V1.7 Remove empty categories

[terawiz2020]

Hello,

This script removes all categories without associated products.

Built for an integrated store with Bigbuy, where this supplier creates categories without products at each request.

Running in Prestashop 1.7.7 and 1.7.8

Instalation:
1 - unzip
2 - upload the file remove-empty-categories.php to your prestashop root
3 - run the script from yourdomain.com/remove-empty-categories.php

Note: If you have you store integrated with other platform or supplier erp, you can add a cron job to run the url.

Can it be done by native features of Prestashop?

As far as i know, can be executed in phpmyadmin to remove categories. Directly in prestashop I don't know.

In the client that are using, bigbuy sends many categories without products, and runs in a cronjob every minute.
