Please give us a description of what happened.

I was on 13.5. Then I saw 14.0 was available. I updated through the WordPress dashboard. After the update completed, my frontend was broken:


Uncaught Error: Class 'WPSEO_Frontend' not found in /home/xxxx/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-seo/inc/wpseo-functions.php on line 19

Please describe what you expected to happen and why.

I expected the version to bump to 14 and nothing else.

How can we reproduce this behavior?

This looks like an incomplete / corrupt installation / update. Please remove the plugin and manually reinstall again. If that still fails, please check for conflicts and let us know what you can find.

Hey,

same happens on my wordpress instance after upgrade to v14 from 13.5:

Looks like the database hasn't be updated with new columns. Can i force a "upgrade" to the new structure ?

@Canic that is not the same error, please create a new issue for this and follow the bug template. I'd like to know exactly which steps you took to get to this error as this might need additional investigation on our end.

I had simply updated the plugin from wordpress like I always do, so I'm not sure about Canic.
