    Hi, My Yoast dashboard was showing a notification of a problem stating:

    We have detected the following issues that affect the SEO of your site.

    Upgrade WordPress to the most recent version
    We’ve noticed that you’re not on the latest WordPress version, which might cause an issue soon. Yoast (for reasons of security and stability) only supports the current and previous version of WordPress. When the next version of WordPress comes out, that means that we will support WordPress 5.3 and 5.4. This means you will not get any updates to Yoast SEO until you update your WordPress, so please make sure to upgrade to the latest WordPress version soon!

    Read this post for more information about why we’re not supporting older versions.

    I updated my WordPress version (it is currently 5.3), but the Yoast notification of this problem did not clear. What might this mean?

    Thanks!

  • I have the same issue. After update it still complains about old version.

    Best guess: The plugin checks only once in a while and waiting some time will fix it.

    You could hide the warning for the time being.

    Hi @hhennenburg

    We apologize for any inconvenience. Can you please confirm if deactivating and reactivating the plugin under the “Plugins” menu resolve the issue? You might also need to clear your site cache after doing so.

    FYI, I had the same issue and clearing caches did not resolve the issue. Deactivating and reactivating did the trick. HTH! ??

    I’m having the same issue on a number of (but not all) sites using Yoast. No caching plugins here.
