maven-compiler-plugin not found

Čamo picture Čamo · Feb 7, 2020 · Viewed 17k times · Source

I am learning Selenium and I would like to try add the maven-compiler-plugin to pom.xml and reimport maven settings. So I found this example to do it http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/examples/set-compiler-source-and-target.html and tried to add the code to the pom.xml. But the vrsion from the example 3.8.1 is red like on the screenshot. What it means? It is a copy from example.

enter image description here

Here is the whole pom.xml

In IntelliJ you can right click on 3.8.1 scroll down to Maven and select "Reimport". This solved the issue for me.
