If you've upgraded to WordPress 5.0+ and have existing content created with the Classic Editor, this plugin automates the conversion process, saving you hours of manual work.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>The Problem:<\/strong>\nWhen you upgrade to WordPress 5.0+, all your existing Classic Editor content gets wrapped in a \"Classic\" block. To properly convert this content to individual Gutenberg blocks, you would normally need to edit each post manually and click \"Convert to Blocks\" - a tedious process if you have hundreds or thousands of posts.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>The Solution:<\/strong>\nBulk Classic to Block automates this entire process. It scans your entire site, identifies all classic editor content, and allows you to convert everything to proper Gutenberg blocks with just a few clicks.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Key Features:<\/strong>\n* <strong>Universal Post Type Support<\/strong> - Works with posts, pages, and all custom post types\n* <strong>Smart Scanning<\/strong> - Automatically detects classic editor content across your entire site\n* <strong>Flexible Conversion<\/strong> - Convert all content at once or select specific posts to convert\n* <strong>Post Type Filtering<\/strong> - Filter and convert by specific post types (posts, pages, or custom types)\n* <strong>Status Filtering<\/strong> - Filter by post status (published, draft, scheduled, private)\n* <strong>Individual Control<\/strong> - Convert posts one at a time or use bulk actions\n* <strong>Automatic Indexing<\/strong> - New content is automatically indexed as you create it\n* <strong>Safe &amp; Efficient<\/strong> - Uses WordPress core APIs for reliable conversion<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>How It Works:<\/strong>\n1. <strong>Scan<\/strong> - The plugin scans your content to identify posts created with the Classic Editor\n2. <strong>Review<\/strong> - View a detailed list of all posts that need conversion, organized by post type\n3. <strong>Convert<\/strong> - Choose to convert all posts at once, or select specific posts using checkboxes\n4. <strong>Done<\/strong> - Your classic content is now properly structured as Gutenberg blocks<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Perfect For:<\/strong>\n* Sites migrating from Classic Editor to Gutenberg\n* Users with large amounts of existing content\n* Developers managing multiple sites\n* Anyone who wants to modernize their content structure<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Important:<\/strong> The conversion process is irreversible. Always create a full backup of your site before converting content. We recommend testing on a staging site first.<\/p>\n\n<!--section=installation-->\n<ol>\n<li>Upload the plugin files to <code>\/wp-content\/plugins\/bulk-classic-to-block\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n<li>Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n<li>Navigate to <strong>Tools &gt; Classic to Block<\/strong> (or click \"Settings\" on the plugins page)<\/li>\n<li>Select a post type from the dropdown (or choose \"All Types\" to scan everything)<\/li>\n<li>Click <strong>\"Scan Content\"<\/strong> to find all classic editor posts<\/li>\n<li>Review the scan results showing how many posts need conversion<\/li>\n<li>Choose your conversion method:\n\n<ul>\n<li>Click <strong>\"Convert All\"<\/strong> to convert everything at once<\/li>\n<li>Or select specific posts using checkboxes and use the bulk actions dropdown<\/li>\n<li>Or click <strong>\"Convert\"<\/strong> on individual posts<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/li>\n<li>Wait for the conversion to complete - you'll see progress updates<\/li>\n<li>Done!
