- WP e-Commerce Bug Fix: When duplicating a product, correctly duplicate the variations.
Previously when duplicating a product in WP e-Commerce, the product’s variations weren’t completely duplicated. Instead, they were linked to the original product, which meant that editing the new product’s variation pricing would also affect the original product’s variation pricing.
Products that have been duplicated prior to today require manual fixing.
For example, if:
x = original product
y = newer product (that was created by duplicating product x prior to today)
the following needs to be done to correct the variations:- Product y needs to be duplicated again (creating product z)
- Product z then needs to be edited, and the variation pricing updated so it is correct
- Product y then needs to be deleted
The end result is product x and product z co-exist, with properly separate variations.
