Description
The composer package name is auth0/wordpress, which is logical but it means you end up with a directory called "wordpress" in the plugins directory containing this plugin.
I know it's a pain but ideally this package would have auth0 somewhere in the name as well as the namespace. I can work around it for now I think so not an urgent one but worth flagging.
Reproduction
- Follow composer install steps in the readme in this repo

Actually looks like the work around I was going to use won't work because this package doesn't require
composer/installers: ^1 || ^2, which it should do as it's usingwordpress-pluginfor the type.jimihenrik commentedon Oct 27, 2026
Oh, just realized this is quite an old issue. Anyway... For others that may be searching for this.
As long as you have
composer/installersthe workaround works fine. Thecomposer/installerslets you pin individual packages in installer-paths, and the first matching rule wins. So just add theauth0/wordpressin your installer paths and you can name the folder whatever.My example is for a bedrock setup and installs the plugin in
plugins/auth0-v6
