Google Base Feeder Support Thread [OLD]

[kitcorsa]

also when i view my feed by visiting the link its blank...... but the process does complete and google does see the items but i can,t view then.... is this due to the new secrete code in the settings??

my feed for google is also used to populate other price comparison sites so will this effect them??

Has anyone installed the version released yesterday? V1.11.2 ?

Am I correct in assuming that that version does not require "numinix product fields" ? I am down from Google as of two days ago and have not done anything as yet due to the massive amount of merging that the numinix product fields requires to _tpl_product_info_display.php . I have many custom functions in that file and did not want to push the envelope so to speak.

Is Jeff also working on incorporating "stock by attributes"? (another merge nightmare)

Thanks

It still requires the Numinix Product Fields mod.

v1.11.2 working just perfectly...

I changed to UTF-8 in myphpadmin, had my favorite superhero programmer set up the new version v1.11.2 and we are back on Google... everything listed! This is installed without any additional add-ons including numinix product fields mod. In our case, since we make our own products etc., we only were lacking availability. Now we will be adding some code to place different site categories, by cat number, into their respectful google categories.

All is good

I had to uninstall and reinstall the sql patches several times but it finally showed in the feeds configuration. Great!
Thanks for all the help guys!

If you're doing custom made products, of course you don't need the product fields mod since custom products don't require unique product indentifiers.

We may have to add that as we add lines like drapery rods, custom shades etc., but thankfully we didn't have to go through too much just to get availability working. The new version spits out a feed faster than ever... it is very nice. The UTF-8 took me 2 solid hours but that is done now.

We have pillows made from French and Italian fabrics and the names were being rejected by the feed as code or undocumented characters but with UTF-8, all is well. No issues whatsoever.

NOW WHAT DO I DO?

There is an issue in your feed that you will need to sort out. Google will only populate upto the issue and then will stop. Try opening the feed link in the latest version of internet explorer. You will get an error page but if you click on learn more it may point to the exact location of the error in your feed which you can then sort out.
