[node_convert] Node Convert

Is someone consider porting this module to D8 ? I used it extensively in D7. IMO, it's a really useful one.

I just made a content type conversion mod based on the following tutorials:
http://www.noreiko.com/blog/changing-type-node
http://enzolutions.com/articles/2015/12/22/how-to-get-content-type-field...
http://enzolutions.com/articles/2015/01/21/how-to-create-a-multi-step-fo...

I put it up at:
https://www.drupal.org/sandbox/el/2851641
and
https://github.com/mlibrary/convert_nodes

Do not use it on a production db without a backup! This works for the content types I needed to convert but may not on yours and could damage your db.

Feel free to give it a try on a dev instance and let me know how it works for you.

@el1_1el tried out your module and it worked but this module here is about converting just one node at a time from one content type to another, not all nodes of a type at once.

Have you considered extending convert_nodes to cover the use case of node_convert?

Yeah that would be a good idea since node_convert hasnt been ported.

I'd be happy to help with a patch if you want to get started on it. :-)

converting one by one node by viewing is tedious IMO, instead https://github.com/mlibrary/convert_nodes can provide autocomplete element to select node(s) of source content type that needs to be converted.

BTW I tested that module and worked fine.

probably easier to work on it here - https://www.drupal.org/project/convert_nodes

I appears that node_convert-7.x will be replaced by https://www.drupal.org/project/convert_bundles for D8. This was noted on the module referred to in #8

Can the maintainer confirm this?

Thanks

With convert_nodes and convert_bundles Closed(Duplicate) seems to reflect current Status.
