WordPress Jetpack Portfolio Post-Type

2 comments

1. You could just change the post-type of the posts created using the Jetpack plugin to that of the new theme. There are a lot of ways to achieve this.

   1. You could directly get your hands dirty and achieve this from phpMyAdmin. To do so, login to phpMyAdmin and run the following query:

      UPDATE  `wp_posts` SET  `post_type` =  'post_type_used_in_betheme' WHERE  `post_type` = 'post_type_used_in_jetpack';
      

   Remember to modify the code to replace post_type_used_in_betheme and post_type_used_in_jetpack.

   2. Else, use a plugin like Post Type Switcher.

   3. Use one of the methods mentioned in this WPSE answer.

2. I was recently decide to uninstall Jetpack because It causes my website receiving the error: “cURL error 28: Operation timed out after 10000 milliseconds”. I had used Jetpack’s portfolio option and deleting the pluggin all posts are lost. So before I decided to change the post type from ‘jetpack-portfolio’ to ‘post’ and also update the Jetpack tags ‘jetpack-portfolio-tag’. Additionally, Jetpack categories must be manually removed and manually reassign new categories to migrated posts.

   Update tags:

   UPDATE `wp_term_taxonomy` 
   SET taxonomy = 'post_tag' 
   WHERE taxonomy = 'jetpack-portfolio-tag'
   

   Migrate portfolio to post:

   UPDATE wp_posts 
   SET post_type = 'post'
       , guid = concat('https://yourwebsite.com/?p=',ID) 
   WHERE post_type = 'jetpack-portfolio';
