Delete multi products from the online stores is a common and necessary option. We considered an option for delete multi product in the WooCommerce bulk product editing plugin.
You can delete the products according to any features by filtering them from the “Filter Form” or after finding them from the “Quick Search” box and selecting in our Plugin.
Filter products
To delete multi products in this plugin, you have to filter considered products.
For example, in this tutorial we are going to delete the products that their stock quantity is less than 3. To do this following the below steps:
- Open the Filter Form > Stock.
- Set the stock quantity in the range of “0” to “3”.
- Click on “Get Products” button.
Set columns of product table
At the first, it makes sense to add the columns related to the stock quantity as we filtered them before.
As we have already created this “Column Profile” as a preset named “Stock”, we can easily apply it to our table from the Profile Column as below:
if you click on “Apply to Table”, it show just the products with the stock quantity less than “3”.
For more information in this regard, you can refer to “How to manage product columns on WooCommerce bulk product editing”.
