    Communicating with the WordPress servers is used to check for new versions, and to both install and update WordPress core, themes or plugins.

    Error Your site is unable to reach WordPress.org at 198.143.164.251, and returned the error: cURL error 60: SSL: no alternative certificate subject name matches target host name ‘developer.wordpress.org’

    Get help resolving this issue. (opens in a new tab)

    This is the occasional error my website is getting ever since 5.5 was released… what is going on?

    WP servers can be somewhat overloaded during new releases, leading to strange behavior. Usually this abates after a couple days. If you are still experiencing errors at this point there could be something else wrong. I can assure you the *.wordpress.org SSL certificate is signed and valid through 12/15/20 at which point it will auto-renew.
