[OLD] Google Merchant module Version 1.12.0 by Numinix

Hi, i have the 1.12 feed installed, everything seems fine apart from the (SIZE) attribute not showing,

Is there something i need to edit to get it to show,, i have the stock by attributes installed but as far as i can tell , it aint doing anything its just in the admin with data, but doesnt help with anything so dont know why it had to be installed with the google feed module??

Any idea..

SBA is not required - none of the modules mentioned in the config settings or the documentation are required.

Documention instructions:

This module supports adding required fields as attributes to your products (you can set them to display only and then modify your template to not show display only attributes). Supported attributes are: Size, Color, Age Group, Gender, Material, Pattern, UPC, ISBN, EAN, and Google Product Category. Please use these exact names when creating your Option Names in Zen Cart.

Did you name it SIZE or Size?

Think ive done it , thanks for that,, just check though,
my feed data has now more than doubled in size and had added the individual size of the item as a new piece of data, would that be correct??

Or should it say (size) 2,3,4,5,6, against each item

Sounds right to me.

torvista:

In post #84 I recommended commenting out some code in google_base to stop the creation of two <g:google_product_category> after each item.

I found that by doing that, the few items I have with attributes were not assigned this field.

So, I've commented out the code in googlefroogle.php instead and that seems to work for both simple and attributed products.

/if (GOOGLE_PRODUCTS_DEFAULT_PRODUCT_CATEGORY != '') {//steve commented out to stop duplication
$google_product_category = $dom->createElement('g:google_product_category');
$google_product_category->appendChild($dom->createCDATASection($default_google_product_category));
$item->appendChild($google_product_category);
}/

Thanks for that, it worked a treat!

Not sure if someone can see an answer to this, but maybe someone might have something similiar..

Creating the feed it says:

Google Merchant Center File Complete In 32.163906 Seconds **629 **of 669 Records

putting up a "test" feed it uploads 629 items,,

checking the feed in a browser there is 641 items

But i have **490 **products in zen cart admin

anyone good at number crunching to get an answer,,,

p.s this morning i got the feed to show individual sizes in the feed,,

but since then i added new items and they havent shown indidual sizes only one size, even though the attributes are set for different sizes on the new items??

just looking through my feed, the products that should have attributes have them..
but something isnt quite right,
Most of them have attributes but there is some that dont show the attributes,,
The ones that are not showing do actually have attributes assigned to them, taken from the same attributes controller as the rest of them??

any idea why it shows for some and not others??

According to Jeff the only ones that are supposed to show are:

Size, Color, Age Group, Gender, Material, Pattern, UPC, ISBN, EAN, and Google Product Category

are all of them a specific variant such as size or is it a variety of different ones that are missing?

An example is like
(yellow shoes 10)
(yellow shoes 9)
(yellow shoes 8)
etc down the sizes

But then say

(red shoes)??
??
No size varient beside (Red shoes) and only one entry for the example (Red shoes)

But for others i have the entries for all size variants,,

Hope that made sense lol..

and you have checked the specific missing ones to be sure they were done correctly? (stupid question but had to ask)

I checked the data from one that shows the variant sizes next to one that only shows (one size),,

I cant see any difference apart from missing variants,

Doubled checked the website and the variable sizes are on the product listing but not on the feed,,,,

from my previous question you answered , i did have (shoe size) instead of just (Size) so i changed it and the varients showed up,,

I then added more products with the (size) attribute and they didnt show,,

since noticed that one of the other catergory that did have attribute (size), no longer has them..

I've looked at the code but I'm having a hard event figuring out what's he's doing much less being able to tell you what has gone wrong.

The attributes start at line 263 in googlefroogle.php if anyone wants to take a look.

Has anyone else found missing products with attributes?

I put one of the items that were missing attributes,, in the shopping cart and it says** items out of stock**,,, But they are in stock

they are clicked "instock" with an amount available,,,

and they show in the feed as "instock"

Got rid of that above by resetting the stock by attributes and it came back as instock,,

So i thought i wonder if it sorted the feed, so i ran the feed again and ALL attributes that were previosly missing are now there!!

initial glance at new feed seems to be good (all (size)attribute are there,,,

Hi got it sorted, just by chance i put an item that didint have the attribute showing in the shoppping cart and got sorted above ,cheers

Quick question (may have already been answered but I couldn't find it)

Currently our attributes are set up like this:

Helmet Size
Jacket/Vest Size
Boot Size

etc.

For this to work, am I going to have to rename all of these to just "Size"?

Any idea why the additional images have been removed from the new version??
