alias problem was created by komir
Hi, my colleague, on product creation has been added some custom words to product alias. I sow that and have a problem with back them to the first state?
Example;
Product is sony play station and main alias is sony-play-station, but colleague add few words and now it looks like sony-play-station-best-gaming-console-for-teenagers
Is there any way to reset all aliases? It is not possible ower administration, is it possible over PHPMyAdmin or some other way?
Thank you

Hi,
When you edit a product in the backend, you have the "alias" field you can use to change the alias. Just save and that's it.
Doesn't it work for you that way ?
The common issue with this is that the shop owner has another product with the alias they want to use for a product, and the alias must be unique for each product (and that's the same in the database).
Another common issue is that the shop owner has canonical URLs and when changing the alias, he doesn't change the canonical URL of the product and thus the link to the product generates a 404 error on the frontend.
But besides these two points, it should work just fine via the interface provided.
