Title: Upgrade From 5.16.2 to 5.20.x Wordpress
ThreadText: # Upgrade From 5.16.2 to 5.20.x Wordpress
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2019-12-20)
  
  Can I do a straight through upgrade or do I need to do incremental such as 5.16 to 5.17 then 5.18, 5.19, and finally 5.20? I ask as in pre 4.7 I encountered this as I recall when making a larger version jump.
  
  Thanks!
