Cannot delete hidden products

    My system has somehow created false and hidden woocommerce products that are not listed in the products page but are shown in the counts above. The pages are being shown in google search with duplicate names but do not show anywhere in the system list (nor products, nor pages nor posts). I only have one product listed here but the counts shows different. I now want to delete them all. I was able to edit and delete some pages from google search but couldn’t find them all. I use TTBM travel booking plugin to list my products.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.

    Hello @birajsadhikari,

    Perhaps try deleting orphan variations from WooCommerce > Status > Tools.

    If that didn’t help, then please attach a copy of your site’s system status report. You can find it via WooCommerce > Status. Select “Get system report” and then “Copy for support”.? Once you’ve done that, paste it here in your response.

    Also, do you have any idea of the plugin that created these products?

    Look forward to hearing back from you.

    Thank You @babylon1999 for your response. I actually use a travel plugin that seems to be creating the issue. The plugin also seems to need those false pages to operate properly. I managed to delete them to trash but not empty it. I also excluded them from my sitemaps so for now the problem has been resolved.

    I would however like to keep the deleted products in the trash forever. Is there a way to do it? Does WordPress automatically deletes them permanently or not? Thank You.

    Hi @birajsadhikari ,

    Thanks for providing an update!

    I would however like to keep the deleted products in the trash forever. Is there a way to do it? Does WordPress automatically deletes them permanently or not?

    The default is that items in the trash are permanently deleted after 30 days.

    If you are interested in learning more about how to change the number of days for the delete to happen or disable the delete, you can check out this article.

    Hope this helps!
