 * Still didn’t work with 3.1.
 * Workaround
    ========== I mass-converted **all** of my Pages to Posts using [Vice Versa](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/vice-versa/)
   and then converted them back to Pages using Convert Post Types, which allowed
   me to use Convert Post Types succesfully to convert the selected ones I wanted
   to custom posts.

 * The plugin works in 3.1 without any changes. I’m posting an update right now,
   but it doesn’t change the underlying logic.
 * It looks like the code I posted in the other thread got zapped by a moderator.
   I could reproduce the problem with pages when I created my custom post types 
   using the 3.0 arguments for register_post_type(). When I updated the [capabilities array as described in the Codex for 3.1](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_post_type),
   the plugin worked as expected.
 * In short, the problem apparently has to do with permissions in the custom post
   type definition, not with the plugin.
