Maybe someone could confirm that - Thanks,
I was not fully accurate in above statement:
Well, the .xml file is skipping the linked products, HOWEVER, the products skipped seem not to be based on the 'master category' (products table > master_categories field) - they seem to be rather random...
Do you think it could be more practical if the products listed in xml will be 'associated' with the master category instead of linked category? I guess it may not matter to some, but maybe it would be beneficial? Anyone any thoughts on this?
Re: Google Base Feeder Support Thread
It is a timeout issue, he/she needs to create a php.ini file in addition to changing the max execution time in Zen Cart.
Seems like you will need a max-execution time of about 120s on your server if only 1/4 of your UNLINKED products are appearing in the feed file with a 30s max-execution time.
Re: Google Base Feeder Support Thread
when i try to generate an xml file, i just get a blank page almost instantly. the SQL installed correctly, and i have it configured properly. why is this happening?
Re: Google Base Feeder Support Thread
Have you got wordpress module installed at all as I had the same thng happen.
Re: Google Base Feeder Support Thread
Ditto on the wordpress module. Same thing happened to me. It's a piece of junk that screws up lotsa stuff.
Re: Google Base Feeder Support Thread
Hi everybody :)
I'm having a bit of a problem setting up the feed.
The issue I believe I am having with the shop is that the location of the shop is at http://www.duckworthsuk.com/shop/ (when you visit http://www.duckworthsuk.com the index.php forwards you on to http://www.duckworthsuk.com/shop)
These are the settings you are after.
Store Address: http://www.duckworthsuk.com/shop (also tried http://www.duckworthsuk.com/)
Output Directory: feed/ (also tried /feed/)
The odd thing is that first of all it puts an extra "shop" in the URL, so it looks in http://www.duckworthsuk.com/shop/sho...orthsukcom.xml (or http://www.duckworthsuk.com/shop/sho...orthsukcom.xml when output directory is "feed/"). I have created a blank file in the above directory that will be overwritten. However, when I click on the "Click [HERE] to create / update your product feed.", the javascript window updates with the index page, and the feed file generated is invalid (it's actually HTML).
You can see it here: http://www.duckworthsuk.com/shop/sho...orthsukcom.xml
I am using SEO URL's 3.0.0-beta1 as well, could that be conflicting with it?
I have created a blank .xml called "duckworthsukcom.xml" in

I get the following error for any version I install even the latest 1.5.3.

Re: Google Base Feeder Support Thread
I don't have access to php.ini unless I install my own php. I think it would be easier to just create the file offline. :unsure:

You have the same MySQL version as I do, so I am not sure what the error is. Please completely uninstall the script by running the uninstall.sql. Then upload all of the 1.5.3 files overwriting any existing files and then reinstall the googlefroogle.sql file by copying and pasting. Let me know how it goes.

Yes, you can create a php.ini and place it in your store's root directory.
