If you encounter something like Lock wait timeout exceeded; try restarting transaction just execute rows from SQL script one by one.

remove all products and relations

DELETE relations.*, taxes.*, terms.*
FROM wp_term_relationships AS relations
INNER JOIN wp_term_taxonomy AS taxes
ON relations.term_taxonomy_id=taxes.term_taxonomy_id
INNER JOIN wp_terms AS terms
ON taxes.term_id=terms.term_id
WHERE object_id IN (SELECT ID FROM wp_posts WHERE post_type='product');
 
DELETE FROM wp_postmeta WHERE post_id IN (SELECT ID FROM wp_posts WHERE post_type = 'product');
DELETE FROM wp_posts WHERE post_type = 'product';

Remove all products, categories, meta and relations

DELETE FROM wp_postmeta WHERE post_id IN (SELECT ID FROM wp_posts WHERE post_type = 'product');
DELETE FROM wp_posts WHERE post_type = 'product';

DELETE pm FROM wp_postmeta pm LEFT JOIN wp_posts wp ON wp.ID = pm.post_id WHERE wp.ID IS NULL;

delete from `wp_termmeta`
where 
	`term_id` in ( 
		SELECT `term_id`
		FROM `wp_term_taxonomy`
		WHERE `taxonomy` in ('product_cat', 'product_type', 'product_visibility') 
	);

delete from `wp_terms`

DELETE meta FROM wp_termmeta meta LEFT JOIN wp_terms terms ON terms.term_id = meta.term_id WHERE terms.term_id IS NULL;

DELETE FROM wp_woocommerce_attribute_taxonomies;

I want to find a way hot to remove all out of stock products in database. I found below code

DELETE p FROM wp_posts p join wp_postmeta pm on p.ID = pm.post_id WHERE p.post_type = 'product' and pm.meta_key='_stock_status' and pm.meta_value='outofstock';

but it shows Unexpected keyword near join.

By the way i'm using mariadb 10

Thank you so much!

Hello @ruscon,
why I get the error "Unexpected keyworkd (near LEFT JOIN)" in the row "DELETE meta FROM wp_termmeta meta LEFT JOIN wp_terms terms ON terms.term_id = meta.term_id WHERE terms.term_id IS NULL;"?

Thanks

@allampatu, @ruscon
I have to insert an empty serialzed array in the row with value "_transient_wc_attribute_taxonomie" from wp_options, otherwise the woocommerce attribute-section complains and import of products with attribute doesn't work.

UPDATE wp_options SET option_value='a:0:{}' WHERE option_name = '_transient_wc_attribute_taxonomies';
