Hi,

I have been reading a lot of issues with regards to upgrading to version 4.5.5 which is supposed to be a stable version,  has anyone upgraded successfully without any issues ?

I will do my due deligence of testing in the Dev env. but would appreciate if someone who has done the upgrade with any problems could comment.

Thanks

Vishal

I have upgraded all my DNN solutions to 4.5.5 without any issues.  Remember to backup, just incase.
