| Feb 13, 2014 at 5:49 | comment | added | David | Just to add a little more info to rinogo's comment, this is a little safer way to update the guid: UPDATE wp_posts SET guid = REPLACE (guid, 'post_type=<old post type name>', 'post_type=<new post type name>'); | |
| Mar 1, 2013 at 20:44 | comment | added | rinogo | When I did this, I updated the guid field as well. This might help make it unnecessary to regenerate permalinks as @AndyGiesler mentioned. Just include the following in your UPDATE statement: guid=REPLACE(guid, '<old post type name>', '<new post type name>') | |
| Mar 11, 2011 at 20:06 | comment | added | Andy Giesler | Excellent answer, exactly what I needed. Here's a tip in case others hit the same problem as I did: After I ran the query and updated my code, things were basically working but when I tried going to the page for an individual content item I got a 404 error. I think some permalink cache needed to be reset; I went to Tools > Permalinks and clicked Save, then the detailed pages started working. | |
