The answer is in the reply above yours. :-)

The option for 'condition' is in the configuration. You cannot set it 'per product' using this mod. You'd have to edit the xml file manually.

Right, thanks. But where does it get the condition option from? For instance I would want all of mine to be "new".

In the configuration, you have only three options to choose from (radio buttons): new, used and refurbished.

You get it from your store admin/configurations/google_base

We all forget about something some once in a while

That is the only set back I can see.

Untrue, if you install Auction Site Attributes you can set it manually. That module is no longer being developed though and will be replaced by something less invasive as it currently overwrites a lot of files in the admin. Once we have a better solution it will be released publicly.

                  if (GOOGLE_BASE_ASA == 'true' && $products->fields['products_condition'] != '') {
                    $content["condition"] = '<g:condition>' . $products->fields['products_condition'] . '</g:condition>';
                  } else {
                    $content["condition"] = '<g:condition>' . GOOGLE_FROOGLE_CONDITION . '</g:condition>';
                  }

Thanks for clearing that up numinix I didn't realize that you could use that for this. Sorry for miss leading people.

Has anyone tried changing the store URL to another URL different to the site that you are running Zen on to see if it changes... cause it doesn't seem to!
I'm running a multisite and have been using the feeder for over a year with multisite mod and never had an issue. Thought i would change the feed to a different store address and it don't work! Still produces the XML file which is fine, but its not changing the link address to the different store url...

I'll probably rename the module to "Numinix Product Fields" so that it is less confusing. But, we want to have a better method for adding the additional fields without having to keep modifying the core files.

That sounds great, Keep up the good work. I'm sure their will be some who will need it. For myself everything I sale is new so it would not benefit me.

Hey Numinix, great mod..

But I still have one problem that changing files doesnt seem to help. Maybe you can shed some light on where i can insert the right info. Everything seems to be working fine, with one exception. All of my products inserted are missing the "product type" attribute.

Missing Product Type Values - xxx items (100%)

Your item list is missing product type values. Please submit product type values for all items.

In the config, the options for product type are top, bottom, full. I have tried all 3 and have just left it on full. none seem to get the right info inserted. Is there something im missing? I really dont want to edit every item to insert the product type. That could take weeks. Any help would be greatly appreciated
