The correct form of the sentence is "I wish that you had been here yesterday."

The reason for this is that 'wish' is often used to express a desire for something that did not happen in the past. When we talk about wishes related to the past, we use the past perfect form of 'have' + the past participle of the main verb.

In this case, 'you be' in the past becomes 'you had been' to indicate that we are referring to a situation where we wished someone was present at a specific time in the past (yesterday), but they were not. The construction reflects a sense of regret or longing for an alternative scenario that didn’t actually occur.

By using 'had been', we clearly indicate that the wish relates to a time that is fixed in the past, aligning with the temporal context of 'yesterday'.
