    Default Easier way to publish unpublished products?

    Hello, I find it extremely time consuming to have to go back and select the UNPUBLISHED NEW ITEMS category everytime you publish (or update other categories) 1 product. Is there a way to stay in the category to publish/update other products. Seems like a step backwards from version 7. I also miss the product icon picture and the sku. Am I missing a config somewhere? Thanks for any help

    Why not just open each product in a new tab?

    Could you post a screenshot of what you're looking at? I may be on a different version of the storefront, or I am just not understanding your problem correctly.

    Default Anyone else see this as time consuming and a downgrade?

    I just tooled around with the demo for v9 to see if I could offer some advice. I wasn't able to find an easy way to do what you want to do -- and now I'm seriously questioning whether I want to upgrade. The new admin interface looks a lot nicer but it seems to take 3 times as long to do certain things (4 clicks to get back to and edit a product as opposed to having an active link in the category listing). Not being able to open products in separate tabs is a serious buzz kill for me, I don't think I could work without it.

    For us honestly we would be doing changes like this through an import.

    If entityedit.apsx is not in RadWindow can you open the link new tab or window then?

    Radwindow is a control simulates a new browser window on a page. Basically what was asking you to do was to go to https://yousitehere/adminfolder/enti...yName=category. Once on that page see if you can open the product in a new tab then.

    If not see you can open the Products for category link in a new tab. Once on the products for category link (entityProducts.aspx) see you can open the edit product links in a new tab.
