    Default Admin/Catalog/Product Types

    I am using Cherry Zen v1.3.9h

    This is probably a really dumb question but I have been searching all over and can't find the answer. When I go to Admin/Catalog/Product Types, it shows that I have 5 products listed under "Document - Product". How do I identify which products those are? And when I do, how do I change them to "Product - general"?

    Thank you,
    Lynn

    Using phMyAdmin (phpMyAdmin, silly typo), you can look in the table:
    products

    and see the setting for the field:
    products_type

    As the Document Product does NOT use additional tables than regular Product General, you should be able to backup your database and then change these to be products_type 1 rather than products_type 4 ...

    Hi.

    So sorry, I am feeling really dumb at this point. I found phpMyAdmin in my GoDaddy hosting section (I hope I am looking in the right location; I noticed you directed me to phMyAdmin with no "p", but I couldn't find that). If that is the right location, I do not know where to find the table. Could you give me more specific instructions on where to find the table you are referring to.

    I appreciate the help.

    I was able to find the table. Sometimes, it just takes asking the question and then you feel foolish because you go back and see it

    Thanks for responding and helping me - I NEVER would have known to go to phpMyAdmin. I didn't even know what it was.
