Woo Product Remover Plugin

Woo Product Remover allows you to remove all woocommerce products from your site. It cleans up your database from products and product variations

Woo Product Remover allows you to, via a single click, remove all woocommerce products from your site. It cleans up your database from products, their metadata, relationships, as well as product variations and their related meta data.

It handles removing all standard woocommerce product types including simple, grouped, external and variable, as well as related variations.

Some of this work has been inspired by https://www.kingrosales.com/blog/how-to-properly-delete-all-woocommerce-products/ which has been improved upon and made to work properly within wordpress and to cleanup product variations.
