Fatal Error Programmatically Deleting Taxonomy Terms

    We have code that programmatically deletes all of the terms of a taxonomy using wp_delete_term(). Starting in Yoast 17.3, when this code runs, it looks like Yoast is causing a fatal error:

    PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Exception: Primary key ID missing from row or is null in /app/public/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-seo/lib/orm.php:2059

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    While we are pretty unsure with your current setup though we understand you’re getting Fatal errors thrown from one of the core files in the Yoast SEO directory.

    In case if it helps, can you please try resetting our indexables in the database tables by following the steps below?
    1. Install & activate the?Yoast Test Helper plugin
    2. Go to Tools > Yoast Test
    3. Hit the “Reset indexables & migrations” button.
    4. Go to SEO > Tools, and under SEO data, click the “SEO Data Optimization” button to allow Yoast to rescan your pages.

    For your site’s health and safety, we recommend creating regular backups of your site and database. This is especially important before installing, updating, or removing plugins. Learn more about the benefits of regular backups.

    Make sure you’re running latest WordPress version v5.8.1 and Yoast SEO 7.5 and all non Yoast plugins and themes up to date.

    Hey @suascat_wp, thanks for taking a look. These steps didn’t help the issue.

    That being said, I had also created a GitHub issue for this, so I think it’s safe to close this out.
