How Do I Delete a Programmatically in WooCommerce?

Last updated on January 17, 2023 @ 11:15 am

In WooCommerce, you can delete a programmatically by using the WC_Product::delete method. This method takes an array of product ids as its only argument. You can use the WC_Product::get_id method to get the product id from a WC_Product object.

To delete a product in WooCommerce:

1. Get the WC_Product object for the product you want to delete.

2. Call the WC_Product::delete method, passing in the array of product ids.

You can also use the WC_Product::delete_meta_data, WC_Product::delete_related_products, and WC_Product::delete_product_transients methods to delete product data stored in other places.

PRO TIP: If you are unsure about how to delete a programmatically in WooCommerce, it is best to consult with a professional first. Deleting a programmatically can have unintended consequences and may cause problems with your website.
