Possible to make changes to existing product?

[Pixelan]

Is it possible to make changes, for example changing a graphic, to an already published product?

Until now, whenever changes were needed I changed the product A then published it as a new product B and deleted A. The big downside is that any links already pointing to product A will be useless also if the product was marked as trending it isn't anymore.

unfortunately, the Replace option is still only available to a select number of creators. see thread here: Solved: Re: Edit/Replace product - Zazzle

Unfortunately, at this time, even if you have the replace product tool, you can not change a design or graphic.

You can only change the "graphic" if it is a "placeholder image" that the customer is forced to replace. After the product is published, you can not use the replace product tool and add a "placeholder image" or "text box" and make them a template (make this a template object)

I posted, in another thread, what you can and can't do with the replace product tool. https://community.zazzle.com/t5/ask-a-question/deleting-saved-designs/m-p/101690#M8262

@plumb4me I clicked the link and it took me directly to your posting that is in the middle of the threads, so I don't need to go through the thread and 'search' your posting  - how to attain a link like that?

In the forum I click on my notifications and then on the notifications feed page, I find the thread that contained my post. I click on that thread and copy the link in the address bar and paste that link in my new post here.

You go also look under "my profile" in the forum and click on one of the post you replied to and copy and paste that link. I have more luck using this way.

Most of the time it works, but sometimes It doesn't work. Sometimes, I have to wait a moment before I copy that link, because the page will refresh itself to my post. If the page doesn't refresh itself, then odds are the link will not go straight to what I posted. I test all the links I post, before I post them in the forum.

Click the little arrow at the top right of a post and then click Permalink from the drop-down. Then copy & paste that URL from your address bar.

Here's the Permalink for your post here:

I learned something new, I've been doing it the long way.

Thanks for the replies!

Hopefully this replace feature will be made available in the near future, it will save everyone a lot of time.
