I'm just getting started with Drupal 7 (and Drupal in general) and I have a question that the internet can't seem to answer. If one of my users creates a node using a specific content type, is there an easy way to go back and change content types for that node? I know I can do this directly in the database but I'm going to use this Drupal install on a large site and the users who will need to change a node's content type won't have access to the database. I know I can also simply recreate the node using a different content type (and then re-link everything) but this seems like more work than necessary.
There is an old drupal module called nodetype that would add the functionality that I'm looking for, but this module has been marked as obsolete and abandoned. This leads me to think that this functionality has been merged into the core or is available in a different module. Any ideas?
Just follow this steps: 1- Create new view (table display) . 2- Filter : content type (current_state & desired_state). 3- Add your fields.
Click the page title link in the Title column for the page you want to edit. Click the Edit Draft tab. Make changes in the applicable fields.
Content items managed by the Node module are typically displayed as pages on your site, and include a title, some meta-data (author, creation time, content type, etc.), and optional fields containing text or other data. (Fields are managed by the Field module in Drupal 7.)
For those looking, this module will do it: drupal.org/project/node_convert
