When you started out blogging, you thought about all the core genres you are going to write about or rant about whatever the case maybe, but something that interests you. Over time, those ideas change or get refined. Maybe you branched out. You may have established categories in your blog, some of which you might not be blogging about any more or maybe created a broader area category. How about something that can Condense your wordpress categories, Rename categories , Add categories and also Delete moved categories

Now, you have two options if you wish to convert categories of your WordPress Posts

1. Go to each and every one of the posts you wish to change categories and then modify their categories. This is however very time consuming.
