Frequently Asked Questions

Will this plugin affect my existing content?

No. Swift Switcher only changes the post type assigned to each post. Your post content, metadata, featured images, and categories/tags remain untouched.

Can I migrate custom post types?

Yes! The plugin works with any registered post type, including custom ones created via plugins or themes.

Does Swift Switcher support bulk actions?

Absolutely. You can select multiple posts and migrate them all at once using the Bulk Migration feature.

Is it safe to use on large websites?

Yes. Swift Switcher is optimized to process posts in batches, which prevents server overload and ensures smooth performance even on high-traffic or content-heavy websites.

Do I need coding skills to use this plugin?

Not at all. Swift Switcher is built with ease-of-use in mind. If you can use WordPress, you can use Swift Switcher.

Can I undo a post type migration?

Currently, Swift Switcher does not have an automatic undo feature. However, since the content and metadata remain unchanged, you can manually switch the post types back using the same interface if needed.
