Do I have to upgrade to El Capitan from Yosemite 10.10.5 before I can upgrade to Sierra/High Sierra?

Thank you!

Check to make sure your applications are compatible.


Application Compatibility


El Capitan 10.11 Compatibility information




macOS Sierra 10.12: Compatible Apps



Also check to make sure there is a compatible driver for your printer.


Do a backup before installing, preferable 2 backups on 2 different drives

Ok, I've got the backups covered but on the App Store page to upgrade when I click on the more info about Sierra/High Sierra it takes me to a page about Mojave. Is that just Apple pushing Mojave?

Will it upgrade me to Sierra on the App Store page regardless?

Last question, I keep getting a small upper right corner message window asking me if I want to upgrade to Mojave and I keep choosing not now since I haven't done the Sierra yet, I'm assuming I should upgrade to Sierra first?

Thank you!
