WordPress: Convert Custom Post Type to Post including Custom Taxonomies

I need to convert a lot of posts from a Cutom Post Type to normal posts. All of them have tags and categories based on two different Custom Taxonomies.

Is there any solution to convert the posts and keeping the taxonomies by inverting them to regular post tags and post categories?

I've found many plugins which can convert the posts. But all of them ingore the taxonomies.

Solution

  • I am adding my answer here as well. You can use this plugin to convert the taxonomies https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-type-switcher/. Post and term relationships are added based on ids so the connections won't be lost.
