Could not update an extension to latest version in yii2

Yii 2.0 Extensions
1

I am using unclead/yii2-multiple-input widget for storing multiple inputs for an attribute of single model. When I installed this widget through composer as "unclead/yii2-multiple-input": "~2.0" It works. But this widget has some limitations because of which I have to update it to latest version either 2.8.1 or 2.9.0

I have added the line of code as "unclead/yii2-multiple-input": "2.9.0" in composer.json and done composer update. But it is showing all the previous version features and not the latest version features.

It gives the foll in command prompt

Loading composer repositories with package information

Updating dependencies (including require-dev)

Installing unclead/yii2-multiple-input (2.9.0)

Loading from cache

Package yiisoft/yii2-codeception is abandoned, you should avoid using it. Use

codeception/codeception instead.

Writing lock file

Generating autoload files

And then I refereshed the page in browser to see if it is working, but it is not working.

I’m not a composer specialist but to me it looks like the update was successful.

Make this change of testing package in composer.json.

"Package yiisoft/yii2-codeception is abandoned, you should avoid using it. Use

codeception/codeception instead."

The update is getting successful but the changes which are required are not getting reflected.

Probably the changes you need are still not released. Make sure they are.
