# jQuery Migrate: jQuery.parseJSON requires a valid JSON string

 * I have gotten warnings from the JQuery Migrate plugin regarding Woocommerce since
   I installed Jquery Migrate after the WP 5.5 update.
 * For example, I got this on the 4th of December. [https://rogueeasyweb.tinytake.com/tt/NDk4ODI2MF8xNTcwMTgwMg](https://rogueeasyweb.tinytake.com/tt/NDk4ODI2MF8xNTcwMTgwMg)
 * I haven’t gotten one recently, but I’m worried about the WordPress 5.6 update,
   where Jquery migrate apparently won’t help any more? [https://wishdesk.com/blog/new-wordpress-5-6-break-sites-on-december-2020](https://wishdesk.com/blog/new-wordpress-5-6-break-sites-on-december-2020)
 * I’m currently on Woocommerce v3.8 but still on WP 5.5.3.
 * In this thread an apparent Woocommerce support rep says “this issue will be resolved
   in WooCommerce 4.8.0”, yet a user claims it’s still happening in Woo 3.8 and 
   WP 5.6.
 * Can someone please give me some piece of mind on this? Can I get a straight answer?
   The jquery issue has been very prominent since October, and I cannot imagine 
   Woocommerce is still not updated to comply. But I would like some reassurance
   before updating to WP 5.6 and ditching the crutch Jquery migrate plugin.
 * Thanks.

 * If you are still on v3.8 then you would need to update to the most recent core
   release as that issue, as far as I can see, has been resolved:

 * Howdy.
 * We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to go ahead and mark 
   this thread as resolved. If you have any other questions please start a new thread.
 * Cheers!
