I see in a recent thread the advice to upgrade from DNN 5.2.8 like this:   from 5.2.8 to 6.2.8, and then from 6.2.8 to 7.2.2

Would this upgrade path work starting from 5.6.3? If not, what upgrade path should I use?

You should first upgrade from 5.6.3 to 5.6.8, then to 6.2.8, then to 7.2.2. (see here)



Anyway: There is no guarantee that it works, so do this in a test installation, step by step, check if modules, skins etc. work and if not fix these problems first before continuing. Save early, save often! Write down all the steps, and when your upgrade path works, apply it to your production environment.



Best wishes

I do know the drill; I'm the one who upgraded the site to 5.6.3 from 4.3.5.  

Where do I find the upgrade from 5.6.3 to 5.6.8?  I used to be able to find individual upgrade packs like this but the new revised improved DNN site has totally hidden them and I can't see them on the Codeplex site.  A link would be most helpful.
