    Hello, I have a website currently running wordpress 5.5.7 and Woocommerce 4.9.3.
I would like to update Woocommerce.
At this link: https://woocommerce.com/document/update-php-wordpress/ I read about version 5.0, compatible with WP 5.4 (5.6 strongly recommended), while from 5.3 WP 5.6 is required.
I don't see any trace of 5.5.x, but in the WC repository I see that the last release before 5.3 is 5.2.4.
Why is it not mentioned in the article? Is it version buggy and therefore obsolete?
So I'm wondering what is the latest version I can install.

    thanks, I read the procedure, so I was wondering what is the latest version that I can install on WP 5.5.7: 5.0 or 5.2.4?
    thanks

    The latest update for WooCommerce is version 6.0 and it’s compatible with WordPress 5.7 and above.

    We recommend going through this table for compatible versions of WooCommerce with WordPress

    Thanks Oyadeyi,
    as I said I read that article, but it only talks about version 5.0 and then goes to 5.3.
    I would like to know, in my case, keeping WP 5.5.7 (I cannot upgrade because I have scripts that do not run on 5.6) which is the latest version of WC that I can install (now I have 4.9.3)?

    Hi @anthony82

    We always strongly recommend keeping your WordPress, WooCommerce, current theme and all other plugins updated to the latest version. Having an outdated version of WooCommerce can lead to a myriad of issues, which can be difficult to rectify.

    You can find the latest versions here – https://developer.woocommerce.com/releases/

    Also, please always make sure that your hosting environment setup meets the WooCommerce Server Recommendations: https://woocommerce.com/document/server-requirements/

    I cannot upgrade because I have scripts that do not run on 5.6

    – You can modify/update the scripts
    – You can consider using a child theme to avoid such issues

    Hopefully, you were able to find a way forward with the issue. I’m going to mark the thread as closed. Feel free to create a new topic if you need assistance with anything else.

    Cheers
