Google Base Feeder Support Thread [OLD]

[stitchnkitty]

Good evening fellow zenners!

I have been on the google site and have decided to tackle a google based Rss Feed.

I created a 3 item feed and was trying to debug and look at the prospect of loading on all my products - what work.

stumbled on a felliow zenner who had developed the feed thru zencart. Soooooo Duh - should have know the smart zenners would have already thought of this.

I am starting from scratch and jumping in the middle of a 234posting thread and have no idea where to start - Just a point as to where to start my reading! this thread is over 2 years old and alot is probably invalid by now. or I might be wrong here to!

Pointing is good! TIA

Hello all,

When I view my products feed the url is www.mysite.com/feed/domain_products.xml and you see all the products there, but when you click on any of the product links I get 404 error and the url looks like www.mysite.com/language/en/category/manufacturer/product_name

Obviously I don't have language (en) in my urls. I have looked into my google base feed admin and there's nothing there. I also use site_map XML module which is working fine.

I have 1.3.8a version and 1.7.4 (latest) version for google base. Anyone also encountered this problem ? How to get rid of that english instance from my urls.

Thanks.

You can check your store admin/configurations/google_base and see what you have set it for. Show Feed Language true or false. You also need to upgrade to the latest version of Google base. See my post above for that.

Hello there,

Thank you everything is sorted. For some reason when I don't fill up Query limit and Query offset, it creates products but same language problem, but when I set a query limit it loads products and language problem is also gone. Not sure what causes this problem.

My feed gets disapproved with in 2 minutes of uploads for the last 2 months or so and before it was all ok. I have contacted google and they just sent me an automated mail.

I'm pretty much sure its not the module but something to do with my site and I'll keep looking for the solution.

Thank you for your help.

Enjoy your weekend.
