I don't know how it happened, but one of my products suddenly became the parent of hundreds of child products. How do I unlink them?
I searched Google. Nothing. I searched this forum 2 ways... "unlink child products" no results... then I searched "remove child products"... no results. Finally I searched simply "child products" and got ONE SINGLE RESULT that doesn't even mention the linking mechanism. (http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=98648.msg325461#msg325461)
So apparently I'm the second person in the history of Virtuemart to EVER ask a question about unlinking child products? I don't believe that for a second. So then what's going on here? Why is there virtually NO INFORMATION about what seems like a VERY COMMON FEATURE???
Can anyone tell me how to unlink a child from it's parent? I'm even willing to pay for a solution. Name your price.
Here's my system info, if it matters:
