Is there a way to change a catalog show into a cooking show on PP plus. I started a show as a catalog and then she a had a few friends that wanted to see some products and I did a little demo. She has many orders and I really don't want to redo all that work if I don't have to.
 


I would also like to know how to do this thank you
 
Hi,
When you are on your Shows screen, just click on Summary, then it will say edit show type and select a different type of show.

Hope that helps!!
 
You cannot change it. In fact, if you start as a cooking how and go to the summary screen to switch it to a catalog show, a pop up will say "If you select this show type, you will not be able to edit show type again". Once it is entered as a catalog show it cannot be changed.

Oh, I just did that on one of my show to see what you are saying. I guess that if you change it one time you should have to change it back again. If you do need to change it back again, I guess you could delete the whole show and start over again.

When you set up the show, if it is ANYTHING but a catalog show you can switch it back and forth to anything EXCEPT a catalog show. So, cooking to wedding shower, etc.

However, once a catalog show always a catalog show. Once it is changed to a catalog show it will always be a catalog show.

That's right. So I enter shows as Cooking (or Bridal, or Fundraiser), and then "downgrade" them if I need to.

It stinks.
