I am working with a Joomla / Virtuemart install and ran into a problem

  • 0

I am working with a Joomla / Virtuemart install and ran into a problem when trying to update Product Type Parameters.

I have a Product Type with Multiple Values as the Parameter type. I then have a list of possible values like so: Type A;Type B;Type C.

I need to change the names of some of these values. For example, let’s say I want to change Type B to Type X. I can easily change that in the Possible values field, but all of the products that are currently assigned to Type B are not assigned to Type X upon the change. So the newly renamed Type X is empty.

Is there any way I can bulk update or change all of the products assigned to Type B to become Type X?

    You have four solutions:

    1. Modify the category name if all the products in that category are to be affected (e.g. change category name type b to type x).

    2. Use the virtuemart plugin Bulk Product Type and Product Parameter Manager.

    3. Download your mysql files for the involved database tables and alter them manually.

    4. Do it manually from inside virtuemart (especially if the items being changed are not many).
