Grateful for your time and help on this.
There are different things.
Sitemaps is for google indexing your site to show up at google.com
Google Base Feeder is to insert in Froogle (aka Google Base, aka Google Products, aka Google Shopping) all or the category of prodcust you want to insert in its product comparation site, like Yahoo Shopping
Hope clarifies why 2 different modules

Re: Google Base Feeder Support Thread
Just upgrade my Google Feed install, with the hope that it would feed through my sale prices, instead of the original price of the items, however it's still only feeding the original price.
Could someone tell me how to feed the sale price, or at least the price that the customer pays - be it sale price, standard price or specials price etc?
Many thanks!

This upgrade made no changes to the code other than to the FTP so there is no reason for it to timeout if the previous version worked for you...
I had this same problem, but the readme file didn't explain this change.
I've now changed the filename in the configuration from feedname.xml to feedname
I also had to reconfigure my Google Base feed on Google, to accept the new file name - feedname_products.xml
As a note, if I use the original cron job (ie, before I upgraded to the latest version), a small xml file is created, with nothing in - feedname_.xml
Because of this, I had to change my cronjob aswell, so it included the &type=products switch at the end.
Just a note to those who have upgraded!
Re: Google Base Feeder Support Thread
The default name for the feed is "domain" not "domain.xml"
I'll add some sanitization in the future to drop .xml on the filename if it exists.
Re: Google Base Feeder Support Thread
It used to be "domain.xml", but since the upgrade, it has to be set to "domain" - and then your Google Base account also needs setting up again, to take the new file name, as the feed now exports the file as "domain_products.xml".
Re: Google Base Feeder Support Thread
Is it possible to use the Google Feeder with Easy Populate installed?
I'm using ZC 1.3.7.1 and Google Feeder 1.5.3 and Easy Populate 2.76e_R1.
I've set up a Google Base account with FTP.
I've set up a cron task that creates the feed on a nightly basis.
The thing I'm missing is the UPC in the feed file so it is failing.
How do I get the UPC into my product feed? Do I need to make changes to the database to get it in there and if so, how do I do this and do I then need to modify Easy Populate so it accepts the UPC on import of new data?
Thanks,
techgorilla
Re: Google Base Feeder Support Thread
You can use AUCTION SITE ATTRIBUTES to add the UPC to each product. You should also upgrade to the latest version of GBF.
Re: Google Base Feeder Support Thread
I have installed today, can create the feed fine but when uploading get this message:
Google Base Feeder v.1.6.7 05.12.2007 12:53:59 started 2008/02/12 16:44:35
Feed file - /data/members/paid/k/u/kutuu.co.uk/htdocs/www/shop/feed/kutuugooglefeed_products.xml
Processing: Feed - No, Upload - Yes
Upload started...
Login failed:
Connected to: uploads.google.com
Upload failed...
Is it the username and password? I'm sure they're correct .....
Could it be the name of the feed? In the admin config I put "kutuugooglefeed" and in google base have tried registering it as "kutuugooglefeed" "kutuugooglefeed.xml" "kutuugooglefeed_products" and "kutuugooglefeed_products.xml". None have worked ....
I also tried downloading the xml file created and uploading it manually on the Google website but that told me there were errors with the xml file ... it seemed to be all the first section like the shop name so I cut all that out but now it says line 3 is wrong which just says <channel>
Any help would be great!
