Simple Product to Virtual Product Change?












1















If we have created a simple product in Magento but it was supposed to be a virtual product, is that a simple fix on the back end?



We created a large number of courses that do not require shipping and have no physical product. Would a simple query to correct this and rewrite be possible?

          Not on the backend, Magento wont allow you to change it from backend. Instead,



          Run this command on DB



          UPDATE catalog_product_entity SET type_id='virtual' WHERE entity_id=xxx


          Where xxx is the product id



          Query is same for both Magento 1 and Magento 2

            Just edit the product in admin and set This item has no weight and save.

            It is automatically changed to virtual product.
