We encountered a problem with the products: a couple of weeks ago, we noticed that some products appear in the order with changed names. Not all the products, but random ones.
As we use variants and translations, we noticed that for some of them, things gone crazy.
Usually, we are leaving the variant and translation names empty. There are some filled, but not many.
This way, the main product name name is transmitted to the variant, followed by the variant name.
Now, we started to found product variant names filled with the variant name itself, randomly in a language, but sometimes in the main language too.
For example:, if product name is : PRODUCT NAME, and we have a variant: 500ml, then even if the product name was left blank in the MAIN OPTIONS TAB, we found there, from nowhere, written 500ml.
More then this, today we found the blank space filled with the product picture name, for each variant.
For example, if the product picture for 500ml was PRODUCT_PICTURE_500ML, then in the MAIN OPTIONS for the 500ml variant, we found written PRODUCT_PICTURE_500ML.
Of course, wecorrected those problems (where we could) by deleting them, but we can show you some orders with this issue, wich we can discover only manually, or maybe looking into the database, do not know yet.
Also, and this is an older problem, if a product name for a variant is filled with a descriptor, and this is true mainly for translations, if we simply want to delete it, we can not. We need to replace it with something.
For example, if in the ro-RO or en-GB NAME field in the MAIN OPTIONS for a variant we wrote let say, RO_NAME, or EN_NAME, if we want now to let it now, we simply can not do it. Of course, we can delete, save, but after reopening, the name is there again.
Also, we would need to remove some languages (working with Falang) safely. Still, we do not know how to do it. In the past we tried, and encountered many problems. I do not remember now all of them, but they were. Maybe you can advice this too, or point us to some resouce we missed.
Thank you.
