nealc Posted August 6, 2010 Posted August 6, 2010 Yeah seems simple enough or so I thought! I uploaded a new easy populate file with some new products to add to my site, I know everything is correct when I created the .csv file, but for some reason instead of creating my category ->sub category->sub-sub category, it uploaded and created a category->and 3716 sub categories with 1 product in each category!!!! So needless to say when I go into the admin to just drop the single category I receive a timeout error which is weird and strange on it's own because I have many other categories with more products than this one so anyway, the only way I can delete these 3716 categories is to click the folder icon for the category and delete each one individually!! What a pain in the **s. So what I am wondering if there is an SQL command that I can run in PHPMyAdmin to delete just this one category? I am currently just learning osCommerce and PHP, but am always willing to help out.

nealc Posted August 6, 2010 Author Posted August 6, 2010 Ok, so I was able to delete the category by going into mysql and deleting the parent category id, however all the products that where associated with the category remain but do not show under any category. I think I muffed something up!! I am currently just learning osCommerce and PHP, but am always willing to help out.
