    Default [OLD] Google Merchant module Version 1.12.0 by Numinix

    This is the NEW thread for the latest version of Numinix Google Merchant Version: 1.12.0


    1. If you have any prior version of GM installed you must un-install by using the sql un-install located in the file.
    2. Install the NEW sql patch.
    3. Upload all NEW files.
    4. Make sure the feed/goolge file is chmod at 755 or 777


    Google Requirements:


    1. Basic Product Information

    A .id [id]- An identifier of the item
    B. title [title] - Title of the item
    C. description [description] - Description of the item
    D. google product category [google_product_category] - Google's category of the item
    E. product type [product_type] - Your category of the item
    F. link [link] - URL directly linking to your item's page on your website
    G. image link [image_link] - URL of an image of the item
    H. additional image link [additional_image_link] - Additional URLs of images of the item
    I. condition [condition] - Condition or state of the item

    All of these conditions should be automatic if everything is set-up correctly with your Zen-Cart.


    Troubleshooting:

    D. google product category [google_product_category] - Google's category of the item

    This is a must. You have to follow Google's cateogry tree. I had to change all of my categories to match theirs.
    How I did it (and it took me a full day to do it) is I made the required categories for my products and moved my items to the right categories. If anyone knows a better way, then please post it.

    Here's their category tree:

    catergory tree here

    Example: If I sell shoes, then my categories would be the following:

    Shoes - Main category


    Sub categories:

    Athletics Shoes

    Boots

    Flats

    High Heel Shoes

    Loafers & Moccasins

    Outdoor Shoes

    Sandals

    Slippers

    Trainers


    2. Availability & Price

    A. availability [availability] - Availability status of the item

    1. Your Zen-Cart must have "show quantity stock set to 1.
    2. Your GM config must have Show Quantity (true) & Default Quantity (1)

    B. price [price] - Price of the item
    C. sale price [sale_price] - Advertised sale price of the item
    D. sale price effective date [sale_price_effective_date] - Date range during which the item is on sale

    3. Unique Product Identifiers

    A. brand [brand] - Brand of the item
    B. gtin [gtin] - Global Trade Item Number (GTIN) of the item
    C. mpn [mpn] - Manufacturer Part Number (MPN) of the item


    These are the most common problems. Please read first before posting.

    Hi,
    I have zen 1.3.8a with gm 1.12.0 with numix prod mod.

    My configuration is ok.
    I have GMF in the tools menu BUT WHEN I CLICK ON IT I'm taken out to the ADMIN home screen.

    I uninstalled patches from 1.9.0 til present and reinstalled them but still go to ADMIN home screen!!

    What is missing??

    Marvin, did you completely un-install it and re-install the new version?

    Here is a fix for the Shipping Country problem:

    You can fix this by editing your admin/includes/functions/extrafunctions/googlefroogle.php

    HTML Code:
    if (!function_exists('google_cfg_pull_down_country_list')){
    	function google_cfg_pull_down_country_list($countries_id, $key = '') {
    		global $db;
    		$name = (($key) ? 'configuration[' . $key . ']' : 'configuration_value');
    		$countries = $db->execute("select countries_id, countries_iso_code_3 from " . TABLE_COUNTRIES);
    		$countries_array = array();
    		while (!$countries->EOF) {
    			$countries_array[] = array('id' => $countries->fields['countries_id'],
    				'text' => $countries->fields['countries_iso_code_3']);
    			$countries->MoveNext();
    		}
    		return zen_draw_pull_down_menu($name, $countries_array, $countries_id);
    	}
    }
    Make sure you add it above:

    ?>

    Are you talking about the 1.12.0 mod or the sql file?

    This is just a guess:

    Do you have this twice on your product page?

    HTML Code:
    <meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no" />
    <meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no" />

    If I understand you correctly you want to create "out of stock".

    To the best of my knowledge I don't think Google will allow that. Items must be in stock.

    I checked in Google, they accept <g:availability>out of stock</g:availability>
    http://www.google.com/support/mercha...r=188494#other

    However, I don't really know the search results will include 'out of stock' items or not.

    The reason to include 'out of stock' items in the feed, is to let customers know items may back in stock later.

    I will try another <g:availability> value 'preorder', just using find and replace with some text editor.
    Let see search results will include 'preorder' items or not.
