Topic: How do you get rid of post relationships after pooling them?

Posted under e621 Tools and Applications

"If a parent scheme was set up first and those posts are later pooled, clear the parents from the pool."
I for the life of me can not fined out how. I added two older child/parent relationships into a pool with a newer post to make it easier and more enjoyable to view but do not know how to undo the child/parent relationship to not make it "redundant".

Open each individual "child" post you can find in the pool (i.e., the ones with the yellow border on the thumbnails), go to Options and click on Edit, then remove the numbers from the "Parent" section and press Submit.

Note that you can also edit posts and add parent:none child:none to the tags then submit it, that's a lot quicker than clearing a text box and also kills two birds with one stone (it also works wonders if there's dozens of images patented to one you want to remove at once)

Thanks. I reread the Help Pages a lot but could not find anything so that helped.
