Change Post Type

Convert content between post, page, and other types from the editor, Quick Edit, or bulk actions.

Overview

Converts content between post types from the editor meta box, Quick Edit, or bulk actions—without recreating the post. You choose which types are available as sources/targets (defaults: post and page). System types like attachments and revisions are excluded. Changing type does not automatically migrate type-specific meta or taxonomies that only exist on the old type—review content after conversion.
