• The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Question Social Login Deprecation – What About Passkey Support?

Hi Plesk Team,

I noticed that the Social Login extension has been marked as deprecated.

I'm curious why the extension is being discontinued, especially since it also provides Passkey support for Plesk.

Personally, Passkeys are the only reason I use this extension, and I consider them a very important security feature. Passwordless authentication using Passkeys is becoming increasingly important, so losing this functionality would be a significant step backward.

Are there any plans to provide native Passkey support in Plesk or introduce an alternative before the extension is removed?

I'd really appreciate some clarification on the reasons behind this decision and the future of Passkey authentication in Plesk.

Thanks!
