I have some existing posts of some existing type. I have created a new custom post type (with CPT UI). I now want to move these existing posts under the newly-created post type. Is this possible, or do I have to manually copy the content from these posts to have them in the new format?

Thank you.

    You want to make another copy of the posts or move the old posts to new CPT? If you want to move, then there is very handy plugin called post type switcher, using it you can easily modify post type of any post and it will automatically be part of new CPT. This is the plugin I mentioned wordpress.org/plugins/post-type-switcher – Mohsin Feb 4 '20 at 7:28
