Fatal Error after updating to Yoast 14.1

Hello,

I came across the same issue while updating the plugin yesterday. I had to deactivate the plugin.

Following this thread. If anyone can help.

Hi @timlumsden @kaptelneha23

We apologize for any issues that you may have encountered when updating the Yoast SEO plugin. We’d like to try and help you get this sorted out.

Can you confirm you’re using the latest version of WordPress 5.4.1 and that all of your other plugins and themes are up to date? Could you also let us know if you updated it using the WordPress admin dashboard or if you used another tool or method? Did you update from v13.5 TO v14.1, or did you update from v14.0.x to v14.1?

Could you please try to follow the steps below and see if you are able to update the plugin successfully:

• Delete the /wordpress-seo/ folder in your /wp-content/plugins/ folder
• Download the latest Yoast SEO zip file: https://downloads.www.ads-software.com/plugin/wordpress-seo.14.1.zip
• Extract the zip file and upload the wordpress-seo folder to your /wp-content/plugins/ folder using a FTP client to your web server. More information about this here: https://yoast.com/help/how-can-i-update-my-premium-plugin/#ftp.

Hi, the update also caused a fatal error.
WordPress 5.4.1
Everything up to date.
Upgrade from 14 to 14.1 from the desktop
PHP 7.4 (change doesn’t help).
New wordpress-seo folder uploaded.
Only disabling the Yoast SEO plugin solves the problem.

Hi Micheal,

Thanks for your suggestions. The plugin was updated using MainWP from v14.0 to v14.1.

I’ve since actioned what you suggested and the error has been resolved.

Thank you for your help – much appreciated!

Same problem at https://www.lasterrenasrealestate.com. After upgrading huge problems. Latest wordpress version, everything up to date.

Yesterday total crash. So recovered everything from my vps from 1 week ago. With old yoast version everythin ok. Then i upgraded again to 14.1 and less problems. Nut homepage is gone.

Hi @matthew99 ,

Are you using the Events Calendar plugin? If so, the have released a fix for this in their plugin, in developer version 5.9.7.5. You can find more information here.

@tonydomrep Sorry to hear you are having issues on your site with the latest update. Have you tried the instructions here? If so, can you create a new thread with more information about what exact error you are getting?

@tonydomrep, If you need support then per the forum guidelines please start your own topic.

A lot more people will see your post, and that way you stand a good chance of getting the assistance you want. Despite any similarity in symptoms, your issue is likely to be completely different because of possible differences in physical servers, accounts, hosts, plugins, theme, configurations, etc. Thus one problem, on one setup is not indicative of the functionality and reliability of an application as a whole: https://www.ads-software.com/support/forum-user-guide/faq/#i-have-the-same-problem-can-i-just-reply-to-someone-elses-post-with-me-too

and: https://www.ads-software.com/support/guidelines/#post-in-the-best-place

I’ll be archiving your post and mine to not spam the original poster and detract from their question.

Thanks.

Thank you @marcanor
Problem solved ??

@matthew99 Thanks for confirming that your issue has been corrected. We are going ahead and marking this issue as resolved.
