Google Base Feeder Support Thread [OLD]

I think they will. Just setup a schedule for them to craw your feed every week, month etc.

Unfortunately my products are still not showing up on a search. Any other ideas??

Is Google accepting them in Google Merchant Center? If they are they are being listed somewhere.

They are being listed in my google merchant account with no errors reported. It never showed any issues in my merchant account!

Click on products in the Google merchant account. Click one of your products and see what it looks like. Copy the name of the product, open a new browser to Google.com, go to the top of the page click shopping, enter your product name and search for the name of your product and store name. You should see it there.

So it is not showing any errors and Google says they are active and viewable. If this is the case they should be there. I check and I can not find your product either. Give it a couple of days to see if they appear, if not you need to contact Google and find out what going on with them. Google base feeder is doing what it is suppose to do if this is the case.

I did contact google previously & got the below reply

"I looked into this issue and I see that you have
included CDATA in the item listing's attributes. Please note, CDATA is a special notation for data that allows you to use & (and ONLY &). Therefore, should not be used for
any other characters."

I don't understand this code, I know the CDATA comments are still use in this version of google_base.php?
