    Hi,
    we recently upgraded from Incarnation to Enfold; and installed a new sermons plugin “Sermon Manager for WordPress”; but all old sermons’ posts were not able to move into this plugin successfully. We can see the posts from the same posts database but just cannot make it showed up on website.

    Help is need to help move over all the old sermons. and how we can limit access to these sermons to registered members only.

    thanks,
    Tom

    Hey Tom,

    Unfortunately, this kind of migration is not the theme function, so I am sorry to tell you that this is not covered by our support. However, if it’s really important for you to get this done, you can always hire a freelancer to do the job for you :)

    Best regards,
    Victoria

    Hi,
    As I understand in the old theme Incarnation, the sermons were a custom post type (CPT), much like the way “Portfolio” items are a CPT in Enfold, so the reason they don’t show now is that Enfold is not recognizing them.
    I think the easiest way to work around this is to export this post type from your old site, that is if you have a working “Incarnation” site, or backup that you can install on a temp site, or localhost just to run the export.
    Then you can import to your sermons to your Enfold site and use Post Type Switcher to change the post type to something your Sermon Manager plugin can use.
    If you don’t have a backup, I believe you can install Custom Post Types to add the correct CPT so your site will show them. If you choose to go this route please seek advice for the “Custom Post Types” plugin as I don’t use this and would not know how to set this up.
    Another option may be to ask the Sermon Manager plugin how they can import a CPT, the plugin looks to have a few different import options, so perhaps they have a function to do this already.

    Best regards,
    Mike
