Hi Can you please share how can i delete woocommerce products without images using mysql

DELETE p FROM wp_posts p join wp_postmeta pm on p.ID = pm.post_id WHERE p.post_type = 'product' ';

This will delete all products and its meta without the media

Hi Thanks for your response. What i actually want to do is, in my store i have some products with images and some products with the image link. I would like to delete all products which do not have an image.

Thanks a lot! @ruscon

I have added a custom taxonomy product_brand to the list.

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';

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', 'product_brand') 
	);

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

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;

DELETE FROM wp_woocommerce_sessions;

Does anyone know how to delete all products, with image data etc, before a specific date? Like the creation date of the product?
