Title: Child products from existing product
Post by: Ferran on November 25, 2020, 13:59:32 PM
Hey guys,

Is there any way to create child products from "normal" existing product? for example, i have products a, b and c and i want that b and c will be childs of a. I have lot of products that we must convert in childs of others and i will prefer not to create them from 0..

Thanks in advance!

Set parentid in product edit to whatever parent You want the child to have. 0 = no parent.

You can use the Stockable Custom Fields. It offers a way to select existing products as children.

There is a button in any product edit, to create a child, which automatically redirects you to the child.

There are 2 solutions in vm to offer children as options.
