How to remove a product from a category magento 1.

问题:

I'm kind of new in Magento and I'm working on a cron job that removes a product in a specific category after the date that was assigned. With work and the help of Stackoverflow, I came up with this code:

require_once 'app/Mage.php';
Mage::app();
$date = Mage::getModel('core/date')->date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
$collection = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->getCollection();    
$collection->addfieldtofilter('news_to_date', array(array('to' => $date)));        
foreach($collection as $product) {        
   $product->setStatus(Mage_Catalog_Model_Product_Status::STATUS_DISABLED);
   $product->save();
 }

This checks the actual date and compares it with the date of the products. If the date has passed, the product is disabled. What I need is that instead of disabling the product, the code should remove the product of the category (in this case the category is 'Sales')

I hope you guys can help me!

Thanks in advance!

You need get all category ids from product, then remove Sales category ID from category ids array and set them back to product.

Example, Sales category ID is 5.

foreach ($collection as $product) {
    //Getting all category ids
    $ids = $product->getCategoryIds();
    //Searching array key with value 5 and removing from array
    if (($key = array_search(5, $ids)) !== false) {
        unset($ids[$key]);
        $product->setCategoryIds($ids)
        $product->save();
    }
}

P.S. You can use magento cron job functionality, than you do not need to use:

require_once 'app/Mage.php';
Mage::app();
