Error after update to v14.0.1

In addition to this error above it got:

Warning: in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, null given in XXX/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-seo/src/helpers/robots-helper.php on line 27

Notice: Undefined property: Yoast\WP\SEO\Presentations\Indexable_Term_Archive_Presentation::$robots in XXX/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-seo/src/helpers/robots-helper.php on line 31

I’m getting the same exact error message after updating the Yoast SEO plugin:

Warning: in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, null given in ///wp-content/plugins/wordpress-seo/src/helpers/robots-helper.php on line 27.

I too offer a “thank you” in advance for any help or a fix for this.

Yep, broke my site as well….

Hi Guys, here is a FIX – hopefully yoast will fix this in the next update.
1. Access your site either using the cPanel File Manager or FTP.
2. Look for and edit the following file: wp-content/plugins/wordpress-seo/src/helpers/robots-helper.php
3. Replace lines 27-29 which currently read:
if ( in_array( ‘noindex’, $presentation->robots, true ) ) {
return $robots;
}
with:
if ( is_array( $presentation->robots ) ) {
if ( in_array( ‘noindex’, $presentation->robots, true ) ) {
return $robots;
}
}
4. Save the file

That’s It!
