Google Base Feeder Support Thread [OLD]

[lankeeyankee]

Hi
Thanks for the mod
I cant get this to work with Magic SEO URLS on.
I have paid for and installed the Magic SEO URL mod, but when i set it to True in Zen cart Google Base Feeder settings, when I go to build the feed i just get the blank white page.

When i turn it off it works.

So... the company who make Magic SEO URL are VERY unhelpful, they just tell you to ask whoever made the Google Base Feeder.

So I am stuck! I saw someone else on this forum had this problem and managed to fix it.. but they didnt say how!

Can someone let me know the answer?

Should i just turn off the magic seo url setting in feeder, make the feed and then upload it then turn the magic seo url setting back on again? Will it work?

Please help! I just spend 70 euros on this mod becuase in the google base instructions it says works with Magic Seo URL but I just get the blank screen!

I think you have to buy the magic seo url addon for the feeds from the numinix site, the author of this google feed. or you could get your money back from magic seo url and use the free and excellently supported simple seo url that is available here.

Thanks... well ive tried to get google base feed to work with simple seo url and i just get the blank page.

Ive tried it with magic seo url setting ON and OFF and still get the blank page when trying to make the feed.

Ive tried with this Magic SEO url too as mentioned previously, and that doesnt work.

I am interested to know if ANYONE here has got Google Base feeder to work with ANY seo url script!

Thanks

I have two sites using the Google Base feeder. One using Magic SEO and one using Ultimate SEO (it's old an unsupported but this was before Simple SEO was available). That may not help your problem, but is a reference point.

I'd recommend posting the question in the simple seo url thread, well first do a search in that thread to see if someone has already asked about google base feeder, there probably already are questions and answers about it there, but if not then I know that the author is extremely helpful and will help you get it sorted.

Some of the products to not click through to my site once uploaded to Google Shopping. Sometimes it just takes you to a Google page that displays all the info - instead of linking directly to the product.

Any particular reason this would be happening?

After exploring this further, it appears that this might have something to do with products that are on special.

Can anyone else confirm this is happening?

Hi

I've set the RSS feed up and you'll be pleased to know everything works fine!....

however (you knew that was coming!)...I have a quick question that I can't seem to find an answer on....which is...

My store shows it prices as default without tax (it's a B2B store) and of course Google Base needs it's prices in gross with tax - is there a simple way to feed the gross price into it instead of the net price that is being shown?

At the minute I get round this by going to My Store settings, enabling the prices to show with tax, then I build the product xml and then go back and switch the prices back to show without tax. I know this is pretty simple and takes all of 2 minutes but being an ultimate automated man (or is that lazy?) I like the idea of just letting it do it all automatically as it would if my store was showing gross prices.

Look forward to a reply sometime.

Cheers

Hi All,

I am having a problem with my Google Base products that wasn't there before. I had everything set up correctly, I had my Google Base published perfectly and searchable items apeared in Google Products perfectly, all until a few days ago. Now I go into Google Base and find the message "YOU DO NOT HAVE ANY PUBLISHED ITEMS". I have re-uploaded my data-feed and when I click the data-feed tab, it says, "585 of 585 items inserted (Items will expire on Sep 27, 2009 10:43 am BST.) ". However, when I click on the active-items tab it says, "You do not have any published items.".

When I click on the performance-tab it shows the charts which detail product performance, but when I scroll along to last Sunday's date, the chart takes a complete nose dive indicating that for some reason my products were made inactive on that date.

Can anyone please help? This has caused me a very noticeable decrease in sales and site traffic. My site was really picking up but over the last week or so I've been getting hardly any sales. It's only now that I've noticed why :-(

My website is http://www.limelites.co.uk
google-base display-name is 'Limelites'
account id is '5533149'
example url to a product in my data-feed is 'http://www.limelites.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_4&products_id=684'

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help....
