Issues After updating – few questions

Hello,
After upgrading to 9.7.2 we faced with multiple problems.
So far, we have used the possibility of modifying the existing templates (Style 1, 2…) that we used in the Child theme. And that worked fine. Now for custom templates we need to use the Cloud Library plugin.
Its very good solution. But now we have 4000+ posts to set up to use a new template – made in the Cloud Library plugin. Is there a way to change the templates via the MySql database in phpMyAdmin? For example: All posts that are using Post template: Style 3 to change to use New template that we make with Cloud Library plugin….

Thanks

Hi,

The post template of a post can be changed only by editing each post, this would take a lot of time however if there are that many posts.
These topics may be of use if you would like to attempt this in the database

Be sure to make a backup of the database before, or even better consider testing this at first in a local or sub-domain copy/clone of the website. This would be much safer than trying it in the live website database.

Thanks
