Google Merchant module Version 1.12.0 by Numinix

[pricediscrimination]

Well now I see I'm a bit behind on all the required attributes for categories. Thing is, it was working fine up until now without that. If you leave "Google Product Category Default" will it work without needing attributes?

And...... in case I do try to set up attributes, the plugin doc says "Go to ADMIN->CATALOG->ATTRIBUTES CONTROLLER and assign the option to a product being sure to select display only" however, setting it to display only prevents items from being added to the cart and (as this thread mentions) you can't have the attribute you want to use set as display only.

UPDATE:

Product feed seems to be accepted by Google now. The issue was with the Shipping Country not being defined. This was caused by the error above that is actually a bug from an older version of this plugin. The fix the error, I went to myphpadmin searched for google_cfg_pull_down_country_list and changed to zen_cfg_pull_down_country_list. Then went back to the regular site admin and added United States as the Shipping Country.

Then, in order to not need the attributes, I removed the "Google Product Category Default". Google is throwing up a warning about it, but not an error, which means products will start to be searchable. This means in the future they will probably make attributes mandatory to screw with people.

The conclusion is that this whole fiasco started in the first place because the tax/shipping info was not defined in the admin. With the upgrade and these changes, everything seems to be back to normal.

Thanks.

Searching this thread (going back one page) would have turned up post #451. See if this solves your issue..

Hi chaps, just wondering where I should start with this. Installed it, but can't get any output at all: an XML file is created, but there's nothing in it. What might I be overlooking?

Just so things don't get confusing, you are running the v12.x version of this right??? Also what version of Zen Cart are you running..
