In reply to: How To Change Category ID ?As I said in my first post — I need to know how to make the amendment myself.
For many reasons (which aren’t worth outlining here, because there are too many) I will not be able to update all the various scripts we use, which use the original IDs.So, if anyone can please give me a link, or tell me, how to return the Cat ID’s to their original values, I would be very happy.
Thanks.

In reply to: How To Change Category ID ?Thanks.
To be honest, I didn’t realise there was more than one type.
When I set up Gravity Forms on the site, I added the Cat IDs I found by hovering over the category links and finding the ID in the URL at the bottom left of my browser page. I don’t know which IDs those are but those are the ones used by Gravity Forms and some other scripts.
Although it may be the other type of ID is also necessary to change — but I don’t know what the original ID is for any other kind.
Any ideas?

In reply to: Create Tags from Categories?Thanks guys.
I used the p;lugin you suggested, but it did something I wasn’t expecting — it deleted all my categories when it copied them over to tags.So now my problem is this:

In reply to: Multisite Subdomain setup ProblemThanks for your reply, I came up with an alternative solution.
Apparently, if you do a standard WordPress install (single site) and you revert it to a Multisite its DEFAULT setting is subdomain, rather than subdirectory.
For some reason, I don’t know, if you install the site originally as a multisite (EG with Softlucious, etc) it defaults to subdirectory. And for some other reason I don’t understand, it doesn’t seem to like being changed from subdirectory to subdomain.
That’s my interpretation, anyway.
So I deleted my previous install. Installed WordPress as a single site. Reverted it to multisite, and – BINGO – I have the subdirectory format.
Job done – spend hours trying to do it the ‘quick way’!

No. But they were funny.
Thanks to you both.
