Bulk/batch delete product ID's

[Rene]

Hi,

Is there a way to batch/bulk delete product ID’s. I imported 700 products that are no longer required. To keep my products manageble I wonder if I can batch delete them?

Thanks

I have been meaning to add an option for this. Anyway, you can do this from your PHPMyAdmin. The following video tutorial should help:

How to Easily Import or Export any of Your WordPress Database Table Content

Once you learn how to use PHPMyAdmin, you will be able to delete lot of product entries from eStore’s product database table easily. You will need to look in the “wp_eStore_tbl” table in your PHPMyAdmin.

Thank you, I have once deleted a DB by accident and lost my website. I know its silly but we are just humans and humans make mistakes. I have learned my lesson. I’d rather wait for a “delete in bulk” feature on a future release before I mess around with the PHPMyAdmin.

The Manage Products page Bulk Actions->Delete function fails if the products are in a category.

Actually it looks successfully but the wp_eStore_cat_prod_rel_tbl entries for the deleted products are not removed.

Deleting a single product with the Edit Delete does remove the rel_tbl entry.

To reproduce:

1. Have at least 3 products and assign each of them to a category (assumed to be id=1 for the following)

2. Create a page to display all the products in the category using the shortcode: [wp_eStore_category_products:category_id:1:end]

3. Go to the page to see the 3 products.

4. Go to the admin Manage Products page and select 2 of the 3 products.

5. Apply the Bulk Delete

6. The products will disappear as expected.

7. Go to the page to see the remaining 1 product.

You will see php errors because the deleted products are are still in the category table but no longer in the product table!

Thank you for reporting this bug. I have fixed it and sent you an updated copy of the plugin.

You can do the following to remove any orphaned category data in the table. Go to the following admin interface of the plugin:

WP eStore -> Admin Functions

Then Click on the following button:

Resync Products and Category Relations Table
