Node Convert not converting nodes

I have the same problem.

This change solved it for me, it involved putting in:

$converted_node->type = $dest_node_type;

before node_save($converted_node); in node_convert_node_convert().

I don't know why this is, so this patch should be considered experimental/dangerous.

Patch is working fine, however as it seems to introduce some other changes someone should probably review it.

Bumping to major as the module was useless for me without the patch.

Also a better title.

Same problem, 7.x-1.0 version of this module does not work.

Node Convert declares it worked, bragging "Node NNN has been converted successfully" (sic: redundancy is in the displayed statement). But nothing actually happens to the node.

Given the 18 months since 7.x-1.0 was released, we are waiting for the module manager to fix it, to determine if this module is actually still maintained.

Bumping to critical as there were other issues created with the problem.

Here is a version of the patch with just the change mentioned.

Fixed in 1.1 release.

Strangely, I can't reproduce the problem, nodes convert perfectly on Drupal 7.17 without the fix. Maybe it has something to do with race conditions?

Nonetheless, the change won't harm anything.
