Google Base Feeder Support Thread [OLD]

[Woodymon]

This may have been posted previously but worth repeating...

If having troubles uploading, submitting your bulk upload be sure to visit
http://groups.google.com/group/base-...2d25947786ee96

For instance a recent post to the above thread:

SYSTEM ALERT: 6:00 PM: Our bulk upload processing system will be undergoing a scheduled maintenance for the next two days (7/16 to 7/18). During this time, bulk uploads submitted through the Google Base web interface or via FTP will not be processing. We'll update
this thread once the scheduled maintenance has been completed.

Thank you Woodymon. Google was down for accepting bulk uploads during those dates. It's possibly due to a bug that I reported to them in which the price was not displaying in base.google.com but was displaying in google.com/products. The bug has been fixed and now they are accepting bulk uploads again.

Yes my latest upload was accepted, reviewed and published within an hour. And I'm not (yet) including all of the required attributes or substitute item type, optional or custom attributes that GoogleBase says they require.

Yes, although Google says they require the UPC attribute, they do not seem to enforce it yet. I did the Zen Cart community a favour and added this feature in advance and also modified a couple of contributions to make adding the information a lot easier. I hope it is appreciated :)

I have a problem.

If I change the name of the file that is produced in the configuration, it still seems to produce the file name frooglefeed.txt and not the new file name.

I want to use the name froogleupload.txt

Regards
Laurie

I am using the latest version.

Just to add to my problem above, if you add the filename directly to the database it works fine, so it must be something to do with the code that writes the new file name to the datatabase in the configuration. I have tried to find where this is in the code but with no results. Anyone any ideas. Does anyone else have the same problem.

I'm still using Andrew's latest version ;-)

I sure hope Andrew returns to the Zen Cart mod development!

That shouldn't be possible since his version doesn't support the product_type...?
