It will help you to clean up your site and to make your content more findable by linking to it.
  • Reduces the load time of admin pages, by reducing the number of database queries and optimizing the queries themselves.

Bugfixes

  • Fixes a compatibility issue with WordPress 5.6 in the workouts feature.

Other

  • Deprecates the Yoast\WP\SEO\Repositories\Prominent_Words_Repository class in favor of the Yoast\WP\SEO\Premium\Repositories\Prominent_Words_Repository class.
  • Bumps the minimum required Yoast SEO Free version to 16.9.
