Google Merchant Center Feeder for ZC v1.5.x [Support Thread]

[DivaVocals]

Question for anyone running this..

I realize that I have to add the following attributes:
Size, Color, Age Group, Gender, Material, Pattern, ISBN, EAN, UPC, and Google Product Category

Seems as if UPC, and Google Product Category are required for ALL products, but what about Size, Color, Age Group, Gender, Material, Pattern, ISBN, & EAN?? If these attributes do NOT apply to my products, do I HAVE to include these attributes for those products that they do not apply to? If the answer to this is yes, what values do I use for the option values for attributes that do not apply to my products???

I've installed a new 1.5.1 Zencart store and I am running Google Merchant Center Feeder version 1.13.0. All would appear to be ok, but when I click to generate the feed file, it pauses for a while like it is doing its job but then it throws up a 550 page not found.

Any ideas anyone?

I just wanted to update this thread, as I found the solution to my 550 Page Not Found problem when installed in v1.5.1... The issue seemed to be around the Timeout Setting in the Admin > Configure page for the Merchant Centre Feeder. I removed the timeout so there was none, and then the feed starting working fine and stopped producing the 550 Page Not Found error.
