Title: Deactivate Last modified: July 27, 2017 --- # Deactivate * Resolved [lotsamottsa](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lotsamottsa/) * (@lotsamottsa) * [8 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/deactivate-7/) * I recently migrated Drupal content over to WP using FG to Drupal plugin. I need to import the Tool Types plugin, because some of the content was set up as custom nodes. I used the post type switcher to convert the custom posts over to regular posts and switched all the custom fields to the correct WP field locations. Is it ok to deactivate and uninstall this plugin now, or does it need to stay activated?

I already migrated the content from Drupal—that’s why I needed your plugin (via suggestion by FG to Drupal). However, I converted all the custom fields (copy and pasted) into the standard content, excerpt and title fields, and then converted the custom posts into standard blog posts… so I’m guessing I’m all set with Tools plugin, but I’ll mark this as resolved once I know I’m all set.

When using FG Drupal to WP, if Drupal content is set up as custom nodes.. there is a prompt recommending to use your plugin to convert those to custom post types. * [@makeonlineshops](https://wordpress.org/support/users/makeonlineshops/) That’s exactly what I did.. converted blog posts to regular posts. I had concern about the redirects and reached out to FG Drupal support. They are handled inside FG plugin inside the table wp_fg_redirect. They actually also are connected the post ID, so when you change urls inside WP, the redirects automatically update! Which is awesome! I do have to keep FG Drupal activated, but Types doesn’t affect the redirects. * Now that they are regular posts.. I deactivated Types and everything including the redirects are still working fine (NOTE: I did not migrate categories and tags, we are restructuring those.) * Thanks for your input!
