Delete product images for WooCommerce

by Eduard Doloc

Download
Description

This small and lightweight plugin deletes all product images automatically when the product is deleted (from trash).

The plugin uses the “before_delete_post” action and runs a delete (wp_delete_post) for the product ID that is being deleted, this is done automatically and works with any number of products (server performance limited)

Contributions are welcomed on https://github.com/rwkyyy/delete-product-images-for-wc

  1. Download the plugin
  2. Upload it to your site (if you’ve installed it through WordPress Dashboard skip this step)
  3. Activate
  4. Enjoy!
Will this work with any product?

Yes, it should work with any type of product (CPT).

Where can I see it working?

Please check the default WooCommerce logs (Woo > Status > Logs)

Can you make it work with more CPTs?

To be honest, I did not found the motivation in putting the work for making the plugin compatible with any CPT, but if I see interest in this plugin I’ll do that in time, or if you want to submit the update/any other updates yourself, just make a pull on Github and I’ll update it here.
