Faq
Our plugin currently supports only standard post types and the standard category taxonomy.
Not at this time. An easy workaround would be to create a temporary category to select the specific posts you want to convert. After the conversion, you can delete the temporary category.

Works but could be improved
By 
It works!
Although:
– Not for my custom post types created with ACF
– I had to adjust "Posts to process per page reload" and click "Convert" a few items to get all my 350 posts converted
– The result message doesn't seem reliable (showing "127 posts converted" repeatedly when converting a category and its parent category)
– A calculation of the conversions to be made before clicking "Convert" would be very nice
