Good news for those that have been wanting to convert their pages to posts on WordPress blogs, as there is now a free plugin to do just that. Many times bloggers organize their blogs in various ways, and using pages as well as posts is a great way to achieve a good hierarchy and navigation on the site, but, pages on WordPress are not as well optimized as post pages because you cannot set tags or categories and they do not show up feeds or RSS directory displays.
Well now you can convert any pages you have on WordPress with Vice Versa.
This is a great plugin and has several features:
- Convert Pages to Posts
- Convert Posts to Pages
- NOT mass conversion - selection of pages and posts to convert
- Assign a Page or Post a parent or category while converting from one to the other
- Only use it as needed and then deactivate or uninstall the plugin

Running pages through feeds would be cool.
I agree with the post about uninstalling after use. I’ve heard that uninstalling plugins can help performance issues.
I use this plugin… definitely very useful if you accidentally create a page instead of a post, or vice versa. Really, most of your site should use posts, since they show up in rss feeds, and you can get free backlinks from the various rss submit sites out there.

I’ve been wondering how to do this for some time now. I’ve made pages that were supposed to be posts and hadn’t gotten around to converting them because of the hassle. This plugin looks very simple to use. Thanks for posting about this.
Nice! I have been looking for just this plugin for a site i am working on transferring to WP. Thanks,

Thanks a lot. I will definitely try this plugin. Pages with no category are a problem for me. Let´s hope that after this plugin this will be a problem from the past.

Nice find. Genesis also allows you to just modify the layout of pages… May be just as useful if you have Genesis.
