is that the Application definitions
   in Auth0 had growth a bunch of new fields over time, and I had not configured
   them. Having done that now it seems to be working.

 * We are not using implicit (that option is turned off in settings).
 * The version is:
 * [https://cdn.auth0.com/js/lock/11.5/lock.min.js](https://cdn.auth0.com/js/lock/11.5/lock.min.js)
 * No custom database.
 * The login from Auth0 users with username/password always used to work. The issue
   below is likely the cause since Auth0 deprecated the legacy APIs. Not sure what
   I need to do to make this work from the plugin. I really don’t want to have to
   mess around in PHP code to make this work, and don’t feel like paying for a custom
   domain.
 * The JS console shows a CORS problem:
 * Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote
   resource at [https://akanacloud.auth0.com/co/authenticate](https://akanacloud.auth0.com/co/authenticate).(
   Reason: CORS header ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ missing).

 * I made some progress. I created a new local (to wordpress) admin user directly
   in MySQL, and was able to login using login.php?wle. I found that the Auth0 update
   hadn’t worked so completed that, including all the steps around using the management
   API with a one-time token. All good. I can now login again using social accounts(
   Google). I still can’t login using any locally created accounts (show in the 
   list in Auth0 as Username-Password). I can create new accounts, but can’t login
   to these. What happens now is that when I try and login (or complete the registration
   step – the final login – for a new user) the lock form shows a red error “We’re
   sorry, something went wrong when attempting to log in.” at the top of the form.
 * I’m not seeing any errors in the Auth0 error log in wordpress, or in the Auth0
   dashboard.
 * Not really sure what’s happening at this point.
 * Thanks,
 * Ian

 * Oh dear, I’m working with Fory on this and it’s just got worse. We found that
   users authenticating via Google were working ok, it was the users created directly
   in Auth0 as self-registered that were not working. I had a Google (gmail) user,
   but that user wasn’t an admin. We dove into the WP database and changed my user
   to be an admin, perfect. Then decided once I was logged in that we should update
   the Auth0 plugin. That seemed to work, but now we can’t login as my Google user
   anymore. Attempts to login result in the message that “The URL “[https://billing.akana.com/wp-login.php&#8221](https://billing.akana.com/wp-login.php&#8221);
   is not in the list of allowed callback URLs.” Ok – I added that to the list of
   callback URLs allowed for the application, but of course that doesn’t help, because
   it’s the wrong URL. It should be going to [https://billing.akana.com/index.php?auth0=1](https://billing.akana.com/index.php?auth0=1).
 * Now because we can’t login, we can’t change anything.
 * I believe the root of the whole issue is that early August deprecation of the
   legacy lock API. But I don’t know how I can fix any of this now.
 * Ian
