Unlinking a symbol

Design help General
#1

Hello everyone!

I am afraid to unlink a symbol, because I think it will break all the instances :grimacing: So question is, if I unlink it, will the the rest applications of this symbol still exist as symbol on other pages?

I am asking, because I have a footer now as a symbol, but I need to copy, unlink it and create new version of the footer for other language as a new symbol. So I want all my linked footers to remain as an original symbol and from one of them to create a different new symbol. Hope it’s not too confusing.

Thank you!

Hi, go to the page with the instance that you wish to unlink. Hover over the instance and right-click the mouse for a short menu that will say unlink. This will separate this instance from the other and return it to code. The others will remained ‘linked’ together.
