Update from 1.84 to current version (8.x?)

I’m coming to this client’s website after a few years of them not doing much with it. Originally I purchased the theme from Theme Forest. I’ve purchased the service update. I’m concerned about the seemingly vast distance between a 1.8x and the current version of 8.x. Can I just override the old version or…?
How best to proceed.
Regards,
Mark

Hi Mark,

Thanks for reaching out.

There could be some conflict when updating your client website from 1.8.x to the latest version of X. I suggest that you will upgrade the website in the staging area and let see if the process didn’t break your website. The worsts case scenario, I am seeing is that, you need to create your client website using the latest version and please update the theme every time there’s an update.

Hope that helps.

Thank you.
