Migrating an existing theme to Concrete 5.6.3 from 5.4.0.5

Permalink
I am moving a Theme and Database from an existing 5.4.0.5 install to a new upgraded 5.6.3 install. When I try to do the upgrade process manually, only the header of the site loads and none of the content, images or Navigation load.

Anyone have any experience migrating just the Concrete database and theme folders to a clean 5.6.3 install without doing an upgrade? Is this even doable?

It's not doable. You have to take baby steps. See here, under "Changelog & Version History":

In my experience, you'd be wise to go 5.4.0.5 ->5.4.2.2 -> 5.5.0 -> 5.5.2.1 -> 5.6.0 -> 5.6.2.1 -> 5.6.3

I have found the step to 5.6.0 is important even though it's not mentioned anywhere.
