    I have read about quite a few issues on here about the latest Yoast plugin update. Many of them have gone without replies. Needless to say, I am nervous about updating it and have elected to remain on 19.4 for the time being.

    Can anybody offer any assurances that it is ok to upgrade to 19.5.1 as I have lost a bit of confidence in Yoast for the moment?

  • @apg1912 Earlier this week, we released version 19.5 which had a compatibility problem with version 19.0 of our own Yoast SEO Premium plugin. That problem caused fatal errors on the front end of the affected websites.

    While we managed to address and resolve the problem fairly quickly with a patch release, too many sites were negatively affected.

    Version 19.5.1 does not have this problem anymore and should be safe to update to.

    That said, we always have and always will advise you to create a full backup of your entire site before updating any plugin, theme, or WordPress itself. That way you can always roll back to a previous state of your site.
