Remove or control related products in WooCommerce — no code required. Hide them globally, by user role, or per single product with the Premium version.

== Description ==

**Want to remove related products in WooCommerce?** Whether they distract your customers, clutter your product pages, or simply don't fit your store's strategy, NS Remove Related Products gives you full control — with zero configuration and zero coding required.

Install, activate, and the related products section is gone. It's that simple. Already used by thousands of WooCommerce stores worldwide.

**Why remove or control related products?**

Related products can be a useful upsell tool — but not always. On focused product pages they create distraction. In large catalogs they're often irrelevant or random. For stores with a curated customer journey, they break the flow. This plugin lets you decide what's right for your store, without touching a single line of code.

**Need more control? Upgrade to Premium.**

The free version removes related products globally in one click. If you need finer control — showing them only to certain users, overriding settings per product, or customizing how many appear and in what order — the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.nsthemes.com/product/remove-related-products-for-woocommerce/">Premium version</a> gives you everything you need:

* **Enable / Disable** the plugin with a single click, without deactivating it
* **Audience targeting** — show related products to all visitors, to registered users only, or hide them entirely
* **Per-product override** — set a custom rule directly on individual product pages
* **Number of products** — choose exactly how many related products to display
* **Order By** — sort by date, title, random order, and more
* **Ascending / Descending** — full control over sorting direction
