Google Base Feeder Support Thread [OLD]

I take it my suggestion 2 or 3 posts above, which you ignored, didnt work for you then...

ceegeeaar,

I didn't "ignore" your post, I simply missed it.

It may be easy to fix in the code for someone who knows HOW to code but I haven't a clue. Could you show me what to do? I'd greatly appreciate it.

while ($attempt < 3 || !$success) { // two attempts, one with pasv off, one with on
            if ($attempt = 0) {
                ftp_pasv($cd, false); // on first attempt, turn pasv off
            } else {
                ftp_pasv($cd, true); // on second attempt, turn pasv on
            }

In the googlefroogle.php in your shops root directory find the above bit of code, around line 441 for me.
Swap the false and true around. You can change the text shown too just below there if you wish to.
If you are not generating the xml file to start with though then ftp is not your problem, you might have some content which is causing problems as it seems to with IE.

I have just uploaded the latest Google Base Feeder v1.6.2

Smashing product I must say.

It grabbed all my products ok but when viewing the file the currency was in USD. My default current is GBP so shouldn't be in that format??

Also, when I ran the document feed the result was zero (nothing in my file). What is the document feed for?

I hope somebody can help me.

Thanks in advance.

Sorted out the currency problem. All uploaded to Google so hopefully will appear in 24 hours!

Still nothing in my document folder tho?

I have version 1.3.5 of this contribution and want to update it. Does anyone know if there's a way I can update directly to the newest version or will I need to install each of the many updates in order?

[numinix]

just run the uninstall.sql from your version, overwrite all the files and run install.sql. You'll need to reenter your configuration information and register the new file name (name_products.xml). Your current list will remain active until you delete it so you can make sure your new list is up and running before deleting your old feed.

Thanks! I'll get on that as soon as I finish up something else I'm working on for my site.
