The site is currently running v12.1 of Salient, but the person who set it up hasn't been updating the theme. Can I go straight to the current version, or should I install any intermediate versions first?
The current version of the theme is 13.0.5 and the current version of the page builder is 6.6. Salient versions older than v11 won't be compatible with WordPress 5.5.
Here's the documentation on the available methods for updating Salient: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/updating-salient/#methods Once you've updated that, the update for the included page builder will become available. Note that "Visual Composer" also renamed their plugin on Envato to "WPbakery page builder" a couple of years back.
I am sorry for the brief response. You are able to update from version 12 to the current version 13. You do not have to go through the intermediate versions to update to the latest version.

Hi Ray,

That did not answer my question. Please read it and reply to what I asked in sufficient detail to show your responding to the actual question.
Hey Again,
You can update to Version 13.0.5 directly.
The current version of the theme is 13.0.5 and the current version of the page builder is 6.6. Salient versions older than v11 won't be compatible with WordPress 5.5.

Here's an update guide on what to expect when jumping many major releases at once: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/important-salient-update-for-new-envato-requirements/ take a read through before the update, as many things have changed.
