The current version of LibreOffice is 24.8.0.
https://portableapps.com/apps/office/libreoffice_portable is stuck at version 24.2.3.
And https://www.libreoffice.org/download/portable-versions/ tells:
No Portable Version (MultilingualStandard) is currently available
and
LibreOffice is packaged for portable use by PortableApps.com with permission and assistance from The Document Foundation. For more information and support please visit this page [https://portableapps.com/apps/office/libreoffice_portable]
Why is there no current portable version of LibreOffice?
It is in the process of being built.
That linked post is the place to check the status of upcoming releases, and if they are not in the list you can comment to alert us that an update is available.
LibreOffice changed the way versions are number as at February 2024. And in line with that a new 'Release Plan' was constructed.
PortableApps had been packaging 24.2.5 but then LibreOffice released 24.8.0 on 22 August 2024 (in effect the new LibreOffice 'Fresh') so my guess is the 24.2.5 package was abandoned to concentrate on 24.8.0. As things stand 24.2.6 (in effect the latest LibreOffice 'Still') should be released on or around September 05 2024 — so my guess would be that PortableApps have decided to just go with 24.2.6 (Still) when it became available, no point in chasing 24.2.5 when it is to be superseded very soon.
On the other hand maybe PortableApps will hold off and just wait until 24.8 reaches a version that would be considered a 'Still' release and deal with that when it becomes available.

And besides what Abraxian said

It is now 2024-09-28.
Version 24.2.3 is available for download on portableapps.com.
Version 24.8.2 (2024-09-27) is available for download on libreoffice.org.
What is the planned version lag on portableapps.com?
I'll be building the updated Fresh 24.8.2 and Still 24.2.6 packages of LibreOffice Portable this weekend and submitting them to The Document Foundation. They should hopefully be released soon after but they can take up to a couple weeks to post them to their mirrors.
I've been dealing with a few personal issues. A few mental health dips including the usual one around Sept 11, some family health issues, a couple physical things including bruised (maybe broken?) ribs, and some financial stuff (ad revenue has now dipped below monthly hosting costs). I'm doing ok but working on some stuff outside of PA.c that has taken my attention. On the positive side, I also did get out for two quick weekend trips to see my Mom and my friend visiting from New Zealand. My apologies for the delays on some apps like LibreOffice and the lack of being more clear with what was up.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
understand.
wish you all the best!
what about asking the hoster for a cooperation, like free hosting for a sponsored by link?
my fav tec blogger did it, by this traffic it should be no problem!

John,
I'm not trying to be funny but am sympathetic to the personal situation which you describe. I would very much recommend Larry Crane's Release Technique – Abundance Course (which is the Release Technique Basic Course) to you. It has helped me immensely in dealing with issues of my own, so I speak from personal experience. I would mention that I have no financial incentive to recommending the course and that this post is not spam – it is given in good faith. If you want to delete this post then please feel free to do so, no ill-will on my part well be forthcoming. The Course is expensive as an initial outlay but, practised with persistence, will more than repay itself in many ways.
Hope this helps.
