Thanks Steve
All my language feeds now have unique Ids.
With the new version 1.12.5 , for the german and french feeds I'm getting diamond shaped question marks ie occup�
I didn't get this problem with the earlier versions.
I tried removing the htmlentities function from Googlefroogle as previously suggested however it didnt work.
Any help would be appreciated.
Being the masochist I am, I decided to try out 1.12.5, despite my version working perfectly.
I found my feed being rejected where a degree symbol was in use and a corrupted character (square) was being created.
I find the reason in google_base.php (as always), in the sanita function which has been moved and mostly commented out.
Regressing this code to include the charset again:PHP Code:function google_base_sanita($str, $rt=false) {
//global $products;
$str = str_replace(array("\r\n", "\r", "\n", " "), ' ', $str);
$str = strip_tags($str);
//$charset = 'UTF-8';
//if (defined(CHARSET)) {
//$charset = strtoupper(CHARSET);
//}
$str = html_entity_decode($str, ENT_QUOTES);//, $charset);
//$str = html_entity_decode($str, ENT_QUOTES, $charset);
//$str = htmlspecialchars($str, ENT_QUOTES, '', false);
//$str = htmlentities($str, ENT_QUOTES, $charset, false);
return $str;
}
Fixed my problem.PHP Code:function google_base_sanita($str, $rt=false) {
//global $products;
$str = str_replace("\r\n", ' ', $str);
$str = strip_tags($str);
$charset = 'UTF-8';
if (defined(CHARSET)) {
$charset = strtoupper(CHARSET);
}
$str = html_entity_decode($str, ENT_QUOTES, $charset);
//$str = html_entity_decode($str, ENT_QUOTES, $charset);
//$str = htmlspecialchars($str, ENT_QUOTES, '', false);
//$str = htmlentities($str, ENT_QUOTES, $charset, false);
return $str;
}
Just installed 1.12.4 over an old version that was throwing out the "availability" error and causing 0 products to show up in google.
Ran the uninstall script, then the install script. Everything looks ok on the admin side, but when clicking the xml file, it is blank. Before this upgrade, if the xml link was clicked, it showed all of the products like an rss feed.
Tried to upload it to google and only a handful of products were inserted, all of which were sold long ago. The feed level messages shows "XML formatting error - Error".
Turn on the sanitizer function and see if that makes a difference.Quote:

No, it kinda sounds like it's not installed properly. Did you turn on debugging so that you can see the products as you export?
With debug mode on, the popup shows that the products are being exported without errors, but then the actual xml file is still not showing anything.Quote:

Good point. When viewing in the browser, nothing is there. But before, it used to display each product almost like looking at a blog's RSS feed.Quote:

I upgraded from an older (don't even know how old) version. Uploaded all the files. Then ran the update_1_12_4 SQL script then ran the uninstall script, then ran the install script again. Not the right way probably, I know. But the weird thing is that all of the settings in admin seem to have stayed the same. Is that normal?
