    Since WordPress 5.2 there is a built-in feature that detects when a plugin or theme causes a fatal error on your site, and notifies you with this automated email.

    In this case, WordPress caught an error with one of your plugins, Yoast SEO.

    When seeking help with this issue, you may be asked for some of the following information:
    WordPress version 5.3.4
    Current theme: Betheme Child (version 1.6.1.1)
    Current plugin: Yoast SEO (version 14.3)
    PHP version 5.6.40

    Error Details
    =============
    An error of type E_COMPILE_ERROR was caused in line 8 of the file /wp-content/plugins/wordpress-seo/src/integrations/front-end/comment-link-fixer.php. Error message: Namespace declaration statement has to be the very first statement in the script

    Hi @cynthusia @tziady ,

    This type of error is usually caused by cached files during the update but does not affect the plugin functionality in any way. Have you tried clearing your site cache?
    If the issue persists, does re-installing the plugin manually via FTP resolves the issue?

    Note that re-installing the plugin does not erase your plugin settings as those are saved in your database.

    We are going ahead and marking this issue as resolved due to inactivity. If you require any further assistance please create a new issue.

    Apologies for no response. I had not seen the previous error. I did uninstall and reinstall the database and believe that it should be resolve. I will update if anything occurs again.
