    Default Re: Product general in document general

    The Music Type is not really safe to just change the Product Type on as there are multiple tables involved ...

    If you only accidentally picked Music and did not add any music data, you could do this but you would need to clean up at least the table:
    product_music_extra

    NOTE: there are several database tables involved with Product Music besides this one ...

    It is really better to re-add the Product under the right Product Type rather than try to convert from Product Music to Product General ...

    If you are really good at managing the database tables in phpMyAdmin you can try this ... but make sure you have a really good backup of your database as you could end up with a real mess ...

    I will just leave things as they are for right now. Thanks for the words of caution.
