Removing a product from a group

Hey guys,

What's the correct way to remove a product from a group, when I have the product object?
Alternatively, I can just remove all products from a group - if you don't know a good way to solve the first problem.
A second alternative - removing a product from all groups it's associated with. How's that done?

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi Bo,

You should to use ProductGroupRelation object.

For example http://developer.dynamicweb-cms.com/Forum/Development/Custom-module---product-import-with-variants.aspx

You just need to make reverse operations :)

Hi Dmitry, maybe You could help little bit more.

I am trying to
make same thing, remove product from the group. I have tryed to do it in
any logical way i could think of but could not make it work.

Here are few examples of my code :

Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.GroupCollection goupe1 = Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.Group.getGroups("GROUP251");
   Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.ProductCollection prodCol = Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.Product.getProductsFromGroup(goupe1.get_Item(0));

   foreach (Product prod in prodCol)
   {
     Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.ProductGroupRelationCollection pgrc = Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.ProductGroupRelation.getProductGroupRelations(prod);
     foreach (ProductGroupRelation pgr in pgrc)
     {
        pgr.Delete();
        importStuff.AppendLine("Product with ID : "+ pgr.ProductID + " was deleted from group with ID : "+ pgr.GroupID);
     }
   }

another:

Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.GroupRelationCollection groupRelColection = Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.GroupRelation.getGroupRelations("GROUP251");
    foreach(GroupRelation groupRelation in groupRelColection){
         groupRelation.Delete();
         importStuff.AppendLine("3");
    }

few mores:

 Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.GroupCollection groupCol2 = Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.Group.getGroupRelations("GROUP251", "GROUP251");
      Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.ProductGroupRelationCollection prodRel2 = Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.ProductGroupRelation.getProductGroupRelations(p.ID, "GROUP251");
      Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.ProductGroupRelation.getProductGroupRelations(p.ID, "GROUP251").Clear();
      Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.GroupCollection groupCol = Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.Group.getGroupsBySearch("GROUP251",1);
      foreach(Group group in groupCol){
         if (groupCol2.ContainsById("GROUP251"))
         {    
           groupCol2.Remove(group);
         } importStuff.AppendLine("1");
      }
      foreach (ProductGroupRelation rel2 in prodRel2)
      {
          rel2.Delete();
          rel2.Delete(importedProducts);
          //rel2.Delete(importedProducts,"GROUP251");
          importStuff.AppendLine("2");
      }

Of course i have left out
the examples that seemed to be most obvious : like remove from group
methods and etc. Can You or someone help us with this one ?

Hi Vilius, Dmirty is at vacation.

To delete a product from a group you need to execute next code:

eCommerce.Products.ProductDeleting.Run("PROD881", "GROUP10", eCommerce.Common.Context.LanguageID)

It will remove product (id = PROD188) from a group (id=GROUP10).

Kind Regards

Try this...

// Get the product.
var product = Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.Product.Create("PROD1");

// Get the group relations for that product.
var relations = Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.ProductGroupRelation.getProductGroupRelations(product);

// Loop and delete relations.
foreach (Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.ProductGroupRelation relation in relations)
{
    relation.Delete(); // Contains a bug and does not work at all!
    relation.Delete(relation.ProductID, relation.GroupID); // You need to pass the correct id for product and group.
}

// Alternative approach...
var rel = new Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Products.ProductGroupRelation();
rel.Delete(product.ID, "GROUP1"); // Delete relation to a specific group.
rel.Delete(product.ID, string.Empty); // Delete relation to all groups.
