I am preparing for upgrading my existing DNN installation from v4.3.5 to v4.4.1. Reading some threads on thisforum it appears that some 'regulars' / 'old hands' when upgrading to a new version choose to do a clean install and not an upgrade. Is this the recommended route to take? I assume this 'clean install' route will involve a few extra steps including:
  • Reimporting all 3rd party modules & Skins
  • Reapplying skins to pages
Are there any other steps necessary for a 'clean' install route compared to an upgrade that I am missing above? Anybody have any experience / advice between the clean install and upgrade option? This info would be very helpful me establish what route would be best for me.

Thanks

Eoghano
