Yeah, I tried FWR's version he made back in Jan 2010, however I'm using his latest version of Ultimate SEO URLs 5 released March 2011 and what his instructions tell me to replace, no longer exists...LOL!

I think I'll just hold off on GoogleBase/Froogle until you release the new version supporting the new Google requirements and Ultimate SEO URLs 5. ;)

Thanks again Jack!

Peace,
Chris

I've just run into an issue with this contrib tonight.

Only half of my products are getting exported into the feed file. Anyone have any ideas why this would happen?

Im having a bit of an odd problem.

The feeder creates the txt doc. but it does not add all my products.  I have recently had SEO ulrs and headers installed for me.

Any products added after this insalation do not show up on the feed. I have changed the settings to 'true' for ultimate ulr, but it makes no differance.

Any ideas what might be causing this problem?

Thanks

Hugo

Did you check your products quantity as the post before yours mentioned?

That usually happens when there is a problem with googles server. Wait a few hours, or a day, and try again.

Google is not allowing descriptions that are too long.  I'm a tard when it comes to programming so if someone could create a fix to cut off any descriptions that are too long after 255 characters that would be killer.

Thanks

What is the actual error since that is not their policy. They recommend 500 to 1,000 characters but will allow up to 10,000 characters.

Yes, but it is only for my clients at the moment. It will probably be uploaded in the next month or so.

Like with many members here, I have my own site. I can't provide such information publicly due to forum rules though.

hello jack,

i need to have the product_category for google done.


i can use the AddMoreFields_V_1.2.zip to add a field product_category in the  let's say --products table ( haven't decided yet)

now on to googlefeeder.php  version 2.8 the latest.

i tried to follow along with BRAND column and added Products category throughout the script

have to add to /*************** BEGIN MASTER SETTINGS ******************/

define('OPTIONS_ENABLED_PRODUCT_CATEGORY', 1);

and then
 
//the following only matter if the matching option is enabled above.
define('OPTIONS_AGE_RANGE', '20-90 years');
define('OPTIONS_Product_CATEGORY', category>subcategories>subsub');

and then later

$extraFields = '';
if (OPTIONS_ENABLED_PRODUCT_CATEGORY == 1  && strlen(OPTIONS_PRODUCT_CATEGORY) == 0) { //PRODUCT_CATEGORY is enabled but not set so load from database
  $extraFields .= ' products.products_category as products_category, ';

 //create optional section
if(OPTIONS_ENABLED == 1) {
   if(OPTIONS_ENABLED_PRODUCT_CATEGORY== 1)			 $output .= "\ products_category";  

  
//optional values section
			   if(OPTIONS_ENABLED_CATEGORY == 1)
			$output .= "\t" . (isset($row->products_category) ? $row->products_category : (strlen(OPTIONS_PRODUCTS_CATGORY) ? OPTIONS_PRODUCTS_CATEGORY : "Not Supported"));


i am not a php wizard or anything but do think this will work??  or ama i missing something?


thanks,

craig

The field should be named "google_product_category" and placed in the products_description table since that is what is coded into the next version. You don't have to do that but if you upgrade to the next version when it becomes available, it won't work with your database.

Be sure to add the code to add the title too.

Try connecting to googles server directly using an ftp program, like Filezilla. The url is google.uploads.com. The login is in your googlefeeder.php file. If you can connect that way, then something on the server is preventing the connection and you will need to talk to your host about it. If it fails, it means you are using the wrong username/password.

Hi,

I have 1845 products. When I run this feeder why do I only get 1645 products to show up in the Google txt file, however when I do the Bing txt file it shows all the products?

Thanks,
Pete
I find the fun in everything.

Try turning off the ignore products if quantity is 0 option.
