Maybe you&#8217;re eager to rearrange your content, perhaps you&#8217;ve conceded that certain posts would be better off housed in another category, or maybe you just have to transfer content from one WordPress site to another. No matter the reason, moving posts on WordPress is a challenge you can navigate with ease. In this guide, we will walk you through the process of 3 different methods for moving your content, including using the WordPress Dashboard, manually editing your database, and leveraging a third-party plugin.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Method_1_Using_the_WordPress_Dashboard\"><\/span>Method 1: Using the WordPress Dashboard<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The easiest way to move your WordPress posts is by using the WordPress Dashboard. This method is simple and straightforward, but it may not work for everyone \u2013 for example, if you need to move a large number of posts at once, this process can become tedious.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s how to move WordPress posts using the WordPress Dashboard:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Log in to your WordPress Dashboard.<\/li>\n<li>Navigate to the Posts section.<\/li>\n<li>Select the post that you want to move.<\/li>\n<li>Click on the Edit button to open the post editor.<\/li>\n<li>In the sidebar on the right-hand side of your screen, you\u2019ll see a Category section. To move the post to a different category, simply select the checkbox next to the new category you want to move it to.<\/li>\n<li>If you want to move the post to a new site altogether, you can use this same method to copy the post content to a new post on the new site.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Method_2_Manually_Editing_Your_Database\"><\/span>Method 2: Manually Editing Your Database<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re comfortable working with your website&#8217;s database, you can move your WordPress posts by editing the database directly. This method requires a bit more technical expertise, but it can be faster and more efficient if you&#8217;re moving a large number of posts at once.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s how to move WordPress posts by manually editing your database:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Log in to your WordPress site\u2019s cPanel or a similar hosting control panel.<\/li>\n<li>Navigate to phpMyAdmin, which you can usually find under the Databases section.<\/li>\n<li>Find the WordPress database you want to edit and click on the plus sign next to it to expand it.<\/li>\n<li>Find the wp_posts table and click on it.<\/li>\n<li>Find the row for the post you want to move and click on the pencil icon to edit it.<\/li>\n<li>In the post&#8217;s row, look for the column labeled post_category. Change the number in this column to the ID of the new category you want to move the post to.<\/li>\n<li>Click the Save button to save your changes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Method_3_Using_a_Third-Party_Plugin\"><\/span>Method 3: Using a Third-Party Plugin<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Finally, if you&#8217;re looking for a more automated way to move your WordPress posts, you can use a third-party plugin. There are several plugins available that make the process of moving posts easier and faster, and many of them offer additional features that can help you better manage your content.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few popular plugins that can help you move your WordPress posts:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Advanced Post Types Order: This free plugin lets you order and rearrange your posts, pages, and custom post types using drag and drop.<\/li>\n<li>Bulk Move: This affordable plugin lets you select multiple posts and move them all to a new category at once.<\/li>\n<li>Post Type Switcher: This free plugin lets you easily switch your posts, pages, and custom post types between different formats (for example, from a post to a page).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Moving WordPress posts can be a perplexing process, but there are several methods available that make it easier to manage your content. Whether you choose to use the WordPress Dashboard, manually edit your database, or a third-party plugin, make sure you back up your site before making any changes.
