Stuck on Database Update Required after downgrading to 4.9.9 from backup

by

You are facing the issue due to the different database versions. Please, follow this steps to fix the issue:

  1. Head to /wp-include/ folder.
  2. Open the version.php file.
  3. Find the value for $wp_db_version.
  4. Open your database. Find wp_options.

  5. Use the following line to identify the value of db_version:

    SELECT option_value FROM yourdatabase.wp_options WHERE option_name="db_version";

The values of $wp_db_version and db_version must be the same. Make sure that you make the change in the version.php file, but not the database.
