Magento Delete Products and Categories%%
The database structure used in Magento can be very complex to new starts – hence why recently I outsourced a major database manipulation project.
Part of this project involves wiping the database of products and categories frequently. So I decided to put this post into place – not because its nesessary original discovered or particuarily interesting. I created it simply so I can easily come back to the information I need when I am cleaning the database on test runs I got bored having to google each time and as you’ll see this is not exactly easy to remember.
