How do you change a page's type in 5.7?
Permalink
In 5.6, a page's type could be changed via the design menu, as the page type and template were one and the same thing.
In 5.7, it's also pretty obvious as to how to change the page template, but how do you change the page's type? (i.e. you picked the wrong one and want to change it)
Is this locked down after the page has been created?

Yeah, currently it is. It's a complex beast, given all the various defaults that we have to manage, and the fact that portions of the new page type system – most notably, permissions that inherit from page type defaults in advanced permissions mode – still don't work.
I thought this might have been the case, thanks.
To be honest I can't think of many cases where I'd want to change a page type, over simply deleting it and starting again - data driven pages are likely to have very different sets of attributes anyway.
Just thought I'd ask in case I missed some obvious button!
