I have inherited a legacy wordpress installation which has a complex template with a couple of custom post types.
I want to migrate it to a simpler theme and convert all the custom post types back to regular posts.
I have gone into the wp_posts table and changed the values in the post_type column from “product” or “service” or whatever back to “post” and the posts in question now load into the template, but they don’t show up in the list of posts in the admin page. If I load the editor on another post, and change the ID in the url bar to one of my would-be normal posts, they will load up and I can edit them, but I just can’t make them show up in the posts list.
Is there somewhere else I need to change things to make WordPress see them as standard posts?
