 * Hi there!
 * You could do it that way which works fine but best read into what could go wrong
   by taking this path. I have a link for you below:
 * [Blog Vault – Converting Page to Post](https://blogvault.net/convert-page-to-post-or-vice-versa-in-wordpress//Blog V)
 * If this is a common occurrence for you or might be something you do regularly–
   I would suggest getting the [Post Type Switcher Plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-type-switcher/).
   I haven’t used it personally myself but it has great reviews and seems to do 
   the trick.
