Moving WordPress categories

Almost every posting you read on how to “correctly” run a blog says you shouldn’t have too many categories. I was guilty of that problem, so I trimmed down my categories quite a bit with the help of a plugin called Category Converter.

It’s a one file plugin that you upload to the plugin folder of your WordPress site. After activation you’ll have a new menu under Options that’ll allow you to move every posting from one category to another category while deleting the first category along the way.

So I’ve gone from about 30 categories to about a dozen, stripping out a few that only had one or two posts in them.
