Enhancements:

• * Enhances the upgrade flow for add-ons by considering the minimum required WP version before showing any available updates.
• * Enables the Schema Article type for any post type supporting authors.
• * Removes the placeholder texts for title and description inputs in the Google preview and Social preview since they have no semantic value.

Bugfixes:

• * Fixes a bug where the `page` post type wasn't allowed to display an `Article` piece in the Schema.
• * Fixes a bug where the content inside of reusable blocks would not be analyzed correctly.

Other:

• * The plugin will no longer block installation on PHP 8.0+ when installed via Composer.

Enhancements:

• Completes the readability analysis for Farsi by adding the transition words, sentence beginnings and passive voice assessments, and by adjusting the sentence length assessment to make it more appropriate for the Farsi language.
• Improves keyword detection for Farsi by adding more categories to the list of function words. E.g., general adjectives and adverbs category, conjunctions, and articles.
• Cleans up indexables for posts with an auto-draft post-status, in order to speed-up your admin pages.

Bugfixes:

• Fixes a bug where indexables would be created for post auto-drafts when the SEO optimization is run.

Other:

• Loads our help beacon on the workouts page.

Bugfixes:

• Fixes a bug where internal linking suggestions, in either the editor or the orphaned content workout, and the related links block would not load on WordPress installations that have a different database table prefix than the default wp_.

Bugfixes:

• Fixes a bug where newly added Yoast Related Links blocks would load indefinitely.

Enhancements:

• Only calculates internal link suggestions when the internal links sidebar (or metabox in the classic editor) is opened. This should improve performance in all editors, especially for large sites.
• Makes the internal linking suggestions load faster by improving query performance.
• Improves word form recognition for irregular stem-changing verbs in Italian (e.g., fare, dire, piacere, scegliere, produrre).

Bugfixes:

• Fixes a bug where the weights of prominent words in your post would always be updated in the database, even when their weights were unchanged. This should improve performance when updating a post.
• Fixes a bug which caused additional loading time for admin pages, when multiple languages and plugins were installed.
• Fixes a bug where we incorrectly labeled a related keyphrase as the focus keyphrase in the keyphrase length assessment on cornerstone pages.
