$wpide_related_exclude = array(
'products' => array(), // Product IDs.
'categories' => array( 'gift-cards', 'parts' ), // Category slugs.
);
add_filter( 'woocommerce_related_products', function ( $ids ) use ( $wpide_related_exclude ) {
return array_values( array_filter( (array) $ids, function ( $id ) use ( $wpide_related_exclude ) {
if ( in_array( (int) $id, array_map( 'intval', $wpide_related_exclude['products'] ), true ) ) {
return false;
}
return ! ( $wpide_related_exclude['categories'] && has_term( $wpide_related_exclude['categories'], 'product_cat', $id ) );
