You can either <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/edu\/prestashop\/disabling-products\/\">disable the product<\/a> or delete it from your database entirely. Disabling products is usually the best option as it preserves the data integrity of your site. If you need to get information for a product that a customer purchased long ago that you no longer carry, it will be there. Deleting a product outright, on the other hand, will cause that information to not be found.<\/p>\n<p>Still, if you have products that are most certainly not going to be used, such as test products, you may want to permanently remove them from your store.
