 * Updating from 13.3 to 14.4.1 in a local development environment for a multisite
   with 7 subthemes.
 * I get the output below in the wp debug log after refreshing the site after the
   manual update. I have not clicked on the button “Start processing and speed up
   your site now” to re-index the subtheme yet.
 * Looking for guidance on how to proceed. Thanks!

 * Hello,
 * Can you confirm you are also using the latest version of WordPress 5.4.2, as 
   well as the rest of your plugins and themes?
 * If you try to run the Indexables ‘speed up your site’ feature, does this resolve
   the issue?

 * Hello and thanks for your quick reply. Yes all dependencies and WP Core are up
   to date.
 * The output shared above is served immediately after updating the plugin to 14.4.1.
   If I run the re-indexing, `WordPress database error Table` output does not reappear
   after refreshing the site /or purging the cache. Is the issue resolved if the
   output does not reappear??
 * When I try to update with previous versions, such as 14.3, I do not receive this
   output.
 * I also did not receive the same output while updating other standalone WP installations
   to 14.4.1. Could this possibly be a multisite issue with the latest update?
 * * My concern is the negative effect that this update could potentially cause 
   to our 4k+ blog posts that maintain our google ranking – basing this on previous
   Yoast reviews/support requests with the unfortunatly bumpy 14.0 release.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi [@nikkins82](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nikkins82/),
 * Thank you for your reply and details.
 * We expect that when you run the re-indexing without any error message or notice
   on the Tools page, it runs as it should and it can complete. Do you see a green
   checkmark after the re-indexing on the SEO → Tools → SEO Data?

 * Hi [@jeroenrotty](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jeroenrotty/) Yes, checkmarks
   are green after re-indexing for all subthemes in the multisite. The wp debug 
   log does not display an error after as well.
 * If you are suggesting that the plugin update should not negative affect our website,
   could help me interrupt what the original output means to better understand and
   for future reference?
 * Thanks again!

 * Hi [@nikkins82](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nikkins82/),
 * Thank you for your reply. We understand the concern. We just did a local test
   by installing the plugin manually on a multisite and we get the same error notification
   you mentioned. However, this is due to the design of how updates manually install,
   this does not have any (negative) impact.
 * When you see that the subsites have the green checkmark under the SEO data, this
   is just fine and the metadata is copied over to the Yoast indexable database 
   table. This error is not expected to show up again at any time.

 * Great, I will proceed with the update.
 * I appreciate your quick response and the extra steps taken to troubleshoot on
   your end.
