Maybe a stupid question, But even they need answered lol,,

Our site sells a variety of items of different descriptions,, in Google Taxonomy can i add more than one catergory because only choosing one from the tree master category wont include other items,,

for example if i had this items i could add this :

Arts & Entertainment > Collectables > Rocks & Fossils

then : Office Supplies > General Office Supplies > Labels & Tags

I don't know of you can add more than one Google Product Category in the configuration, but I do know that only using one will not exclude any products. I also sell a variety of items, use only one Google Product Category, and everything gets inserted just fine.

Thanks, I was reading that it was better to be more specific when choosing the categories in taxonomy for better search results,
Thats fine if you only sells a specific product and can narrow it right down in the tree,,

Just thought it was a big vague in instructions for sites with a varied product range,,
I havent uploaded a finished feed yet, so was just needing to get every question cleared up first,, Thanks

Hi
According to the tools search it doesn't appear in the products but only here:

/home2/effectiv/public_html/fldr/nddbc.html

Line #7 : <meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no" />

/home2/effectiv/public_html/fldr/includes/templates/template_default/common/html_header.php

Think ive broke something,, i installed numinix product fields to work with google merchant feed, but somehow it has knocked out ceon url mapping, in admin in the products bit ,, the option to tick the box for ceon mapping has vanished??/

Check on your file merging.

Wouldnt have a clue what that means??

Not actually sure if i installed numinix properly,,

I installed the main part of numinix then installed the aditional product field i required which was the upc_isbn , that seemed to have worked as it is in the product page of admin and when i checked the feed the EAN number i included was there aswell??

but it killed ceon mapping in there

Hi
Installed v 1.12.0 1.39h cart
no previous versions installed. new fresh install

Feeds producing double google categories:

<g:google_product_category><![CDATA[Arts & Entertainment > Collectibles]]></g:google_product_category>

<g:google_product_category><![CDATA[Arts & Entertainment > Collectibles]]></g:google_product_category>

We get these doubles only when there are no attributes defined, using Numinix xtra fields. If at least one attribute is defined then there are no double google product categories

ceon uri mapping and numinix product fields write code to some of the same files and need to merged. If you just uploaded the product fields mod without merging then you overwrote the ceon code.

So it's not just us. This site is not using numinix product fields.

Compare the folder/file structures of both mods to see which files they have in common. Of those files that are common to both mods, use winmerge to compare the code and merge ceon code back in. Ceon comments his code well so you shouldn't have any problems.

I have question that is sort of linked to the 'out of stock' issues some other posters have mentioned.

We have products that can only be purchased in store due to Sony's requirements. But we want these products to appear on Google Shopping so that customers who are interested can visit the showroom & purchase them.

Now we have set these products as 'call for price' via the admin section. On the page it does display the product price but simply has 'This product can only be bought in store' as the only option. You can view the product here .

The products are listed as in stock and have quantity assigned to them. Does anyone know how we can get these products to be generated by the Google Merchant Centre Feed?

Four predefined values accepted:

* 'in stock'
* 'available for order'
* 'out of stock'
* 'preorder'

This product can only be bought in store Is not an option for Google.

winmerge is by far the BEST and it's free. i use it all the time. a great program to have.

If you products get approved try and not upload a new feed. It killed my search and I had to start all over again.

Just thought I would mention that.

Ive never entered into this stuff before:no: think ive found both sets of files for:

MODIFIED FILES:

admin/includes/modules/update_product.php
admin/includes/modules/product/collect_info.php
admin/includes/modules/product/preview_info.php

sorta sussed out how Winmerge works,,,

so would it be a case of merging the ceon with the numinix files and upload,,
:oops:

For Category issues please read this.

ceon code will be easier to merge into the files already containing the numinix product fields code, rather than the other way around, and then upload.

Appreciate your reply. But the Google Merchant Feed Module via Zen Cart is not even generating these products so it's not an issue of Google rejecting them.

One other issue is that shipping is set under Zones. Within zones we have a table rate set up for the UK. I've set Zones as the shipping method & selected GB as the Table Zone ID. However the google feed shows the shipping cost as £0. I've also tried the zones table rate option within shipping method.

Any help would be appreciated. :smile:

After a nerve racking first time merging files!! It worked:clap::clap: Thanks for your help:yes:

Since im back up to speed again, Question about inputting (Size) into google merchant,

for example a pair of shoes has 8 different sizes and each size has a different product code,,,

How do i get around that,

I have stock by attributes and numinix product fields.

Thanks
