It's fantastic, I had to move 30,000 records among 300 categories .... You saved me, God bless you

Works great with WP 5.8.3

By alexio on January 20, 2022

Easy, done the category transfer without any problems.

Highly Recommendable

THank you for this! I cleaned up my Kategories in 5 Minutes and everything works and nothing is lost.

Don't work with latest version

By onedaythreeautumns on September 28, 2021

Even if I check the 'keep all remaining tags' it removes them. The same goes for categories. It doesn't move it, rather removes one tag to another...

Not working

Post is still removed from the category its in...

Quick and Easy Category Transfer

By wordtheory on November 5, 2019

After starting and running a blog for 2 years, we realized we had too many categories. We went from 20+ categories down to 5. Rather than editing hundreds of posts one by one, this plugin allowed us to quickly and easily transfer our old categories to our new categories. Thank you for this plugin - it was huge time saver and a real gift!

Very useful and a handy tool

By syhussaini on August 24, 2019

I found this tool very useful and handy especially when I had to work with a few thousand articles in a snap.

Useful tool

Good and useful tool, saving a lot of time :) Thank you!

Didn't remove the category but added Uncategorized into the posts

By raibrightfox on January 29, 2019

Worst plugin I've ever used so far. It didn't do the job, and plus, made it even worse, now I have both Uncategorized and the Category I wanted to remove attached to my posts...

Didnt work for me! Instead it messed up things on the server

By marcbousleiman on January 15, 2019

This plugin didn't work well. After activating it and making it move less than 300 posts from one category to the other, the page crashed after moving only 10 posts and the server went down. NOT RECOMMENDED!
