 * Ggetting notices that wpsso core needs an update but when I go to the plugin 
   it says its up to date. This is strange.

 * Still asking me to upgrade to a version that wordpress is not recognizing an 
   update for. What is going on?

 * It sounds like you may be using the Premium version — if so, then using the Premium
   support site at [https://surniaulula.com/support/](https://surniaulula.com/support/)
   is recommended since response times are faster and wordpress.org does not allow
   support of Pro / Premium versions in its forums.
 * The Standard and Premium versions have the same release numbers. Older versions
   of the WPSSO Update Manager could allow for newer Standard updates to slip through
   if a newer Premium update was not yet available. Make sure you are using the 
   latest WPSSO Update Manager (currently v2.6.3). You can also click the SSO > 
   Actions and Tools > Check for Updates button to manually clear the cache and 
   refresh the update information.

 * Hi there and thank you for the reply. I’m actually using the free version and
   evaluating it to upgrade to the premium version. I deleted the plug-in and reinstalled
   in order to upgrade to the new version but doing that cause me to lose all of
   the settings which I had to reconfigure last night. there is definitely something
   going on because all of the SSO add-ons are reporting out of date except for 
   a few and none of them are upgrading or being flagged to be updated by WordPress.
   If you need to see this yourself I am more than happy to give you access under
   a test account. I know this is not intentional and I would like to help you resolve
   it because your product has a lot of great reviews. And I would like to be successful
   with its use as well.

 * Yes, it sounds like you have an issue with your site.
 * Defining WP_DEBUG as true, checking the WordPress debug.log for errors, using
   the Query Monitor plugin, and checking your browser’s console for errors, are
   all things that may help you figure out what is going on with your site.

 * Except its not just my site but actually four which are all on different servers
   in different environments and hardware.
 * Other plugins show they need to be upgraded just fine. I’m afraid this issue 
   is related directly to your product.

 * Unless you’re using the WPSSO Update Manager add-on, which you wouldn’t be since
   you’re using the Standard version, then all update information and update ZIP
   files would come from wordpress.org.
 * I assume you have defined WP_DEBUG as true, the WordPress debug.log file shows
   no errors (when checking for, or installing updates), the Query Monitor shows
   no errors (when checking for, or installing updates), and your browser’s console
   shows no errors (when checking for, or installing updates).
 * WordPress stores its update information in the ‘update_plugins’ site transient.
   Assuming there are no errors interfering with the WordPress update system (see
   above to make sure everything is error free), then the ‘update_plugins’ site 
   transient might be out of date. Try clearing the WordPress transient objects (
   there are several plugins to do this).
 * Since the WordPress Plugins page uses javascript / jquery and is susceptible 
   to javascript / jquery bugs from your theme and other plugins, make sure to use
   the WordPress Dashboard > Updates page for a more reliable update process.

 * I’m using wssso update addon plugin which i downloaded from wordpress.org. I’ll
   check out the transient plugins your talking about but I’m noticing this issue
   on four machines which update other plugins with no issue.

 * If you have installed and activated the WPSSO Update Manager add-on, you should
   deactivate and uninstall it. The WPSSO Update Manager is designed to provide 
   Premium updates for licensed sites. Since your site is not licensed, then no 
   Premium update information would be available.

 * Deleting update manager didn’t help and all expired transients were removed. 
   On the other sites update manager wasn’t there yet all four sites are still reporting
   that plugins are out of date in wpsso dahboard but wordpress says they are totally
   updated when i visit “updates” under wordpress.
 * And you are correct. We have no errors reporting. What now? This seems to be 
   an issue with your product. All four sites aren’t using the same plugins except
   wpsso,w3tc, and a few others.

 * W3TC has well known issues with its object cache, so you may try disabling that
   plugin, or that feature, to see if it fixes the issue. You may need to click 
   on the WordPress Dashboard > Updates > Check Again button to force a refresh 
   of the ‘update_plugins’ site transient.
 * Another possibility would be if a plugin was installed site wide in a multisite,
   but also installed a single site / blog, and the single site / blog plugin was
   current, but the multisite plugin was an older version. That would be a bit of
   a weird setup though, and I’m not sure that’s even possible…
