 * Hi,
 * I am using WordPress 5.5.1 and Yoast SEO 14.8.
 * There is a deprecation warning/error about **WPSEO_Replace_Vars**. I did check
   for updates, but there seems to be no update past 14.8.
 * > The “WPSEO_Replace_Vars” service is private, getting it from the container 
   > is deprecated since Symfony 3.2 and will fail in 4.0. You should either make
   > the service public, or stop using the container directly and use dependency
   > injection instead.
 * Thanks

 * Hi [@amaranth2000](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amaranth2000/),
 * Thank you for reaching out.
 * We understand that you get a deprecation notification on your site. It’s odd 
   that you don’t see an update being available, the latest version of Yoast SEO
   is 14.9. Can you please check if you can trigger the update by going to Dashboard
   → Updates and clicking the ‘Check again’ button? If that doesn’t work, you can
   also download the ZIP file on our plugin page [here](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-seo/)
   and uploading that by going to Plugins → Add new → Select the zip file and confirm
   you want to update Yoast SEO from 14.8 to 14.9.
 * Can you please let us know if the warning persists when you’ve updated?

 * Thanks. It seems the premium version is a separate download. Is there an update
   for wordpress-seo-premium?

 * Hi [@amaranth2000](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amaranth2000/),
 * If you are using the Premium version, you’d need an active subscription in order
   to update to the latest version. Please check your [My Yoast](https://my.yoast.com)
   account to see if your subscription is active and to access the latest files/
   downloads. If you need any further assistance for Premium, [please reach out to us directly](https://yoast.com/help/support/#premium)
   since we may not give support on premium products here on the WordPress.org forums,
   as seen in their [guidelines](https://wordpress.org/support/guidelines/).
