Straight thru from 2.03-2.29

[geek]

I know I'll have to insert upgrade13 from the "upgrade zip file", but both ver.2.25 and 2.29 contain upgrades 14 thru 18.
QUESTIONS: Should i upgrade to 2.25 first, and then 2.29 or should i just upgrade to 2.29 directly? Also, am i correct in assuming that i simply upload and run "upgrade13" along with the rest? thanks

To upgrade from 2.0.3:

1. Shutdown your forums

2. Backup your database (preferably using shell access via telnet or ssh.)

3. Upload all the files from the vB 2.2.9 zip file, except:

- install.php
- the files in the 'extras' folder
- the files in the 'images' folder and subfolders

Make sure you upload all non-image files in ASCII and that you overwrite the ones on your server.

4. Run the follow upgrade scripts in sequence and to completion:

upgrade13.php
upgrade14.php
upgrade15.php
upgrade16.php
upgrade17.php
upgrade18.php
upgrade19.php
upgrade20.php
upgrade21.php

5. Reopen your forums.

...should i just insert "upgrade13" from the "upgrade.zip" file as if it was included with 2.29 ?
-Just want to keep it clear. You are a great help.
