Mass delete (child)categories (9K+)

    Hi folks,

    I thought I was creating the right structure when importing my address CSV file with around 9000 rows in it. What I did wrong, was creating a category for every item / row.

    Isn’t there a “faster” method to delete child-categories? Or child-child-categories..
    I’m absolutely no developer, but more a designer.

    Anyone who has a query example? Or some other solution maybe.
    There must be a query available to do such. In that case I don’t think it would be very hard for the WP developers to attach that to some function in the backend. But maybe I’m completely wrong here :-D

    Thank you for thinking with me!

    Hi there,

    What is the address of the site you are referring to? I checked and there isn’t any content or categories on that site.
