I’m running a five-year-old site for a major client. It has University version 1.0.4 (circa 2012). The site platform is Joomla 2.59.
We are going to be updating now all the way to Joomla 3.7.
The Joomla update itself can be done in one click. My questions relate to other issues. I’m going to post them one at a time to keep it simple.

1. Will the old website still function?
   Thanks,

Hi
Use the doc below to update Joomla:
https://docs.joomla.org/Joomla_2.5_to_3.x_Step_by_Step_Migration
I suggest you to first check all extensions are template on your site are ready for latest Joomla or not, if not either you to update them if they are ready for it or unpublish them.
After this, you can update site.
Also, try the updates on a test site.
Hope it helps.
