  Hi, i started in a new job no too long ago, and they have a really really old version of WordPress, the old graphiste told me not to update it, but i was wondering if we make an update to wordPress 5.0 will we lose every thing…?

  PS: It depends how old that version of WordPress is. Many older versions now have security issues. Even 5.0 has already been updated to 5.0.1. See:
