 * Why is compatibility with WP 5.6.1 still showing unknown?

 * Hi there!
 * Those warnings can be ignored, this plugin should work just fine with the most
   recent versions of WordPress and WooCommerce. 🙂
 * What happens is this: each time a plugin like this one is released, it includes
   a line in the code that indicates the latest version of WordPress it was tested
   with. So for example, if WordPress 5.5.0 was the latest version when our devs
   last updated this plugin, then they will change that “Tested up to” line to indicate
   it’s been tested up to WordPress 5.5.0.
 * But then imagine that, the next day, WordPress version 5.6.0 comes out. Now, 
   WordPress might warn you about this plugin, saying that it’s only been tested
   up to 5.5.0. That’s technically true, but not really something to worry about.
   It just means our devs have not updated the special line in the plugin yet, since
   a new version of Admin has yet to be released.
 * Does that make sense? Let me know if not. 🙂

 * Yes it does make sense and is what I had suspected but the warning is daunting
   especially when you rely on a plugin and it looks like it may not be compatible,
   or could break the site.
    The tax report for one. See attached. I find that updates
   for both woo and jetpack can break a site very easily. For one site I manage 
   I have to update both manually via ftp.
