Google Base Feeder Support Thread [OLD]

[PinkLeopard]

Hello,

I uploaded google base and I only have access to google in configuration. When I go to tools the google is not available. My feed file is chmod 777. Do I have to change the name of my admin file to match my other admin folder. Or do I have to put all folders in similar or like directors (admin to admin) includes to includes, etc. Not sure what I'm doing wrong but I can't access google in tools. I'll attach the directions that came in the unzipped folder.Install
1.Unzip and upload all files to your store directory (except .sql files);
2.Chmod feed directory to 777
3.Go to Admin->Tools->Install SQL Patches and install googlefroogle.sql by copying and pasting (do not upload);
4.Go to http://base.google.com and create/sign to your account. Follow the link on the right hand side of their website to create your FTP account.
5.Go to Admin->Configuration->Google Base Configuration and setup all parameters;
6.Register your bulk upload .xml file using the same name in your Google Base Configuration at base.google.com
7.Go to Admin->Tools>Google Base Feeder and follow instructions to create, view, and upload feed file.

I am not sure I understand you completely...but if you changed the name of admin folder to another name THEN you would upload the admin files to YOUR admin folder. This would the case for all add-ons just for future reference.

For example, if you renamed your admin folder to "flowers" then you would upload the admin directory (google feeder) to "flowers".

The other files that came with google base feeder would go in the appropriate folders.

Once you have upload all the files to the correct directories then you would install the sql patch.

Additionally, do you have a google merchant account?

If not, you need to register with them, create an user name & password. That username & password would then be added in YOUR google admin configuration.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
