How to run SQL command to export woocomerce products from database

Hi @aikzhobi.

If you don’t know how to run SQL queries, you’re better off not trying to do that as you run the risk of severely damaging your site if you don’t know what you’re doing.

I’d recommend looking exporting your products via the built-in CSV product export functionality. You can learn more about that here – https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/product-csv-importer-exporter/#export

Hello @luminus
Thanks for your reply. But issue is that my website get hacked and I am unable to access website or admin. I have downloaded website’s files and database, I am trying to export products from database and to create new website with old products. That’s why I want to export product from database.
Is there any easy way for it?
Regards

@luminus , @rynald0s
I have shown all database by this command;
show databases;
Now list of database has been shown, Then I typedname of database and pasted this command;

SELECT product.ID as product_id, product.post_title as product_name, replace(product.post_content, '"', "'") as product_content, product_sku.meta_value as product_sku, product_price.meta_value as product_price, product_weight.meta_value as product_weight
FROM wp_posts as product
LEFT JOIN wp_postmeta as product_sku ON product.ID = product_sku.post_ID
LEFT JOIN wp_postmeta as product_price ON product.ID = product_price.post_ID
LEFT JOIN wp_postmeta as product_weight ON product.ID = product_weight.post_ID
WHERE (product.post_type = 'product' OR product.post_type = 'product_variation') AND product_sku.meta_key = '_sku' AND product_price.meta_key = '_price' AND product_weight.meta_key = '_weight'

But nothing happened. Please tell me how to run this command?
I am attaching screenshot also, please check it.

Hi @aikzhobi,

Based on what you’re saying it sounds like you have a backup of your site and database. The easy way to go would be restoring the backup on a new site. Said that, there are numerous MySql tutorials online and you could start checking here to fetching data from a Command Prompt.

Thanks.

Thanks for reply
backup files are infected, that’s why I can’t restore it on a fresh WordPress. But the link you shared, I think it will help me in exporting products from database.
Actually I want to export in cvs file, so I will be able to import it in fresh website.

Hi @aikzhobi!

It looks like you may have copied the query wrong .. it’s full of invalid characters and if anything, will produce SQL errors.

Try the code as it is here via the SQL tab in your phpmyadmin:

Also, why don’t you just export your products using the built-in core import/.export tool? What exactly do you need to do?

Cheers!

Thanks for reply
I have exported products table from phpMyadmin and imported it in fresh website. Products have been imported but without categories. Then I exported categories table also, but in woocommerce importer there is no option to import categories.
Please tell me how to import categories of products?

Hi again,

but in woocommerce importer there is no option to import categories.
Please tell me how to import categories of products?

I would now:

• Export all products as CSV: https://d.pr/i/l92Rt4
• Then edit the CSV and add the category
• Reimport the CSV to apply the product categories

Kind regards,
