Easily Change a WordPress Post Into a Page, and Back
Have you ever created a WordPress post and wish it had been a page instead so it would show up in the navigation menus? Or have you ever created a page, thinking it was a good idea at the time, and now you want it to be a post? Or maybe you’re re-doing your theme and you’d like to do a little housekeeping by changing your navigation structure? I know I have countless times.
Back in the day I’d copy the post and paste its contents into a page, but then naming it became a problem and I’d end up with borken links. I suppose I could have gone into phpMyAdmin and converted the raw table data, but I’d have to do some research to make sure I was getting it right because there’s a lot of half-baked information online from wannabe programmers.
Here’s how to EASILY change a WordPress post to a page or a page to a post without programming or busting your permalinks.
Plugin(s) You’ll Need:
This post to page (and vice versa) converter is a snap to use and it won’t break your permalinks. After installation, you’ll get a spiffy little button on both the post/page editor page in the right sidebar and on the post/page listing page on the right side. Just a click of the button and BAMM! Presto-Changeo.
Just remember, if you convert a post into a page, then the page will appear in the navigation menu unless you exclude it from the menus.
