    Has anyone had the same issue with Yoast causing a REST API error after updating to WP 5.8.2? In Site Health, all my websites are now displaying this error, togther with “The REST API request failed due to an error. Error: cURL error 28: Operation timed out after 10001 milliseconds with 0 bytes received (http_request_failed)”

    Hi @bsthp

    We understand you are receiving this error message from Site Health. If you were to temporarily deactivate the Yoast SEO plugin, do you not receive the notification anymore?

    The issue you’re currently experiencing is specific to the PHP cURL extension and shouldn’t necessarily be due to the Yoast SEO plugin.

    The cURL 28 error means that your server was unable to communicate within the set time limit. This can be caused by, for example, a very slow web host or a firewall.

    Michael, thanks for your feedback. Yes, once Yoast was deactivated, the issue disappeared. However, it has now been fixed by extending the max_execution_time to 1000 in my php.ini file i.e. max_execution_time = 1000;
