Custom Post Type Migration | ww.wp.xz.cn

Hi.
On my site I have created a new post type: AZIENDE.
Now I have nearly 1 million of posts.
I wanted to change the post type slug, so I renamed the slug and clicked the option to migrate posts, see screenshot: https://www.screencast.com/t/TE7CdJ01GVL3
Having 1 million posts, the site times out and I see an error after some minutes.
How can I do? Can it be done via cron?

Waiting,
thanks.

Admittedly, I never bothered to test that functionality with that many posts. Never thought I’d need to 😀

Perhaps a better way, given that volume, would be to make use of MySQL instead. I suspect that’s going to be more efficient with time as well as have fewer timeout issues.

Something like this post looks like it’d work https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17668138/change-name-of-a-post-type-without-losing-posts

Of course, please do back up the database first.
