Google Base Feeder Support Thread [OLD]

Thanks for whoever it was that mentioned the version 1.10.3. I had just uploaded the 1.10.2 to contributions.

What he has now done is remove the sanitizer completely and says "make sure your store uses UTF-8 and properly encoded characters"

So this means that some of my customers will not be using this version for the moment. Their products upload with 1.10.2 but not with 1.10.3. We are talking over 2000 products and fixing all those descriptions is not feasible at this time.

This is not the first time he's played with this so I do not know what it means for the feeds come the 22.

All I know is that asking websites to have everything exactly right from the get go is just not what most of my customers do. So therefore the sanitizer is vital.

He also says he added "improved support for product variants"

so if that's your concern, go for it. I may end up uploading a zen cart version 1.10.2b without the sanitizer changes. Let me know your preferences please.

We found the same problem with version 1.10.3 and had to go back to version version 1.10.2.
Is there any chance you could write the changes I posted into version 1.10.2b so "Google Product Type" can be done on a per product basis. If you need a a copy of the old ASA mod to take the coding from I now have this and can send to you.

I be glad to look at it but there's definitely no promises. There might be a better way of doing this based on existing working mods. If my work load allows, I'll spend some time with it. Just delia at deliawilson.com
