Post doesn’t appear on frontend after moving from a custom post type to another
-
Hi all, I have two pages on my wordpress site – one titled ‘Research’, another titled ‘Industry’. I suppose both could be custom post types as both appear outside of ‘Pages’ and ‘Posts’.
I am trying to re-classify all articles under ‘Research’ page to be displayed under ‘Industry’ page. Both pages have a similar-looking structure – classified by date, each article has multiple tags/categories.
I installed this plugin called Post Type Switcher, and under my ‘Research’ article, I changed the post type to ‘Industry’, and clicked Publish. On WP backend, under ‘Industry’ the article now is found in the list. However when I opened my ‘Industry’ page frontend of website, that particular article does not show up.
Has anyone encountered a similar issue? Please share what I can do to ensure the article I moved shows up on the frontend. Thanks in advance!

We can’t help with third party plugins, best is to contact support of that plugin Post Type Switcher at https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/post-type-switcher/, however it seems that plugin is no longer supported as the developer no longer replies to support issues.

The easiest way is by organizing your posts with categories – https://make.wordpress.org/support/user-manual/categories-and-tags/categories/

Hmm this method is unlikely to work for my case because categories works differently.. You can imagine right now I have 2 blog pages, and I wish to move all the blog articles from one page to the other, such that all articles display on only one consolidated page. Are there other ways I could explore?
