FAQ
-
Can I convert custom post types or custom taxonomies?
-
Our plugin currently supports only standard post types and the standard category taxonomy.
-
Can I convert only some posts and not an entire category?
-
Not at this time. An easy workaround would be to create a temporary category to select the specific posts you want to convert. After the conversion, you can delete the temporary category.
Reviews
It works!
Although: – Not for my custom post types created with ACF – I had to adjust “Posts to process per page reload” and click “Convert” a few items to get all my 350 posts converted – The result message doesn’t seem reliable (showing “127 posts converted” repeatedly when converting a category and its parent category) – A calculation of the conversions to be made before clicking “Convert” would be very nice
Work nice, could you add converting posts to pages and vice versa
thankyou
