    I keep trying to update my Yoast SEO plugin to 4.7, but the upgrade screen gets stuck in an endless loop and eventually causes a server error on my webhost. Is anyone else having these issues?

    Any idea if I can still download v.4.6 somewhere and do a fresh install of that? I’m not sure if there were any half-changes that might have happened in the failed upgrade process.

    Thanks! From what I gathered from the support agent, they suggested that since this plugin integrates with pretty much every corner of my website, including other plugins) that the query to run the upgrade was too much. He said he increased my query limit, and I could try again.

    I’m nervous because I’ve brought down my site twice trying to upgrade. In the past query limit errors self-resolved over time, but my first outage was 16 hours (because I assumed), until I called to have my host reset it.

    If I simply download the v.4.7 plugin zip and try to install it as a new plugin vs running the built-in upgrade, would this be less likely to cause a query limit issue? I’m skeptical that it was a query limit to blame, but that’s what the host says. It tempts me to try, but we’re not doing anything in Italian, so maybe I should leave well enough alone…

    I welcome your thoughts and insight. There was a bit of a language barrier with the agent, so as I asked him to explain, I’m not sure if he was just saying “yeah” or if what I was summarizing was truly the root cause.

    Hi,

    We’re working on cleaning up these Yoast SEO support forums. Since your thread hasn’t had any activity in the last two weeks, we’ve marked it as resolved.

    Of course, you’re always welcome to open a new topic. We kindly ask you to read this post before doing so.

    Thanks for understanding!
